everything ive been recommended by book lover r-slurs is YA fanfiction prose and flat characters and dumb predictable plot lines. stephen king is a great american novelist compared to the shlock that people read these days. i dont care if its normie tier dark trashy fun i just want it to be well written and to be able to discuss it with my grandma.

I like fantasy fiction.

Have I *ever* read a fantasy book that I thought was a miss? Just Tolkien.

I mean he has some great moments but the moments where he immerses you in the badlands areas of the world are not friendly to my attention span. Fiction writers are taught to be descriptive, descriptive, descriptive. I don't really like that.

Mercedes Lackley is good because her books are about discussion, discussion, discussion.
Margaret Weis is good because her books are about experience, experience, experience (and emotion).
