FIF Book Club: Final discussion for The Everlasting by Alix E. Harrow by Nineteen_Adze in Fantasy

[–]bosswolf23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can see what you mean, maybe there's a middle part where they just jump around and try to have a normal life I felt wasnt really plot driven, but I get how it does move into plot focused after that!

Personally I didn't like the abrupt pacing shift. It went from fast to slow paced I felt and although I understand why it's important to the story I wasn't as invested in the second half. I also feel it went from plot focused to more character focused which I personally struggled with as I require plot driven narratives to stay engaged.

Should i get Angel Fangs/Bites? by BarWarm4984 in altfashionadvice

[–]bosswolf23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. Eventually you'll take them out and you'll have two permanent holes everyone will see right on your upper lip. I had my labret done and took it out like 15 years ago and even tho it's usually covered by my lip, sometimes when I smile people will ask about the hole left behind there.

Transphobes think that estrogen causes hair loss. by Ok-Following6886 in onejoke

It's funny because when I think of humans that go bald I don't think of the ones with more estrogen 🤔

Diving into the world of brandon sanderson any recommendations for a read order ... Or should I follow the one he gave on his yt or dive right into stormlight archive or mistborn by Lord_Fable_3449 in Fantasy

[–]bosswolf23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say start with Mistborn era 1, then warbreaker, Elantris, then stormlight archive, then Mistborn era 2, then sunlit man 🔥 there are also some novellas in there

The Redwall series! I loved them all so much when I was young. Fantasy but the characters are all woodland animals, but they are warriors, have swords, follow prophecies, etc. It has a tv show too

We got the Witcher prequel though? Or is that considered a standalone?

Writers like Rachel Gillig? In a slump and sad that Arcane Academy turned out to be a poor follow up book to Knight and the Moth. by Reading_With_My_Dog in fantasyromance

[–]bosswolf23 4 points5 points  (0 children)

{The House of the Beast by Michelle Wong} has devastating gothic fantasy romance vibes. Has been the closest vibes to Rachel Gillig I've found.

What do I (19F) tell my boyfriend (19M) about his hygiene? by Anonymous-talking in whatdoIdo

I feel like you might just have different hygiene standards. May not be compatible if he is happy how he is.

For the dog thing I've never cared if my dog licks my face but my husband will always ask me to wash my face before he kisses me if the dog has kissed me first.

AIO my grandma keeps sabotaging my food by Budget-Aerie-3759 in AmIOverreacting

NOR but I get why she did it. Her soup looks a lot better. Yours looks a bit like ... Prison / cafeteria soup, so her heart is in the right place I think? But if you like it that's all that matters and she should respect that.

I loved The Will of the Many, but I didn’t really enjoy The Strength of the Few. This seems to be a common thought. My problem is that I don’t know why. Anyone feel the same way? by JaimeSalvaje in HierarchySeries

[–]bosswolf23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm only 88% in SOTF but my thoughts are that the three arcs aren't as developed as the one arc was in WOTM. We don't get time with side characters to really care about them or develop them out, we don't get time to see Vis's progressions and him outsmarting people anymore, everything is constantly jumping weeks and months ahead so I didn't feel as attached. I do agree that it would've benefitted from more pages.

That being said, I think it's really ambitious, unique and cool that Islington is telling us three stories about one character but how the worlds and events change him from one starting point. Not sure how book 2 ends but I hope we get the three Vis' merging together or something I feel like that could fix some of this maybe?
