About this deal

Just that there were some really good parts that I really would have loved to see more of in Massive.

I would not have minded this so much if it wasn't for the blurb and the COVER of the book which obviously (mis)led me to believe this was a book on ED. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. In this way of thinking, the fact that women show a lot of skin or that men curse in public is not a sign of cultural decay. notebook: good on the drug-like pull of biscuits and big Macs, cake and crisps and chocolate bars, the soft sweet mess in your mouth, tongue slick with it. It's a brilliantly rendered portrait of how the disease of anorexia develops as a symptom of a dysfunctional family dynamic and progresses, afflicting not only its primary victim but also future generations.It showcases the best in capturing manga girls, romantic characters and scenes, and action and adventure. And that’s part of the power of the book: hating Carmen’s mother while at the same time feeling a great sense of sadness for her.

The second group is people who refuse to accept the relative amount of war deaths as a better measurement than absolute deaths.I found the most issue in the characters and their (lack of) development, as well as the (at times) overly descriptive writing that ultimately hindered my ability to understand what was going on instead of enhancing it. It started off a little too out there for me to really understand what was happening, but I gave it some time, because obviously you can't judge a book by a few pages. It's a wild and whimsical ride that feels like it has Doctor Who and maybe TTRPGs at its core, with a love of television and clever timey-wimey and parallel universe (para-welly-telly? The first book follows world history up until the French Revolution and analyzes the differences between the pre-modern state systems in each major civilization and why they developed in the direction that they did. The writing style itself is slick - characters don't hesitate to speak their mind, and much of what is said is either ludicrously improbable (scratching that sci fi itch), or outright relateable (often in relation to the improbability someone else just fired off).

But with big books, you’re not just visiting the author’s brain, you’re entering into a romantic relationship with it. What follows is a whirlwind of madness, plots and intrigue, looming war for the Building, all centered upon Wild Massive, a magic-based theme-park designed to tell the history of the building and the Association. Many of the less enthusiastic reviews are that Moore gets really deep into explanations of what's going on - and I would say that's a positive, as opposed to what some of the other reviewers have said.There are so many fun ideas: office politics between infinitely powerful beings, all the theme parks/their corresponding media monopoly, the multiverse as an infinite building, etc. I liked it, despite a slightly messy ending, and if Moore were to revisit the world of the Building in another story, I'd probably be onboard.

Reason two was that you were fucked in some major way, which she hadn’t experienced herself, but you heard stories if you lived this life long enough. Aside from his anxiety, his book was a parody of this exact facet of American culture — blindly pursuing the hot new thing, ignorant of any depth or meaning or significance. Like there were infodumps that made it feel a bit like a slog, but also, I hadn't the foggiest idea of what was happening.But Fukuyama intended them to be two parts to a single grand work, so that’s how I consider them here. He had learned that there is a limit to suffering and a limit to freedom, and that those limits are very close; that the man who suffers because one leaf is askew in his bed of roses, suffers as much as he now suffered falling asleep on the bare, damp ground. the rest of the cast of characters are mainly Carmen's mother's family and they seem to, for the most part, skirt around her mother's obvious ED, and disregard Carmen's own absorption of her mother's insecurities and dieting ways.
