Wait, Y'all Can SEE the Characters?

from That's A Choice

In the debut episode of That’s a Choice, we’re diving into the polarized world of book ratings. Why does it feel like everyone is a professional critic these days? I explore why I’m a "gentle rater," the rare times I’ve actually put a book down, and how living with Aphantasia (being "blind in the mind") changes the way I escape into a story. Is my lack of a "mental movie" making me a more relaxed reader, or are we all just being a little too hard on authors who did the one thing we haven't: finished a book?Subscribe to the Side-Eye Society today. Because that's a choice - and it's the best one you'll make all week!
