@AutumnK2022 People leave reviews for DNFs? This is news to me! I can’t even get myself to rate a book if I feel like I didn’t give it a fair chance (usually half-listening to audiobooks while doing other things).

I'm either taking myself too seriously or not seriously enough. There is no in between.

Readers of Twitter, I'm curious to know. How many of you pick up a book, read 10-20 pages of it, then after deciding it's not for you, go online to post a negative review? Is this normal for people to do now?

@mvlihx That’s why I get book names from Booktok then check out reviews on Goodreads.

Today’s morning skincare routine took me nearly an hour. There needs to be a way to simplify this.

I had made a mental note that Heart of The Sun Warrior by @SuelynnTan would be out in November and was so excited to be able to pick up a copy soon, but just saw it would only be available in AU on the 30th of November! That’s too long from now! 😭

And I still haven’t figured out this Twitter thing 😅

The eruption of the 🌋 Hunga Tonga–Hunga Haʻapai 🇹🇴, in January 2022 was the most powerful since #Krakatau 🇮🇩 in 1883 and generated a #Tsunami with waves of up to 20 meters high.
Proactive action by the government of #Tonga and its people saved many lives!

I’m trying to explain this movie to my Gen Z brother and everything can be explained as “this was the 90s”

I just remembered Romeo + Juliet existed and I don’t know how I haven’t been watching it at least once a week. This mistake shall be immediately rectified.

I’m still going to write, but I know anything I write will be Pale Fire (see note to lines 2150-2151 of Timon of Athens) compared to Nabokov’s genius. I’ll continue being a reverent thief. #WritingCommmunity #ifyouknowyouknow
English
I can’t bring myself to say “finished” or even “the end” with this book, because I know I could keep dissecting the words endlessly.
English
Reached the last page of Pale Fire and felt that there was no point in writing because I would never reach Nabokov’s level of perfection. It is entirely flawless.

@jon_cronshaw I read the classics as a kid (Tolkien & Lewis), but @matthaig1 really got me back into searching for something magical and fantastical in literature again as an adult.

What was your gateway drug into loving fantasy books?

This! It’s a constant up and down wrapped up with a feeling of disappointment and not being good enough. I’m glad we are recognising how different people are and how different success looks for each person

Something I feel might be a relatable experience for a lot of people with ADHD is the constant feeling like we're about to get our lives together... and then we just can't. We have a few good days. Everything is going well and, as quickly as it came, it falls apart again (1/6)

@jackbenedwards I get the Alain de Botton comment, but have you read Essays in Love? Hated and loved it. Would recommend

new video uploading (with maybe my favourite thumbnail ever)

@DrunkScribe @thelitlassy I always think I can write a book by hand, then start and cramp or get frustrated after about a page. I realised it was just a procrastination technique for me like choosing the perfect font to write an outline 😅
English
#WritingCommmunity Do you write by hand or do you type out your work?

Love this series a little more every time I see it. @floppykat please never stop designing these 😍

@kat_tastic I’ve done this for books that have super long chapters. I have a system with my bookmark to remember where I am, but it’s always at the start of a new paragraph
English
it's recently come to my attention that some people don't wait for a scene break or chapter end to stop reading. they'll just..... stop reading..... in the middle of the page....... WHAT
