GingerAntics @5feet.of.fury I can‘t believe they have this stuff that keeps you high for TWO days!! That is so insane… and hilarious!!! 1h

I close my eyes as Kola‘s fingers graze the small of my back, and then I let myself tip forward into a dive. As I soar through the salt-filled air, I let the rest of my tears fall, and when I opened my eyes, it is to a cold sea, washing them away.

This is a far too long, angry diatribe that is very disjoined and poorly organised. Some chapters are all over the place while others have a followable organisation. It is unclear what this author actually believes or is even raging against. It is frustrating to read. I wanted to take her seriously, but after the first few chapters, that was rendered impossible by the book itself, by her own words.
👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

GingerAntics Apparently even reading her book is a white supremacist act (words that appear in the book, supposedly said by someone else, but she never refutes them). From her own words, she was fired from the New York Times for speaking out publicly within the company about her bosses, and she‘s claiming this was political... maybe. Or she quit because she saw the writing on the wall about her firing? 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 1d
GingerAntics Again, it‘s unclear. It is all so very unclear. If this is her standard writing style, I have a hunch about a contributing factor in her dismissal from the NYT. @TheBookHippie is 100% accurate in saying this book is unproductive. #NellieBowles #MorningAfterTheRevolution #WhatRevolution #WhatDidIJustRead #JustDont #audiobook #readbytheauthor #unproductive #exhausting (edited) 1d
kspenmoll This book sounds totally weird. Mixed up thinking?! Cloudy brain?! 1d
GingerAntics @kspenmoll honestly, she‘s angry. I‘m not sure there is much else to it. She lost or gave up her dream job, and she‘s pissed. 1d

I have a sneaking suspicion that I‘m going to be regretting this one fairly quickly, but for some reason, I‘m charging ahead. Here. Goes. Nothing.

TheBookHippie Bailed … it‘s not productive .. IMO 2d
GingerAntics @TheBookHippie oooooooh, I am feeling that. Is this just “I got fired from NYT because I conflated BLM and antifa like conservatives and refused to let that go, so here are all these other way more extreme white people to attack instead?” I need some clarity. Being a reader and an intellectual is racist, but only reading one book about antiracism doesn‘t make you a real antiracist, you need to spend YEARS studying this. 🤨🤨🤨 2d
kspenmoll Is she nuts?! 1d
GingerAntics @kspenmoll 🤷🏼‍♀️ 1d

This was a great read. It definitely got my heart racing throughout. It definitely had an Orwell feel to it. It was truly worth the read. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I‘m a bit late starting, but I got caught up listening to the first few chapters of The Mill on the Floss while taking a walk with Luthien today. I‘m not sure what I think of these two siblings yet, but I‘m looking forward to seeing where this goes.

Parts of this book were bleak and I was almost constantly listening with a slight feeling of dread about what might be about to happen, but I also enjoyed it. It actually ended on a more hopeful note than I expected through most of the story. I felt it described the setting of 1860s New Zealand and the gold rush very well.

As a general fan of the semicolon (I did not know this was a contentious topic), I‘m excited for this one.
#CeceliaWatson #Semicolon #audiobook

Lcsmcat I love the semicolon; people just need to learn to use them. 5d
GingerAntics @Lcsmcat see, that‘s where I start getting my ruffles up. We used to have a professor at the college where I worked in the writing centre who erroneously told her students they were not allowed to use semicolons because there was only one way to use them correctly and she hadn‘t told them that one way yet. 🙄 Categorically wrong… and then to find out it‘s all wrong anyway!!! This book is blowing my mind! 4d
Lcsmcat As you can see by my rating, I‘ve read the book. And while I do love semicolons, the remark, with the semicolon dividing the two sentences, was meant to be tongue-in-cheek. 4d

GingerAntics @Lcsmcat 🤦🏼‍♀️🤣😂🤣 oh my god, I totally missed that. 🧡🧡🧡 That was utter perfection. Seeing that, when done properly, perhaps it‘s better your punctuation should become seamless and nearly invisible so as to not detract from your point… I think you nailed it!!! 🤣😂🤣 4d
GingerAntics @Lcsmcat also, potentially figured out where the aforementioned professor got the insane notion that there was only one correct way to use a semicolon; apparently, the California state legislature at one time passed an edict to this effect. 🤦🏼‍♀️ 4d
Lcsmcat @GingerAntics Wow. When given free rein, is there nothing state legislatures won‘t try to control? 4d
GingerAntics @Lcsmcat apparently not… it also goes further in that multiple people have been executed AGAINST THE RULING OF THE JURY due to punctuation by someone transcribing. So, yeah. We talk about commas saving lives, but sometimes they kill too. 4d
