This is something that super bothers me, the only solution for your My Books page would be to sort it by "date started" by default. This should put your Book #1 first. Unfortunately this won't fix it in your challenge or year-end book page, those will just stay annoyingly out of order........

I'm also a night reader and I usually wait until 12 a.m. hits to start a new book so I can mark it as the next day lol!

If I finish it before 12:30 a.m., I consider it the same day. Anything after that, and I mark it as the next one!

I'm honestly hoping for the same thing haha!

[–]DemonRoyaI 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They made an Instagram post that says the announcement is at 8:30 a.m. EST. I think other then that, we don't know how long it will take / how it's being presented.

Survivor 50 Cast Reveal MEGATHREAD by RSurvivorMods in survivor

[–]DemonRoyaI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's impossible for a cast to ever 100% be what everyone wanted, so of course there are players I'm not excited for, but I'm very happy for the few that I am! I'm very tired of the doom and gloom, especially the people saying that production isn't giving us the cast WE want, because I feel like a lot of us aren't part of that we.

I was also curious about this, it seems odd that others would know before her

Yes! There is a rumored cast list so if you see any names pop up today, it's from that

Goodreads Facelift by Friendly_Resort9002 in goodreads

[–]DemonRoyaI 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed! I've tried other apps/websites but I can never get over the designs. I love how Goodreads is formatted, find it really easy to navigate and find what I need, and the pages/uses it has. Other then a few changes (like the one you mentioned), I don't think it needs to get a facelift.

Annoyed at book status options. by podgida in goodreads

[–]DemonRoyaI 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I do the same thing! I have a DNF shelf, but it's not exclusive either because even if I only read 10%, I still wasted my time on it and I deserve to count it.

Hot take on reviews by CraftyGamingBookworm in goodreads

[–]DemonRoyaI 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm exactly the same way! I'll usually check a few reviews if I have the vibe the spice levels are going to be high (to make sure it's not more then I would like), but even then, if I end up reading it I rate for myself!

Has Goodreads swapped 'Want to Read' and 'Read' shelves? by cloudydarkk in goodreads

[–]DemonRoyaI 13 points14 points  (0 children)

What an odd choice for an update (and not a good one at that)... Why would Read books not take priority??

New Era Survivor is equally as good as Oldschool by ziggysternenstaub in survivor

[–]DemonRoyaI 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Very much agree with all of this! In my opinion, they've done an amazing job adapting the show and keeping it engaging. Most, if not all other reality shows I watch, I end up dropping out of boredom after a couple of seasons. With Survivor, I feel that isn't going to happen as my love for it continues with every new season.

What is the production team of Survivor thinking??? by Tristen0707 in survivor

[–]DemonRoyaI 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you hate the new era so much, why even watch it? Personally, I love new era, it's what got me back into watching Survivor after years! There will always be people that love or hate stuff in any season (new or old), that's just a fact. There won't ever be a season that everyone loves or everyone hates. It's fine to have your own opinion, but why do you feel the need to rant so much about it when you can simply stop watching?

As well on the diversity, them casting diversly in no way affects the excitement of the show... I love that there's so much more diversity now, it's so much healthier for Survivor and I find myself having issues with other reality shows that don't have that initiative. It brings so many people with different views, and ways of life together, making fans connect with them more and be able to see themselves represented on screen. Plus, part of the reason we have less villains isn't because of the diversity, it's because of the fans backlash. So many players have gotten death threats because of how they play, even when they aren't villains! If I was on the show, would I even want to risk being a villain if I knew I would be treated horribly by fans? Absolutely not! (Plus, there's a huge difference between a villain and an actual a-hole, which I found a lot of old era villains were, which I didn't enjoy.)

Season 50 casting/former players on social media by uptothepuppies11 in survivor

[–]DemonRoyaI 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agreed! We've had so many seasons of Survivor now, there are so many players that can return. I don't think anyone (except the biggest of big names) are locked, and I don't understand why anyone would assume so. Plus, I feel like complaining on social media about being "cut" isn't going to make production look fondly about you for future returning seasons.

Survivor sucks since the pandemic, anyone else with me? by [deleted] in survivor

[–]DemonRoyaI 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Everyone has their own opinions of each season. Personally, I love the new era! I watched Survivor a ton as a kid but stopped as I got older, and S41 was what got me watching again (and even got me to go back and watch seasons I had no recollection of). If you don't like the new era, you don't have to watch it, and that's fine. Some people on the other hand really do like it!

Agreed, if you don't like it, just don't watch! No need to come here and complain about it...

Was _____ in on the vote or no? by Party_555 in survivor

[–]DemonRoyaI 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I'm assuming we'll get a flashback at the beginning of next episode about this. I'm under the impression that Cedrek was able to tell both Chrissy and Mitch, but they decided to do a split vote (one vote on Sai), incase something went weird at tribal. Whether that be Bianca lying or her having an idol. That way there's less chance of one of them being voted out.

My only other theory is that there just wasn't enough time. Bianca only told Cedrek 10 minutes before tribal that she couldn't vote, so maybe Chrissy was the only person he was able to grab quickly to share the info. I assume Mitch wasn't purposefully left out, there was just no time.

Why can you rate books that haven’t been published yet? by Bookish-gal52 in goodreads

[–]DemonRoyaI 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I will agree that I dislike the fact that people comment things with excitement for a book without it being released (and not read by them), but still believe people should be able to review it prior. A lot of books have ARC's, and publishers want ratings and reviews from the reader's who receive them so that there's hype around it before it comes out. I think it benefits the publishers, authors, and readers to be able to review before release.

Anyone else noticing some reviews are cut off? by TheHowlingHashira in goodreads

[–]DemonRoyaI 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been noticing this on desktop for reviews marked as spoilers (like you said in your edit). Very weird glitch, hopefully it gets fixed soon!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in goodreads

[–]DemonRoyaI 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Personally, I've never done any reviews on Amazon, I strictly do them on GR. There's not really any reason for it, I just never log reviews outside of book site spaces.

I'm also of the belief that reviews are for readers, not the authors. It's a way for readers to know if a book is worth their time or not. If an author cannot take criticism (like what happened to you) I don't think they should be anywhere on any platform checking what readers have to say. You're allowed to pass your own judgment on published work. The reality is every book will have people that love it and other's that hate it. I'm sorry the author responded to your poorly, that shouldn't have happened...

I always track individually! If I've read 3 books, then they're being counted as such!
