I don’t remember where I saw it but I think Brendan Hunt was talking about how they made Nate go grey as his stress and anger got worse throughout his arc.

I hope that someone isn’t your friend.

They said, “I’ve seen people say it’s the best fantasy they’ve read and I’m like…. Oh so you don’t actually read fantasy?”

Does this not imply they think this book is not fantasy?

If you’re going to bash people for liking this book, at least define what “fantasy” means to you before saying a book isn’t fantasy. Don’t be so mean. For some people, this may be their favorite fantasy book. And so what if it is?

Why didn’t you stop after the first book?

Did you read the whole series?

Pick up the Norton Critical editions of epic poems. They have footnotes and lots of essays in the back of the book that dissect the poet’s life, the impact of the poem in history and literary scenes, and in depth looks at language, imagery, religious inspiration, etc.

My hobby would be dressing like a man because women before the 21st century were property, forced to give birth (moreso than today), and raped and killed.

Did you know that prior to 1993, marital rape was not a crime? How utterly sad that is. And even now, marital rape is not the same as non-marital rape in the courts. Hell no would I ever want to live in an era that’s not today. Yeah we still have problems but it’s a lot better than 20, 30, 40 years before.

I guess I’ll be the first to not pick a classic or literary fiction: House of Earth and Blood by Sarah J Maas.

Oh good, another post about Lolita.
