Did this book deserve the one star I gave it before my conversation with the author? This is not an opinion against Sarah kendzior as a person, just a neutral review of the book. Please excuse all the fidgeting #booktube

Hellooooo readers - here is a not so quick breakdown of all the books I've read in March with some synopses and reviews and thoughts.

I read a thriller set in Lake Tahoe and...it wasn't good I Pretty Things by Janelle Brown deep dive
Просмотров 1510 месяцев назад
This is a rambling discussion about the book Pretty Things by Janelle Brown, why I personally didn't like it, and what I think she could have changed to make it better (for me) TW: there are mentions of mental illness, suicide, and violence so be warned
I haven't read the book but I think you should look a little deeper into Kendzior's work. Your review sounds very superficial. Listening to this online interview gives me the impression that Kendzior has a consistent, dark message, that you just don't like, perhaps for aesthetic reasons. Her dark vision is unfortunately coming closer to reality. ruclips.net/video/2R1jcortHDA/видео.html
Thank you for this video; it was fascinating.
Don't worry, I don't think Sarah cares what the likes of _you_ think of that book
The finitely.
Hi. This was well done in its respectful corresponding subject. Trust me when I say this I too know the uncomfortabability of this matter, won’t go into details. Wishing you peace and happiness. 🙂👍
I think books written by women that vary in culture would be an incredible opportunity for everyone and a good idea perhaps literary fiction and translated to English.
Herman hesse, seems like a good writer based off previous books. Will read more by him, ty for recommending!
I’m glad, let me know what you think of any future books by him!
I see you have 30 books or less! Trying to follow that rule. I want to appear as though I finish my books 😅 I’ve been rejected friendship by a neighbour for not finishing my books after she lent me a book and I did not read the said book.
This!!! Yes, I am a huge library proponent!
Welcome to Booktube. Looking forward to seeing your book selections
Thank you! Excited to be here :)
