It's the fact that the main character is 300 years old and can basically travel around the world with no restrictions yet has only went to Western Europe (only London and Paris) and the US?? Where were the people of color?? And you're in NYC one of the most mixed places in the world yet we only meet one person of color?? Weird af to me. Also Addie was very boring and underdeveloped. For her to be 300 years old she has the mindset of a teenager which is also very weird. In all I didnt even get halfway through the book causs it was very underwhelming.

I'm glad more people had issues with Addie, I felt alone for a moment with my opinion but it was a 3 star read for me and that was me feeling generous. I really wanted to love the book (since everyone hyped it up). I felt very conflicted by it because there were parts where it felt like a 4 star read and parts where I felt like I didn't even care if I finished the book. Addie never owned the repercussion of her decisions. She kept blaming the darkness for everything until the end (when he was perfectly clear from the start). She just never learned! She lived 300 years and never got any wiser and stayed stubborn for the sake of being stubborn. She was even willing to sacrifice an innocent soul because she couldn't accept the fact that the person she loved also made his own decision... I don't know... There are teenagers wiser than that (Anne Frank wink, wink). Too many thoughts... but definitely an unpopular opinion.
@The2cookiez3 жыл бұрын
Yes yes yes!! Addie was so immature and her woe is me attitude put me off and I honestly didn’t like her because of it. I really wanted to love this book but it just let me down until the end. If there was a story based on the idea of the ending, I would read that

in “the invisible life of addie larue”, addie talked so much about her love for humanity and how she can make a mark in this world that i felt more interested in the rare few characters she’s met (which you’re right, is weird for someone who’s managed to live for over three hundred years) than addie herself. and that interest in itself was spotty because reading throughout all this, i knew there was a lot of things missing in the exploration of how much societies were affected throughout the years addie lived and the grief and hope different people have had to live through in their lives. it just seemed like addie was so focused on herself that it became hard to empathize with her because it felt like such a narrow perspective. i think that despite this book touching on some darker themes that were very well-developed, it still skipped out on a more diverse range of characters and their different experiences throughout history

I don't think I've seen a single person who wasn't dissapointed by King of Crows and it's no different for me. Most people find the middle part drags on and nothing happens, but I actually liked this part the most. Throughout almost the entire book I thought it would be my new favourite in the series. And then the ending happened and everything was so rushed and full of plot conveniences and the author breaking her own rules, which is one of my least favourite things in a fantasy book because it instantly kills all the suspense. So yeah, I'm sad that I didn't like this more, but I really enjoyed hearing your thoughts on it!

I’m so glad to finally hear someone having a different take on Addie Larue. I was so excited to read it but the characters fell so flat to me. Addie and Henry were just so boring to me and at times felt very whiny. I loved the beginning when we got to learn about her making this deal and I loved learning more about her dynamic with Luc, but those scenes were so small in comparison to the rest of the book. It felt like I was just being dragged through it and waiting for the small moments when it picked up. The beginning and the end I enjoyed but I wish the rest had the same pacing and faster paced plot. I gave it a generous three stars and definitely agree with everything you said about it! I’ve wanted to read her other works but this was my first YA/adult work I read from her so now I’m not so sure if reading ADSOM or her other books is worth it.

ah the same feeling you had with “darius the great is not okay” is the same that i had with “clap when you land” by elizabeth acevedo, which i guess you can say is a book for dominicans? it doesn’t necessarily touch too much on identity when it comes to being dominican-american, as one of the main characters is, but the focus on family and the pride for dominican culture and the island itself was really familiar to me and felt so personal, i cried afterwards. it makes me smile to see how seen you felt with darius in “darius the great is not okay”. seeing how much the author focused on friendship and family with darius, it made him become one of my favorite ya characters of all-time. hearing your thoughts as someone who this book is specifically targeted to, it was really meaningful to me because when you get to see yourself in a story about a culture that you’ve always felt like you didn’t have the right to be a part of, and then you come to see the character themself be able to connect with it through the people they love and come to befriend, it changes a lot for you and brings so much hope, and we all need that in stories like these

The only book from your list I've read so far is This Is How You Lose The Time War. I read it last year in our book club, and I just - uuuugh I loved it so much!!!!! I'm not really a fan of a very poetic writing style usually, but I thought it really suited the story that was being told. Having a group to discuss and dissect it with also made me enjoy it more, I think - because, like Hannah said, it's pretty sparse in terms of literal descriptions; it leaves a lot to your own imagination. So getting to expand on what I was imagining was happening, and hearing what all of my friends thought too, really helped flesh that out for me. I think I got a more full reading experience through that than if I had just sat down and read it in one sitting. (Which you can do, because it's a very short book. Basically a novella.)

Darius the Great is not okay is one of the best books I think I've ever read. I've never seen depression depicted in a book that felt so deeply similar to my own struggles. i cried like 4 different times throughout the book

Not sure if you’ll see this but I just wanted to thank you for having this channel. I first came across your videos a year ago at the beginning of the lockdown and you’ve introduced me to the world of booktube. I had been in a reading slump for years up to that point (I’d only read 1-2 books per year) but your videos inspired me to get back to my love for reading 🥰

Your addie thoughts blew my mind. When I read it I gave it an easy 5 stars but then all the thoughts you had I totally agreed with and when I read it I just didn’t think that deep into it and I’m shocked at how thoughtful your brain is when analyzing a book lol

Oh shit Amal was my creative writing teacher in university. She is very amazing and her writing is really good!

20:36 the thing is since people forget about her and Addie can’t leave a mark, she can’t really travel because she can’t get tickets or go on a ship because people would forget her or she would get in trouble. A big mess
@Saiakamal3 жыл бұрын
Yeah, I remember V.E shwab saying in an interview that she could've made her travel but the deal was not for Addie to travel, Addie just wanted time not a chance to travel around the world, and I don't see any problem with that I don't know why it's a big deal...
