Is this a Dolly Parton thread?

Good morning I hate women

>albanian that reads
now I've seen everything

>>25060225
I expected it to be just women but she has a lot of male authors, she had George Saunders on for instance.

why are so many famous female singers albanian

>>25060293
If only you knew how bad things really are.

>>25060293
Maybe most of them just go by italian bc that's easier?

>>25060402
what does this sentence even mean

>>25060225
Big fan. All she needs to do is look pretty and sell books as a status symbol to zoomettes. As rotten as the industry is, booktok celeb culture and blandcovered hardback smut are keeping brick and mortar, physical paper book stores around. Great /hr/ goon bait too. Didn't know she was a musician as well, I'll have to check her stuff out.

>>25060432
I misunderstood the anon I was replying to.

>>25060445
For anyone who knows, this whole booktok phenomenon, assuming it’s just a reading list, is there anything even good, even a single book? Or is it all just YAslop or genreslop?

>>25060573
Calling someone's reading preferences, which are subjective, "slop", is really pretentious. YA and Genre, both legitimate forms of fiction, are not lesser than whatever it is you think is the ideal (which I assume is literary fiction).

And yes, there are plenty of good booktok books if you get off your high horse and find them. "The first time I saw him" by Laura Dave was published on 6 January, and is a sequel to a number 1 New York Times Bestseller.

But alas, you wouldn't know, because you are in your pretentious little bubble.

>>25060573
I liked The Secret History and Piranesi. Most of it is just lady porn though.

>>25060591
Calling someone pretentious is really ignorant.

>>25060281
I'm pretty sure that's a man

>>25060591
Post tits.

>>25060293
because they learn to suck d*ck very well and this is a beneficial skill to make it in the music industry. the story in the london music industry is that dua lipa got her first break singing on a X Factor advert after servicing simon cowell. she a speed dial girl, so they say. music industry is very catty so believe what you will.

Flat as a pancake

Would.

>>25060591
They don't move me, sorry. If you think it's based on some lie I'm telling that I don't find Percy Jackson as engaging as Absalom Absalom then I don't know what to tell you. YA and genre fiction are boring and only ever touch on the surface of human emotion.

>>25060591
Things are subjective up to a point. the inconvenience of stepping on mud is subjective depending on what shoes you're wearing. Stepping in dog shit will objectively be disgusting no matter what you're wearing

>>25060591
You call me pretentious and maybe I am, as if that means anything other than you getting upset that I called something you like slop, don’t kid yourself, I read a lot of stuff as a kid that would be classified as such, if you’re just reading for a plot sure whatever. I still adore Wells and I like Christie to an extent, but I remember an ex of mine buying me some piece of shit called all the bright places, which apparently is a bestseller or something, and I didn’t get very far because the writing was juvenile. To say that some Madeline Miller book has the same literary value as Ulysses or The Man Without Qualities is just asinine and you know it.

I would have sex with Dua Lipa.

I WILL have sex with Dua Lipa.

>>25060591
This is like saying it's pretentious to call junk food, junk food, because taste is subjective

I did have sex with Dua Lipa.

Got any real arguments except calling people fat?

>>25060591
>reading preferences are subjective
>these slop books are actually good
>something something new york times bestseller
>t. least retarded bugwoman

>>25063346
nta, but calling people fat is an excellent argument
