minus-squareRebekahWSD@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 hours agoI read all the Xanth novels as a teenager and it probably made my brain mushy. More mushy. My brain is just very mushy. The first few books were okay…ish, but they just got worse. And not just in a sexist way, but also a poorly written way.
minus-squareClay_pidgin@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-220 minutes agoYeah, they were fine for my low standards as a young teenager, but I reread a couple and they aren’t great. Heck, book one has the MC making an amicus brief on the wrong side of a rape trial.
