people really just read books like “no thoughts head empty 🤪”
between white women on tiktok saying they only read books for the romance and people on tumblr forcibly applying ao3 tropes to narratives i’m beginning to think maybe you all should’ve paid more attention in 10th grade english class
I was talking to this girl on hinge and we got onto the topic of books (i work in a bookshop), and she asked me if i had any favourite tropes to read? And for the life of me i couldn’t figure out how to respond? Like Ms, i dont read fanfic, i dont understand what youre asking. I dont think ‘tropes’ can be used interchangeably with 'genre’. We dont have a section at work for shit like 'enemies to lovers’ im sorry thats not how real literature works
Are y'all trying to say that books don’t have tropes, though? Cuz they do. Are you trying to sit there and say pride and prejudice isn’t enemies to lovers? You may not have a section for it, but don’t be pissy cuz people don’t read the same as you.
We’re still trying to fight kids to read, be happy adults are.
i dont think u can read at all actually so dont even worry about it
if i had to choose a favourite trope to see in a book its where the book ends in the same place it began but theres a clear change in the character due to the journey
Remember when that super horny poster came out that looked like a woman topping some dude in a period drama and then it turned out that was just some boring contemporary horror movie where the woman was a crazy villain or smth??? That was wild
Im trying to find it but i literally dont remember the movie name sksbdjdj
out of interest I just looked up transit directions in Google maps from my parents house to my house and it told me to drive 20 minutes to a park to ride bus station, wait 6 hours, get on several different busses, then get off and order a Lyft
This isn’t a joke it literally told me to do that
i learned that there is a group of wolves in British Columbia known as “sea wolves” and 90% of their food comes from the sea. They have distinct DNA that sets them apart from interior wolves and they’re entirely dedicated to the sea swimming several miles everyday in search of food (x)
