Crying Over How Quick Tina's Family Was To Reassure Her That She's Pretty Like Bob Didnt Even HESITATE

crying over how quick tina's family was to reassure her that she's pretty 😭😭💕 like bob didnt even HESITATE he loves his babygirl so much. and linda saying her gene and louise are the most beautiful people in the entire world

Ya’ll don’t understand the sheer joy that I have that Allison and Ichirou are becoming a ship that people talk about, it’s something I’ve been thinking about since my 4th read through of the series and now fics are being written and there are posts!! One day there might be art!! It just makes me really happy lol

If I can figure out a plot point that’s causing me trouble I will also be posting a fic with them lol

Excellent points made!! And you know how I combat this when I rec it to people? I say hey I love this series but here are the things that I find problematic and the things I think you should know before reading. I don’t bash Nora as a writer or as a person.

It's been bothering me for a few days now, so:

I saw someone's list of reasons aftg is badly written, and most of them were entirely unrelated to the writing. It was largely a list of morality complaints and matters of taste with very few actual notes on the writing itself.

Something can be amoral and well written. Something can be highly moral and poorly written. These two traits have no correlation to each other whatsoever.

I fully understand if the quality of moral expression in a work makes someone unable to enjoy reading it, but that is not the same thing as bad writing.

I'm not going to pretend the series is perfect, but there is a reason it has captured so many hearts. That reason is in the writing right there alongside the issues. You'd think with someone as complex and wonderful and deeply flawed as Andrew being the most popular character, this fandom in particular would know to appreciate something for its flaws as much as its strengths

Choosing the books to go on my sweatshirt was so hard!!!! But my beloved foxes of course made the cut ❤️

I got Twitter account (I’m not calling it X) literally just to tell Nora I love her and her books and I hope she’s able to ignore the assholes and once it’s been a few days where I hope she see it then I’m gonna delete the account because there are some HATEFUL “fans” on twitter. I mean what the heck?!

@fortheloveofexy is always feeding me

The thing about Aaron being a recovering addict while also trying to become a doctor is that eventually he's going to have to confront his past. Eventually, he's going to have to face himself.

Imagine him as medical intern, tending to a record high of overdosed addicts flooding the ER during the second wave of the opioid epidemic in the 2010's. How would he feel, seeing where his life could have ended, over and over again, were it not for Andrew's twisted idea of an intervention?

Imagine him later, as a resident, working long shifts and barely sleeping, constantly surrounded by the temptation of the very same pills he would have shoved down his throat in seconds at fifteen years old. Imagine with each pain pill prescription he writes, he is back on that bathroom floor, sweating out sickness and hatred as he begs to be let out, the cold tile like ice against his cheek.

Imagine his past addiction being a greater stain on his record as an attending surgeon than the fact that he's killed someone. People still sometimes die in his OR - it's the nature of the beast, of trying to save lives - but Aaron can never swallow another pill.
