pointsofdata posted:I thought it was great, at it's best when it was focusing on stuff other than the gender themes, where it could get a bit fourth wall breaking (not that they were bad, just that it was most eye-opening when it wasn't in your face). I loved all the stuff about the main characters identity. this is pretty much how I feel about the series. I liked the sequels but felt like they should have been condensed into one book instead. I feel like raven tower is just as good as the first book

this there is no author that is capable of writing a non-cringe sex scene and they all should just fade to black

I can’t re-watch Jurassic bark and I usually skip the movies, but the only one that’s actually bad is beast with a billion backs most of the post-cancelation episode are ok, but there are far fewer good ones the actual-final-final episode is good and can be watched independently of anything else in the post-cancellation era
