I know what's going to happen. I know what the shards do, and I know what he'll decide once he has them all.

9. By all accounts, All these 5 are doing are rearranging chairs on the deck of a sinking ship. Wade had what, at first, sounded like a decent idea, then he ruined it by saying they were going to travel to a nearby star THEN start looking for an earth like world... I... I don't even... That is the DUMBEST... Again, I could write a multi page critique on just how stupid a plan that alone is. F*** ME! -_-

5. The pop culture garbage is so stifling.

6. Oh... another easter egg hunt... way to break the creative mold Cline.

7. Do you understand the concept of linear time? A lot of these things would be more impactful if it were followed linearly and not jumping forward and back in the narrative

8. Artemis and Wade are both insufferable.

3. Stop jumping around!

4. If I understand the timeline correctly, it's been like.. 2 or 3 years, and Wade has managed to acquire the rights to multiple different movie franchises, the likenesses to the actors, setup a movie production company, wrote, directed, and released 8 block buster movies in the real world.... ok, I could write a lengthy critique on that alone but bull shit.

2. Authors going out of their way to describe how everything is completely, and staggeringly normal in VR is a trope that really needs to die, it's boring as F***. OMG This Apple feels and tastes lie and Apple!!!!!!!!! :O :O :O :O :O MIND BLOWN!!

1. The premise for the story is such a blatant, desperate attempt to be relevant It's painful. Not only has the genius inventor done all the oasis stuff, before he died he also invented full dive VR... and hid it... for the sequel. Convenient.

Holy F*** this book is awful. I'm like 1/10th the way in, the story hasn't really started yet, and I've already got so many complaints I'm going to have to keep a running list to remember them all.

Ugh. This has author self insert fantasy written all over it. I'm 90% sure I could draw an accurate picture of the author based on how he described the main character pre-change.

"Ebon Forge" Hah, I don't supposed that's a combination of "Ebon Hawk" and "Star Forge"...

Chris Evans is on page 10 of 415 of The One-Armed Warlock: Book One
Later, he casts blood leach on Dave and acts like that was the first time he'd cast on a normal human, apparently forgetting the normal human thief he'd burned and leached to death a few pages earlier.

White seems to have an issue remembering earlier parts of his own story. When he was getting kicked out of barter town, at one point he was told he was unconscious for several days, but they then proceed to talk as if the events were the night before rather than several days back.

Philip Pullman conflating the Catholic Church and Nazi Germany seems rather hyperbolic.

- Is the multiverse really saved in the Amber Spyglass by two twelve year olds having sex? O_o
- For all Philip Pullman seems to take pride in his stories having a logical and scientific core, there's an awful lot of hokey spiritual nonsense in them, like, the Knife that can cut reality not being able to "Cut Love".
- The whole angle plot in the Amber Spyglass was kind of pointless too.

- The levels of Bestiality in Lyra's world have got to be unusually high, what with people constantly being followed by a talking animal of the opposite sex.
- Are Daemon's present as fetuses inside the mother, or do they magic themselves into existence after birth?
- The Amber Spyglass as an item, and the whole plot around it was pointless and dull come to think of it...

Story is still dull. It's got my mind wandering onto other things like:
- The Parent/Child dynamic in the world should be F***ed. How do you say no, or discipline a child when a tantrum could result in them sending a Lion after you, have a rampaging bull destroy the house?

Wow, this book is really dull. I don't remember the original trilogy being like this.

She goes from being a vulnerable and an underdog to fearless and hyper-competent so quickly it knocked me right out of the story. This could have worked if Khoury didn't jam both incidents right on top of each other. If it had been the next day, or even given her an hour to decompress it could have worked. That kind of turn on a dime is whiplash inducing.

Also, this is the Aes Sedai test from Wheel of Time.

A couple of things. First, this is obviously musical Harry Potter which is fine, but it's really really for musicians.

More important, just finished the part where they test the students to finish a song while trying to distract them. What I'm guessing is going to be the 'big reveal' was given away here, and her emotional vulnerability is done really well.... then they immediately ruin it.

First Dangle - Surprisingly good, a little rough at the start but enjoyable.

Oh no, un-ironic use of "Strong independent woman" in the forward, just how obnoxious is this book going to be?

Decided to try book 2 based on the recommendation of Jack Napier. Got to say, it doesn't start out promising that it's going to be different than the first books wank fest.
