[Surprisingly quickly after the arrival of the recommended reading, a typed rant appears on the bulletin board. It is not signed.]
This Twilight book is fucking terrible and here is why:
In conclusion: it sucks.
This Twilight book is fucking terrible and here is why:
- It's boring
- It's a stupid romance
- Uses way to much of that thing where like, things are emphasised a lot. Hyperbolic, or whatever
- Story structure is shit, most of it is about the stupid boring romance with the stupid boring characters, and then hostiles appear out of nowhere without even one scene ominously hinting about their existence
- Planetary Security in this place sucks
- The stupid fucking love interest Edward also sucks and is clearly hostile
- If Bella has to have a stupid love interested she should pick someone less likely to murder her
- He admits to wanting to eat her
- He breaks and enters into her sleeping quarters, as well as other clear stalking behaviours
- Seriously he keeps going on about how much he wants to eat Bella, what the fuck
- Why is she not concerned about this, does she want to fucking die
- Bella is also terrible. And boring.
- (Also Edward liking her smell is disgusting, that's just gross)
- The hostiles that arrived at the end distracted from the stupid romance plot, so I guess that sucked slightly less than the rest of the book, but it was still badly written and fucking stupid
In conclusion: it sucks.

[In unnecessarily "elegant" hand-written script as if by an archaic quill:]
Thank you, this has been most enlightening. Please consider releasing it as an ongoing series of dating 101 tips, I'm sure it'll be wildly popular.
Was there anything you found remotely salvageable?
no subject
[Translation: No, it was not going to release a series of dating 101 tips, what the fuck. And no, there is nothing remotely salvageable in the book.]
no subject
I wonder why it even got published. Are humans just that unable to decipher quality? Too much mimesis?
[That is the NICEST thing he can ask... sadly. His other criticisms, are so much worse.]
no subject
[There's a pause, before the next part comes]
What the fuck is mimesis.
no subject
People who only like something, because others do. They do it to be tribalistic in a society divorced from true values.
Like those annoying team T-shirts. Team Edward, Team Jacob.
"Oh, look those people like it, and I want to be popular, so I'll join in."
No sense of individual sense and taste, much less true needs and wants.

[Why were humans like this?]

[He hates it. With a burning fiery passion.]
It's even worse, because then they think as long as there are only two options presented, they forget there could be more, and think they are actually free to make a choice, so it allows the absolute worst to prey upon this weakness, kept in the dark like sheep never daring to reach outside the lines that might as well not even exist.
[.... He has intense feelings about it, can you tell?]
The illusion of choice is never freedom.
no subject
It wasn't expecting this person to suddenly start talking about choices. About not having choices. Except in this case they kind of both did and didn't have choices, which it didn't really understand and was honestly kind of terrified to think about.
What about its choices? It had had to make so many, since being freed.
How many of those weren't real?]
I don't want to talk about this.
no subject
[That's it. He gets it. Most people aren't a fan of huge existential crises when listing annoyances with a poorly written book. Who knew. Also why he never has lengthy discussions with Leviathan. Completely different wavelengths.]
no subject
Best to leave things thing, lest things somehow get back to talking about...choices.]
