#often even

Also my sincerest apologies to everyone who’s sent me asks over these months (and especially to you, beloved anon and no morals just memes anon, you two are the best) that went unanswered. I have read them all and loved them, but to start myself off right here and not doom myself to getting overwhelmed again instantly, I’m only going to answer the most recent asks and the ones I actually have interesting answers for. Feel free to resend anything you might remember that I don’t

Also, as an addition, even with these efforts to manage this blog better, do know that I am more regularly active on twitter these days because it is a stupidly low effort platform lmao

That doesn’t surprise me at all considering like 99% of network cop shows are like that too. There’s a lot of reasons Elementary is the only one I like and that’s on there.

I don’t know, I’ve basically found I frequently just have to skip the sex/highly implied sex scenes, even in genre fiction. One of the reasons I still read YA stuff is because YA writers can’t put sex in their books and so are forced to actually write character interaction. Even if that does frequently lead to crappy love triangles that sort of shit is telegraphed and you can just put the book back down and get something else. 

It really doesn’t seem like people can make any kind of media without romance, doesn’t it? Even every action movie needs a romance plot shoved in there, often crappily. 

Took a glance at my bookshelves to see if I could spy anything there. The only series I came up with were Lord of the Rings, Bruno and Boots (Canadian YA books), and A Wrinkle in Time. I think you can toss Narnia in there from what I remember though I’ve misplaced my own like three moves ago. Of those, LotR is the only one involving adults.
