I want hot takes. Or lukewarm takes, sometimes you leave hot takes steeping too long and they’re over-done and cold, but still drinkable if you have low standards, which is also acceptable.
2. Are you an Austen person or a Bronte person?
bronte, in junior high my literature teacher asked us something similar and I remember arguing with my classmate about it, he told me that I confuse good literature with morbid literature and that surely I will outgrow it soon. well filip, maybe you were right, except I'm pretty sure I will take that vice to the grave.
7. Have you ever despised something you have read?
pride and prejudi- I'm joking, I'm joking. The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho, it wasn't even the fact that it's bad, because, I don't know, it's not offensive, it's not even boring it's just an incredibly silly story pretending to be so much more than it is. What made 15yo me despise it though was my classmates reaction to it. mooning over Coelho's remember that wherever your heart is, there you will find your treasure while they couldn't see anything special in Dostoyevsky, I was so self righteously angry about it, it was ridiculous. and to bring this post full circle, filip agreed with me on this.
as you can see junior high was a very turbulent time in my life
