    Phrases like "The scene with the crusty p*nis". Are why you became my favourite book tuber. And the person who's videos I look forward to most. Never change Meg 👍

    Lol the whole beginning of this video is gold. People should really not be upset about the actions of others when they are causing no harm. Stuff like these films are things that are obviously bad, but also we're naturally curious, and books are a safe way to explore that curiosity. Also, horror books and films became a way for me to cope with all of the horrible stuff that has happened last few years. Besides those points, we all enjoy weird shit, and there's nothing wrong with that

      Yessss thank you!! You have no idea someone’s intentions for reading and writing these types of books so I wish people would stop pressing that judgment but what are you going to do!

    I had similar feelings about Talia, I liked the story but the way it was written felt a bit ham-fisted, which was a bit disappointing since I read it right after 'Left to You' by Volpe which was much better. I've never been disappointed by a Matt Shaw book yet, 'P*RN' was giving me similar vibes to Talia but I think it's better written, also similar vibes from 'WH*RE'. Damn Matt Shaw has a book for everything.
    Lol at the Onlyfans bit, that would be brilliant if anyone asks about the charges on the card 'I swear it's for the book reviews!' I think the youtube/amazon approach with extreme horror authors and content creators is so strange they are some of the most wholesome and lovely people I've seen on youtube. You just have to remember the old adage "think about how dumb the average person is; half of people are dumber than that" kinda explains why we can't have nice things.

    • @ReadingWithMeg
      @ReadingWithMeg  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Matt Shaw is the best I seriously am never disappointed by him ever. I might have to try reading Left to You now thank you!
      Yeah agree! So many extreme horror authors are absolute SWEETIES!!! I get so mad when people leave me comments judging extreme horror authors or people like myself who read extreme horror. So much judgement surrounding the genre.

  • @sophieh.2533
    @sophieh.2533 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think I might try to give another chance to extreme horror soon, it might not be about *science fiction* films, but maybe I'll read Violence on the Meek? I usually read supernatural horror things, and I'd like to read one where everything hits the fan! PS. I sincerely hope you keep making honest videos like you always do, it's what makes them so interesting! In French, we have an idiom that translates to "a cat is a cat"... if a book is trash, why try to find some redeeming qualities 😅

    • @ReadingWithMeg
      @ReadingWithMeg  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Violence on the meek is just an angry man doing terrible things lol if you’re looking for more of a sci-fi extreme horror I would recommend Them by Mique Watson (from TH-cam here) or something supernatural/crazy would be Hell by Judith Sonnet.
      And thank you soooo much 🥹❤️

    i got tara on my kindle ready to read so this review is at least an okay sign,
    though now i will be looking forward to a "breast" word count to see if i will also find it annoying.
    Also enjoy the snuff film genre, no idea why ... i've not seen a good film in that style since 8mm it seems
    only books (like bret easton ellis's less than zero) that know how to write about the genuine creepiness
    of the theme

    My favorite extreme horror movie reviewer is getting everything demonized. He has a Patron and I like it because I can see the reviews uncensored. And his Discord is great. Because this is his job the Patreon saves him. I think the tube is doing this to all transgressive extreme content.

    • @ReadingWithMeg
      @ReadingWithMeg  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It’s sooo frustrating!! And Amazon is doing it to authors too and not showing some of their books when you search for them. It’s so sad what’s been going on and happening. I’ll definitely keep this in mind for the future.

  • @teresarollen7425

    • @ReadingWithMeg
      @ReadingWithMeg  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thank you!! Basically they say “this isn’t suitable for most viewers/advertisers” so then they don’t run ads on your video which is how you get paid. so if you curse too much, share offensive material, etc. but they are very random videos of mine where not a whole lot was going on so it’s not even a video that would be more understandable which is what I find irritating.
