Notes:

Sorry, early today!

Also: I'm not going to officially warn for tongue-in-cheek "triggers" just to provide anyone with a fandom-specific in-joke when there are none in the secret.

The "I'm Conflicted About Buying This Book" anon returns

(Anonymous) 2013-01-12 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
A while ago, I posted here saying that I was interested in a particular book, but had made the mistake of looking at the reviews, and was bothered by how mixed they were. Well, I finally got my hands on said book yesterday, and so far I really, really like it. Sure, it's not The Most Excellent Work of Literature Ever, but I tend to forget one very important fact: I don't care.

I do agree with the one thing all the reviews agreed on: that it gets kind of rushed as it goes on, and that there is a lot of wasted potential that could have been explored if the book were twice the length it is, but...if nothing else, I am a skilled headcanonist, and can easily reimagine anything that doesn't satisfy me.

Sadly, I already know the ending. Death, betrayal, and friendships demolished all around. This, my comm-mates, is what I practice for. This is where my talent shines.

...Why would you not specify what book you're talking about? I'm sure I'm not the only one who missed your original thread (provided you even mentioned it there).

IIRC OP did not, in fact, specify the book in the original thread.

Yeah, that figures. Just makes no sense to me >:\

I did not, but it is not relevant. (Okay, fine, it's a guilty pleasure.) One does not need to be familiar with the previous thread; I am merely venting mine own happinesse unto yon fandome of thy secrets.

personally I completely get where you're coming from - I don't want to tell people about my guilty-pleasure-fandoms either, and I don't - but you do run into this problem when you then try to meta about them. It's a violation of the Second Rule, I think. If you don't want to talk about something, you have to not talk about it. Unless, you know, you're anon and you don't care what people think. :P
