All these Gen Z weirdos criticizing stories before they actually read them and giving them low or high ratings based on their “moods” and “hearsay”.

so like the same thing that happens on every public review site everywhere for the rest of time because that’s the effect that mass social media has had on everyone

I think that only people who have read the book (or DNF’d it) should be allowed to review it, and people should have to write a minimum of two full sentences.

i see ur point
but i’ve also definitely written a goodreads review on a book i only read 1 line of. in my defense… the line was “she was smart, despite all the curves” and i just feel there’s no recovering from that

If I ever started that way, or the like, it would be for the jokes that would ensue.

i dropped it back in the dirt i found it in.
i mean i skimmed the rest of the page (it was the start of chapter 69 lol) and it seemed to be the mmc thinking back on his mommy scrubbing the floor (??), written in that weird r/menwritingwomen style iykwim.
“despite all the tight curves on the metal playground slide she’d been shunted down as an infant”
or poking fun at people like the author of this trash book

Yes, write so much that you hack the matrix 
Fair enough Menwritingwomen style is so mechanical, that it makes Max look like he washes cars sometimes.

hmm, that thread about posting a random sentence from your story made me realize that i’m not a very profound, prose centered writer. my focus is 100% about entertaining someone so i try to make it as easy as possible to follow the plot. grammarly says my writing would be able to be understood by tweens and i’m okay with that lol
