Books and Reviews

The blood and tears poured into fanfiction is the same as those written officially.
Anything. I can read anything. I can read horror books without flinching. I can read romance books with nothing on my mind about romance. I can read crack fanfiction with no expectations.



I can read crack!
Hey, I read Twilight without losing brain cells (this is a joke in Frozen Apples wikia). I can read long-running manga if I was bored.

...Maybe that's why I can stand Mary Sues and Gary Stus. I love bashing Mary Russell for all the books' worth. I still have my own opinions about Mary Sues even though its vary from character. Remember, ymmv..

I'm an incredibly nice reviewer. I sometimes go into caustic when something doesn't live up to its potential or not doing something that could have been better. I'm not like Confused Matthew or even 70% of TGWTG. I'm like Paw Dugan, JesuOtaku, or even JewWario for that matter. Yeah, I'm subscribed to TGWTG.

I often thoughtfully put together my reviews (which are often long. If short, it's not me. I can't bring myself to write something without constructive criticism) rather than just say "Yay! Good! Update!" or simply "AUGH!!!". I rather give information that would help the author, constructive criticism that would help in later projects. If something that had not been updated in a long time, expect me to put up a review on my thoughts so far... Not to sound arrogant, but I'm sincerely shocked that the stories I actually reviewed inspired the author and later made the story better than expected. Then again, most of the reviews they got were praises or just outright flames.
