I enjoy fantasy books, but I've always struggled with the world-building because it's hard for me to wrap my brain around systems (magical, biological, etc.) that we don't experience in our reality. That led me to wondering, if our lives took place in a fantasy world, what aspects would the readers find weird or unrealistic? For me, it's gotta be toilets. Like, wdym we have special rooms with a bowl to dump our waste in? I think I'd find that crazy if it wasn't a normal part of our lives haha

Usually I love reading reviews and watching youtube channels of people reviewing books I read, does anyone have any recommendations of a channel I should watch??? No specific requirements tbh.

I’m in a reading slump. It’s not that i don’t have books to read and plenty on my tbr but i just rather look for more books or get on my phone. Any suggestions?

Taste is subjective, but the star rating system is supposed to communicate the average opinion of a book. However, the way we use the star rating system is also subjective. I’ve been wondering what other people mean when they give their ratings. So what do you think the different numbers of stars mean?

For me: 5 = Perfect 4 = Great 3 = Good 2 = Fine 1 = Bad 0 = Terrible

I’m curious whether this is about how others think or if folks have totally different rating systems in their heads.
