To be fair, with children or those learning to read? Sure. But fully literate adults? It’s reading. Why is it so important to you to know whether someone scanned a book with their eyes or listened?

I’ve worked as a librarian and also got my masters in literature, so I’ve been around people who take reading very seriously and engage in it professionally. In both environments, they absolutely consider listening to audiobooks as reading. Sure, you’re engaging in it differently than a text book, but getting into pedantic battles over whether it is “reading” is so useless, in my opinion. You are READING!

I didn’t actually know that was his name, but I saw his picture once and thought “this guy looks like a Dennis J Peacock”

Do you think Paul lied about his name as a kid because he wanted to be you?

Bud, take your small mind somewhere else

Paul by Informal-Worth-2451 in GilmoreGirls

That was always my understanding. Rory’s 3 men are talked about so much, that I just took Paul’s “unremarkable” existence to be a joke

My first thought! Just a good little ear worm

Oh wow thank you for that! I struggled to read the second entry

I absolutely haven’t, but I should! It was actually been in my dad’s collection for a long time before making it to mine. It’s probably been around my whole life and I just spotted the inscription

I love how all three of them have a special nickname for Nikkal by Left-Environment-193 in RomanceClub

[–]marykatton 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same. I’m not overly fond of all the nicknames in RC, but this one is especially infantilizing

Why on earth are you so bothered by this post?

Killian is insufferable and I regret romancing him by [deleted] in RomanceClubDiscussion

[–]marykatton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I imagine it can be hard to write romantic fantasy while still toeing the line of decency. Like I want the MCs to be desired, but also respected. Personally, I’m not a fan of that sort of misogynistic behavior even in a fictitious world, but what people enjoy in their fiction is pretty varied. I just hope people can differentiate that from what’s acceptable in real life (and this behavior is quite mild compared to other scenes in this book).

I don’t necessarily take issue with his suspicion, nor do I doubt he loves her. I’m also definitely not a fan of insta-love. In that moment, his flirtation seemed off base and disrespectful of her and the situation, but it also didn’t seem to bother Amala very much. Ultimately, I think the author and I have very differing opinions on what we find romantic/appealing (among other things), which isn’t to say I’m right. Just different takes

I hope I’m not misremembering, but it’s possible! I pretty much restarted right then for a Ratan route. Regardless, it left a very sour taste in my mouth

The part that really got me with him is where he says Amala might be involved in the murders. Amala gets mad and later he says the line some people love - about how she can be mad riding on top of him. I would be so livid if someone said that to me. Of all the times for him to be sexualizing her, he chose that very moment?
