The second girl at least read the book to confirm that it was shit, she even had Capote on deck as backup. Chick 1 is just lazy
Nope. Girl 2 saw that Girl 1′s absolutely accurate analysis was being shut down just because it wasn’t stated in an intellectual way (in spite of its validity). So Girl 2 reinforced Girl 1′s opinions in solidarity and made sure that it was absolutely clear that Girl 1 was factually correct. WITHOUT taking credit for her observations (”kim is right” instead of “Actually, kim”)
Girls supporting Girls.
Girls not letting other girls be treated poorly.
Girls not letting dudes who think that everything written by drug addled cishet white dudes is somehow Edgy and Important shit all over the opinions of girls who are like “No actually this is incoherent crap written by a manchild”
I’ve repeatedly stopped reading books because they were shit.
Hey by the way, 30 pages isn’t lazy. That was a real effort. But she couldn’t make it further because the whole story was crap.
2 pages might be lazy. 30 is an assessment of how well a writer is– or isn’t– able to achieve their goal.
that girl probably spent more time really ready and taking in what this dude had to say than he actually took to write it
