I think this is part of why I can’t seem to get into books aimed at adults, despite being 31. Juvenile and teen lit just attracts me so much more.

[(Anonymous)]

They need to hire actual artists again, and have them use color to paint an action scene from the book on the cover.

Generic photoshoot art, or arty but uninformative, just isn't cutting it.

[(Anonymous)]

Does it matter if Andi was sympathetic or not? We are following story of her sister who wants justice for death of her twin and not Andi's story

Also there is nothing wrong with not liking the movie, but also there is nothing wrong with movies that are not character driven. Sometimes I just want to see some shithead not getting everything

[dinogrrl]

Same. I've read some newer books and then looked at their generic covers and thought to myself "why couldn't they have chosen any number of Really Awesome Things, or even Really Boring Things, or anything at all that's unique to the story, to have done the cover of rather than generic space scene #375?"

And then I'm sad about it for a while. And then the urge to make an illustrated novel hits me again. I see your generic covers and raise you a unique cover AND cool drawings!

Can you be more specific about what didn't work for you in re balancing character depth and themes

[(Anonymous)]

I'm sorry, how was Andi a shithead? They helped him steal everything from her and then he murdered her.

[(Anonymous)]

TBH I loved the moved but I agree, character work was not really on the radar for what it was even trying to do.

[(Anonymous)]

Totally disagree. The characters are what sells it.

You're entirely in the right to do so, IMHO. He's incredibly gifted and he doesn't take himself super seriously. What else could you want?

I haven't seen either of these, and the images are pretty...uninformative.
What's your new kink, OP?

[The Witcher]

[(Anonymous)]

I’m genuinely curious to see if this will even happen. The core fandom bailed before season 2 and the people who liked season 2 mainly liked it because of Henry Cavill (either because of him as Geralt or because he was the one to keep s2 from being the same incoherent mess that s1 was). The showrunner is pretty shit tbh and the writing isn’t very good even for a Netflix show. It’s budget is so big that I can see Netflix pulling the cord before Liam even gets fitted for a wig.

I agree that the way they treated her was awful, but I’d really like to know why you consider her to be one of the best characters on the show. I just spent 5 minutes trying to remember who she even was and only got there because of the rest of your secret. As a character herself she made no impact on me.

So, yeah, what did you like about her so much?

[(Anonymous)]

Who are these characters and do you recommend this game on Switch?

Asking as someone who watched her cousins play on the N64, so I never really got play.

Also, it's a special nostalgia looking back at RP logs (I'm realizing I used to RP too, I just thought it was live action fic writing with friends over AIM lol).

I haven’t watched this show but I think I feel this secret. I’m always thinking about how romantic subplots are unnecessary and annoying, and then I turn around and ship all the characters like I’m FedEx.

What are your least favorite tagging issues on AO3?

I hate when people use / for platonic relationships instead of &. I always have to eyeball it hard to make sure I am about to read a father son fic and not baby Yoda and the Mandalorian hooking up.
