I think one of the main issues with Celaena’s character is the intent behind it. Theoretically, a character that is a brash, impulsive, egotistical assassin would be a fun character to read - if those flaws were acknowledged and they impacted her relationships with other characters. Instead, those characterizations were just thrown out there but don’t impact the plot in any way. You can take away those traits and everything would still happen the same way, meaning that Celaena was written that way ‘just because’ and it shows. I feel like it is bad writing of a potentially interesting and multi-faceted character, and it also doesn’t help that the ‘heroes’ and ‘villains’ read pretty much the same way. It’s just sub-par writing 🤷🏻‍♀️

1000% I like unlikable characters but she wasn't written that way. I don't like the idea that we have to read 10 books for a character to grow since plenty of other books are able to show some within one book... There was potential but it was a frustrating read!

I actually DO really hate romances in books because more often than not 1. That's ALL the story becomes about and forget about the fact that they're held captive by cannibalistic pirates, but hey at least we know how much she loves the way his eyes sparkle in the moonlight. 2. They make dumb as hell and unrealistic decisions for the person they love that puts them in avoidable situations even though they just met 5 pages ago aka "insta idiot", a byproduct of insta love

Here is my 2% about When Dimple meet Rishi . It's promoted for it's diversity and how people should read it because of it's representation of Indian-American and as if this book is kind of revolutionary or new in the literary world . Here is a thing , have these people heard of Jhumpa Lahiri ? The Pulitzer winning Indian-American author who writes about Indian-Americans . So if you're so interested in reading an Indian -American book why not pick up one of her books which have been around for decade. So it's not that people were interested in our stories , they only got interested when someone sent them a copy . Wanna read about Indians or Indian-Americans ? ask people like us

Absolutely! I think most people don't go out of their way to find new books to read that are out of their comfort zone (me included!). This one was a new YA book that was pushed by the publishing company that's why we read it (we kept seeing it mentioned!).

The color pages in some books, like The Gunslinger, are put together in the middle so that they can be printed on the same signature(s). It's cheaper to only run the pages you need to in 4-color. I agree the book is a bit of a mess, but I work in printing and when I first learned this it was mind blowing.

That's really unfortunate. The author's gonna lose a lot of readers because they didn't make sure the first book made sense on its own.

For the few that I read, that you covered, I completely agree with you. The Attachment creeped me out so bad. The Selection was one of those books that I got sucked into but don't think I would ever read it again. I hated the dark tower series.

i totally agree with you on the the love triangle thing in the selection series and the hunger games. The thing that kinda made the love triangle acceptable at the beginning in the selection series was the fact that she was together with aspen or whatever his name is first before she came to the palace, and was clearly still in love with him even though they'd broken up, so i think that the love triangle actually developed relatively naturally, but i disliked homeboy more and more because the author kept the love triangle up way too long. with the hunger games, the complete introduction of that katniss-gale-peeta thing was so forced (hell, i also thought her romantic love for peeta came kinda out of nowhere)

I really did enjoy the Mara Dyer series, but I don't think the first one is the best. The thing with Noah claiming Mara isn't like other girls is because they have complimenting powers and he "saw" her before he even met her. I think that's why he says she's not like other girls and why he was drawn to her. But I agree, it's not a perfect story. (But I still love it!)

Hahaha I HATED Throne Of Glass and the "she wrote it when she was 16" argument pisses me off because I'm like, This is a published book. I don't care if you're 16 or 61. Published books should not be crap. And on the topic of her being malnourished and stuff... she's probably bone thin with rotting teeth and hair falling out (which is what happens when you're malnourished) and yet she's still the most beautiful girl ever. And I'm just like 🙄🙄🙄 (I actually finished the series. Throne Of Glass was shit but Kingdom Of Ash was genuinely one of the best books I've ever read.)

I read the Unbecoming of Mara Dyer when I was just getting into reading, and I got really emotionally attached to the characters, mainly because I hadn't read a lot of books at that point. I recently did a reread and I could acknowledge that the series wasn't well written, it still holds a special place in my heart

I've read only the Gunslinger and not the rest of the series and really enjoyed it :3 In the beginning I was really confused and turned off, but when I just turned off my brain and drifted along it was a really interesting trip. It made no sense, but I loved that it didn't.
