This is a story where our MC and a disembodied spirit cook magical roofies for a date the MC is going on.

This was so well said. And even if it WAS too complex for someone… so what? Even if someone doesn’t understand, their dislike of it is still valid.

Lampshading sexism? Absolutely not. That's just adding sexism and saying it's okay bc you know it's there 💀 it's not lampshading it's being fine w it

I read book one after a first date recommended it. Truly took it as a red flag and backed out of a second date.

really learning a lot from you, from world building to different genres and their audiences... and being okay to say, "I didn't enjoy it" tysm

I have a review on empire of the vampire hugely focused on how sexist the book is and SO MANY MEN argue that I just don’t get it 😑

I don’t understand why people think it’s acceptable to be condescending. If you don’t like book reviews- don’t watch them.

“He did it on purpose!” Cool, that’s worse than doing it by accident in my opinion.

Have you read The girl with a dragon tattoo? I’m interested in your opinion based on your previous video

I absolutely love listening to your analysis videos. They are an education in reading critically and reflecting on genre fiction. Thanks for sharing!

I hate when people say a book is “too complex or too big for you” when you don’t like it. It’s so condescending

I marathoned the Dresden files & made it to 15% into book 7 before I quit. There’s no redemption for Harry; if anything, he gets worse.

Why would I want to read a genre where sexism is a common trope/flaw? I read for escapism

Also… lampshading can be harmful and can allow authors to be problematic w/o consequences bc they “know” as if that excuses it

I appreciate the explanation of "lampshading". Another reason why I follow you, Marinés.

I've continued reading the series because there are aspects I enjoy, but if Butcher is attempting to subvert the trope he's doing a horrible job...

If you're looking for Harry Dresden vibes but want a far more likeable male main character, I recommend the Nightside series by Simon R. Green. His
