Book Club on Sidechat | I don’t get how so many people aggressively hate the “if only they’d talked to each other trope”. Like have you never been nervous to talk to someone you like or avoidant of a difficult conversation? It’s incredibly relatable!

Yeah that’s why I don’t want to read about it 😅 i read to escape my life not relive it

It really doesn’t bug me at all bc like you said, it can be realistic, as long as it only happens once. If characters repeat their mistakes and it’s constant miscommunications, then that’s where a book loses me. But characters are in theory complex with human emotions, so human mistakes are okay.

Now let’s see if 3 can respond. Hiding behind petty reports works both ways. Especially when you are being legitimately ableist and cruel. 🥰

“I’m not dumb” is out of pocket when talking about anxiety. We get it. You’re better than everyone else 🙄

Oh I can reply. You have to hide being called ableist behind reports. How embarrassing for you. I know what kind of person you are.
