Just started watching Loki and I already kind of hate the entire premise of it.
Anything that suggests the idea of a deterministic universe already annoys the crap out of me. And that fucking awful line about how Loki just exists to bring suffering and death to people just so that the Avengers can be good guys made me want to punch my screen.
I am once again calling for book rants. It was so much fun the last time, and I crave more.
Do you have a long standing grudge against a book you read in middle school? Have you gotten swept up by hype only to find that everyone lied to you and the book is trash? Do you burn with rage over the way an author portrayed your favorite mythology or folklore? Is there a book or series that you once loved, but now makes you cringe every time you think about it?
Do you want to vent all of it out to someone who won't judge you, or argue with you, but will simply accept all your feelings as their own?
Hi, that person is me. Send me an ask, anonymous or not, and tell me everything you've wanted to say. Offer me your anger, your frustration, your hatred. I will hold it for you. I will take it into my heart and make it my own.
It can be any genre you want, any demographic. I will accept it all. Even if James Patterson gets involved again. (I'm not scared of you, James!!)

Few things in life are more irritating to me than someone recommending something to me and then constantly bugging me until I check it out.
Them: "Hey, I heard this song I think you'd like, here's the link for it." Me: "Okay, I'll listen to it later." The rest of the damn day Them: "Have you listened to it yet? Have you listened to it yet? Hey, I sent you that song, you should totally listen to it. Listen to the song! Why haven't you listened to it yet? I just sent the link again, you should totally listen to it."
Why am I laughing so much at this
The second I saw your post requesting people to rant about shitty books one came to my mind first. The last dragon slayer. Now, when I had to read this in high school I was actually excited because for once I got to read a book with an interesting premise. Oh how wrong I was. The pacing in this book was so god awful that it was genuinely hard to keep track of what was going on. As cool was the world was, any information about it or magic was delivered in a way that’s reminiscent of dry textbooks. Never has a book disappointed me quite like that one did (and there’s even 3 more after it). Thank you for allowing me to rant about that hot garbage, I hope you have a great day :)
Your description of this book is similar to how I'm currently feeling as I slog my way through Fourth Wing. Especially with how the worldbuilding is delivered. Just dumps it onto you with large blocks of text unrelated to the current scene.
Dragons are too cool to have such bad books written about them.
