Now I can only hear Roald yelling “Stert!” lol

I always get about 2 pages in and then throw it across the room.

The MC having so many injuries but just pushing through the pain. Or never sleeping but pushing through it. Bodies just stop at a certain point. You can’t push through a broken ankle, at least not for long. And people need sleep, otherwise microsleeps and then hallucinations happen. But nope, the mc just keeps pushing through all of the injuries as they build up, For days or weeks.

Some books are just meant to be read aloud too. I read to my cat, he starts purring and falls asleep and when I stop reading he wakes up and tries to get me to start again.

I had a really high reading level as a young child so my parents decided I wouldn’t be allowed children’s books and I was to only read books at my reading level. YA wasn’t really a thing yet.

I picked out Blonde. I was like 7. Can’t even make myself watch the movie at this point 😳

Shocked it only took 28 years. Great article.
