This uses their own system, as others pointed out. You kind of invalidate your own argument by the virtue that it IS their own internal info. It’s not the NYT best seller list, not that it’s perfect, or any other non-biased system. You picked one that doesn’t use outside data.
Men could get over themselves. It’s a cultural attitude that education and reading is “feminine” and “weak”. Not an author problem, at the root it is a culture problem.
*apologies for errors, I have a dislocated & splinted finger and typing is complicated.
I am recovering from a brain injury and cannot read physical print and sometimes not even an ebook. A lot of my stuff is ebooks but about 1/4 is audiobooks.
This is a very ableist take and it’s exhausting. I see you’re chilling, OP, and that’s awesome, so this is for everyone else who claims we don’t read when we’re injured or have delays or other difficulties because it’s an audio book. It’s ableist gatekeeping.
Those of us who can’t physically read are still consuming the media. Telling me “you don’t read” is a problem that y’all need to deconstruct.
I’ll get back to physical media and be able to read more but right now this is where my brain is in the healing process. Audio books absolutely count.
