      On God. I once had an argument with a hardcore stan about how Rhys isn't a good guy, and they were defending him like "HE GOT TRAUMA!!!" and when I went "trauma doesn't justify his terrible actions, he's a bad person", they turned it into me being disrespectful to trauma victims because some of them might see themselves in Rhysand... I had to give up at one point because the conversation was stressing me out, but it still irks me to this day.

As for romance though, I suggest Act your age, Eve Brown ! It’s the 3rd volume of the Brown series (but you don’t have to have read the other novels, it reads as a stand-alone where the other protagonists show up a bit like easter eggs) and it’s really good. The writing isn’t incredible, but it’s a fun, cheerful read, the male lead is *chef’s kiss* and Eve’s an absolute sweetheart. Plus, both the main characters are autistic and thus far it’s been really good representation. I bought it yesterday and I have to fight myself to put it down :)

    I made the mistake of reading Shatter Me based on the cover and first chapter, and boy did I regret that. *Spoilers ahead* Main character just got out of a year in solitary confinement? Wow, what a great opportunity to explore the trauma and her trying to reintegrate into society and - oh wait, her trauma has been cured by her having the hots for a boy she just met. No, make that two hot boys. And then wow she kinda has a superpower, but she hurts everyone that gets close - oh wait, she doesn't hurt the hot boys. How convenient. She spends the whole book hating herself, then finally gets some actual self-confidence - oh wait, in the preview chapters for the next book her character arc has been reset and she's back to hating herself again. What was even the point of all that if she was just gonna be back at ground zero for the next book?
    TL;DR this book taught me that 1) I do not like overly purple prose, 2) I hate love triangles, and 3) I should avoid YA books about romance. Also, I need more LGBTQ+ characters.

But from there it just spiraled downhill and my asexual self did NOT appreciate not being warned about the rampant smut throughout.
    I’m a person who always tries to finish a book, even if I don’t like it, cause there’s always _something_ to gain and I don’t like my time being wasted. Not in this case, barely got halfway thought and was like *nope*.

    *THIS IS MY OPINION,NO HATE TO ANYONE* I don't think THG series deserve jail to be honest. But it's my opinion, and Katniss is not a Mary Sue (she didn't say Katniss is Mary Sue but many people say she is when she is not ahhh, I think the term Mary Sue is overused) (she was good at archery because she practiced a lot in her hometown, but Peeta was better than her with his social skills and speaking abilities which helped them MANY times). I think there is a certain standard for female protagonist, people always question their personality and ability even more than male protagonist. There are many male protagonist who don't even have a training arc, and they are good at everything. Yet, they aren't called "Mary Sues". I just noticed female authors and female protagonists are held to another standard.
    Katniss wasn't perfect nor she was trying to be,maybe her physical skills were good but her flaws were her personality and her impulsive nature...she made many stupid decisions and in the end she was just a pawn used by a greater cause.
    I think THG is a good critique to propaganda and the issues with the Elites. And let's not forget the impact the series had on many protests around the world, even in my country people were mimicking the hand gesture from the series during massive political protests

    Any book that uses actual photos of people on the cover. Jail.
