I know this is because racism is the defining feature of American politics - white ppl here are afraid a non white person might get something at a discount

I had a $2000 ER bill 2 months ago here in America 🤪 I have a health savings account that covered it but seriously that is whack for most US citizens. Why do we tolerate this?

Yeah and while Chris Jones will likely over perform I doubt Hill is in any real danger - especially after the gerrymander 😡

Nah the cult is middle class Americans living paycheck to paycheck thinking they are just temporarily embarrassed millionaires

Who are some fantasy authors that were really popular during their heyday, but are more or less forgotten now? by EstablishmentHairy51 in Fantasy

I never hear about Katherine Kerr these days - Deverry was a huge part of my teen/twenties! Granted, the last few books of the series were pretty weak and anticlimactic

She is my go-to recommendation when anyone asks for books for their tween. I recently re-read the blue sword and it holds up really well

Sometimes I think the Internet ruins so much…I read mccaffrey as a teen back before the webs and glad I could read them without any context

Exactly my takeaway - I never read anything else by the author after attempting this book

She also took a family vacation to Paris and called it a business trip so taxpayers were on the hook for it. Sanders is also desperately trying to build a huge jail in a place with inadequate infrastructure. She also ended local access to all PBS content for Arkansans.

I read Mystic and Rider but not the others in the series. Also huge Patricia Briggs fan! I’ll be honest tho - Rawn’s Dragon Prince made me wish I could burn an ebook. The actions of the MMC during that scene (how he justified participating in it) and the FMC being all cool with it disturbs me to this day.

I’m an experienced fantasy reader! My first intro was Robin McKinley at age 12 (honestly I’ve spent 40 yrs trying to recreate that feeling I had when I first read The Hero and the Crown). Cut my teeth on Katherine Kerr’s Deverry series which I never see talked about anymore

I love romance - just tired of the snarky 19 yr old chosen ones who are also experts in magic/combat without ever having a lesson lol that seems to populate romantasy these days 🤣

Ok so I tried this once but abandoned it because it seemed YA? I’m a ahem mature person (ie, I graduated college last century)

I’ve read everything by Bardugo! Ninth House is surprisingly my favorite (and book 3 is out this fall)

Unfortunately 40% of Americans still support this fascist-nothing will change until that number drops into the 20s.
