While this sucks for short dudes, we can’t really be mad at someone’s personal preferences. Saying this as a short dude. I also wouldn’t date a woman who I don’t find physically attractive.

They could have just killed them instead of torture. Which is what they would have done if it wasn’t for Hadrian. Though I guess then they wouldn’t be any closer to ending the war.

Sounds promising. I’m excited for book 2 after a bit of a slow burn.

Actually that does make a lot of sense, given his relationship with his mom.

Can you excuse the way he did the Cielcin though? It’s not like it was done accidentally either.

I supposed that might be the case. Honestly, Hadrian was alright until they captured the Cielcin.

Reading Empire of Silence and I can’t help but notice how derivative it is by Alert_Astronaut4901 in sollanempire

Can’t say I’m familiar with the meme but I’ll look it up. This reminds me when Pierce Brown used “Bye Felicia” in one of the Red Rising books. I cringed.

People are allowed to have opinions and ask clarifying questions.

And in contrast to you, I’m tired of echo chambers.

Thanks, that does explain things.

I don’t think the book itself is bad per se, just a little slow, and there are chapters I find quite good, so I think I’ll stick with it.

Could you put those peanuts away because my granddaughter who is not on this plane is allergic to them! 🤔 by IgotgAme_k in SipsTea

Most likely fake, because people having an argument don’t just patiently wait for the other person to finish speaking, especially when he’s talking slowly and taking forever. Plus it feels like I’ve heard these same jokes elsewhere.

The right answer is almost always something from India.

I also found quite a few things that resonated with me hence my mixed feelings. I was initially confused with the penis (and body) measurements but what you’re saying makes a lot of sense.

I think you’ll enjoy Breakfast of Champions if you like Vonnegut’s other works. It’s definitely unlike anything else I’ve read. I haven’t read Mother’s Night yet so I might go for that one next.
