    I literally gasped when you dnf’d Mr Magic. Then I laughed my head off that I was so invested in this. 🤣😂 Book drama - it’s high stakes decisions being made here.

    I can say that at least for the Mister Magic the characters acting younger than their actual age had an actual logical/psycogical explanation. I read it pretty quick but found most things obvious.

    The fact that ur family is wearing your merch and being together like friends is all that melts my heart every time I watch ur vlog❤❤❤🥲🥲🥲who needs, friends, when, u have an, awesome family dynamic like gabby❤❤❤❤❤❤

    I liked Mister Magic. I think them seeming younger made sense to me, because of the trauma they endured.

  • @LoQualityReads
    @LoQualityReads Před 10 měsíci +10

    I read Mister Magic and for some random reason I read the acknowledgements before (i never do this) and the author talks about growing up Mormon. I think the entire story is an allegory for being a member of the Mormon church. Honestly, had I not read the acknowledgements first I probably would've DNF'd because it is super confusing. BUT since i knew that I could really appreciate some of the connections she was making from the show to her experience.

    • @isabellavalentine7268
      @isabellavalentine7268 Před 10 měsíci

      That’s so interesting- as someone who left the Mormon church and who has this on her TBR, I can’t wait to see some of those connections

    Mr. Magic sounds so much like a story on creepy pasta named 'Candlecove'. It's a pretty short story and gives you the creep that you've been searching for.

    While I was reading Mister Magic I thought that the children were traumatized and it caused arrested development. I finished it and gave it 3 stars.

    • @VeraFran
      @VeraFran Před 10 měsíci +1

      I gave it 3.5 because at least it kept me interested, even though I guessed great part of the story.

      @bloggagens My interest fluctuated. It would grab me then bore me. I do not want to give examples due to spoilers, but I am glad that you were able to enjoy it more than I did.

    I only started watching your videos a few months ago during summerween and I'm really starting to understand how different our tastes are. 😂 Obviously there's nothing wrong with that, but I literally said "NO!" out loud when you DNF'ed Mr. Magic. I gave that book 5 stars and totally loved it! Lol! But I kinda figured out what was going on early on in it. And I did read some of the acknowledgements about halfway through the book, and figured out the story she was trying to tell through this one and it made me enjoy it more. But I can totally understand the confusing side of it too.

    So... mister magic. If you DO end up picking it back up...read the authors note. I felt like that changed a lot of my perspectives about the book and meanings. And maybe I'm reading too much into it.... but I thought it was a very interesting metaphor.

    No I loved Mister Magic! Reading the authors note is so important I think. I loved the religious/cult trauma aspect of it. Black River Orchard was brilliant! Absolutely loved it. The body horror was so good. It needs to be a movie

  • @cindywingetbooks
    @cindywingetbooks Před 10 měsíci

    You didn't miss anything with Mister Magic. I wish i had DNFed it. What a waste of time! I habe the arc of Black River Orchard, and although i am still intimidated by the length, i am excited to read it now. I just bought My Roommate the Vampire ☹️ bummer. I also really enjoyed Night's Edge.

    A lot of the new covid variants aren't showing up on rapid tests. Some advise swabbing your throat and then your nose for better test result or a pcr test from your provider. Unfortunately, covid can kind of hurt your immune system making you more susceptible to picking up other things...so that could be why you keep getting sick if you picked up covid in Japan. Hope you start to feel better soon. Being sick is no fun.

    Mister Magic was so disappointing. I read it as an ARC and it was so incredibly boring and the ending was like big whoop. It was very abstract. I would have DNF'd too if it hadn't been an ARC. I gave it 2.5 stars only because the author's note said that it was an allegory to her religious trauma and I appreciate the courage it took to write it. But it just didn't work for me.
