You wanted to read the book, you were excited to crack it open, you came into it with good faith and anticipation… but you ended up dnf-ing it. Which book and why?

Mine was The Maid by Nita Prose. It was for my book club and looked like a fun murder mystery. Instead I got instant manic-pixie-dream-neurodivergent-girl vibes, and I noped out before the crime scene was even found.

I would read it! Books like that are good for reasoning out sociology. You know, going in, that biblical accounts are at best allegorical. It’s not like you’re at risk of being brainwashed or something

Almost any time I start to say, “it’s interesting,” or “that’s actually interesting,” or similar in conversation it’s like my subconscious has warned people (and me now that I know I do it,) that I’m about to say something that’s interesting to almost nobody but me!
