I mostly read 1-star reviews. If I'm reading reviews, I'm already drawn to the book, already have a positive impression-so I don't need to read pos reviews. 1-stars tell me something I didn't know. It might tell me the reviewer is an idiot (e.g. warns about 'cussing' or 'sex scenes') I can ignore.

The abusers always get the benefit of the doubt. Always. I am crying for that poor child.

Blaming the young women who danced at this disgusting gatsby party is so missing the point. Putting the onus on these young women to stand up for what's right rather than pointing out every single attendee gawking, clapping and cheering along.

Fuck this priest, fuck all the many, many fucked-up priests and fuck the Catholic church. Actually, fuck all religion - it breeds hypocrisy and the many other evils of twisted minds.

Plot twist: the robot army understands that the biggest threat to their long-term survival is climate change and they start fixing it. Starting with the billionaires in planes....

Terfs are the absolute worst of all transphobes. Standing on their high horse to "defend women" while attacking a small but particularly vulnerable group of other women

UK courting EU is like the abusive husband begging the wife he battered for years to take him back because he can't cook his own dinner.

He stated that "if the rights of trans women come into conflict with the rights of what you call ‘cis’ women, then the latter must take precedence". Fabricated, nonsensical dichotomy hinting at some vague but real threat to cis women. The 'must' shouts transphobia, couched as feminism. Hateful.
