#anti sotr#I didn't entirely hate the book at first but I'm starting to#because why is there like. 5 people willing to bother actually reading it and giving it the courtesy of actually critiquing it#instead of blindly pretending it's a masterpiece just because SC wrote it#it's badly written#it fails to deliver on its themes#its hard to care about a lot of characters#it renders aspects of the original series implausible at BEST#and it fails to show nuance in like. anything#ffs I'm begging y'all#I saw someone say there are no valid critiques of sotr that they've seen#and I'm sorry but I don't think they looked at all#there's only about a dozen critiques I've seen#but they all had a lot more merit than the million fucking conspiracy theories about it I've seen floating aroud#fym Annie Cresta is a body double#fym Lou Lou is Seeder's secret kid#fym Katniss was like Haymitch's niece since birth#I'm crashing out#I'll probably delete this tomorrow#but omfg#I'm losing my goddamn mind#IT WASNT AMAZING#IT WASN'T WELL WRITTEN#it read like a fanfiction and it was FUN but it wasn't GOOD#come ON people
