I first read it when I was like 15, tapped out in book 3.

Read it again as an adult, enjoyed it immensely, still missed a great deal of what was happening.

Third time I started to really start to plug into what Gene was laying down.

I've read it maybe 6 times now and I pick up new details and meanings every time.

Obviously that's a whole lot if you don't find value in the journey itself, and it's not like I'm recommending it or anything haha. I always tell people to start with his short stories. The Island Of Doctor Death And Other Stories is a great one.

How does their adult role model hitting them not just teach them that hitting is socially acceptable?

Teaching this to a kid without empathy seems like the worst imaginable circumstance lol.

And I sure as hell don't want someone other than the parents ever making that decision.

If a joke that slight makes you super mad, you probably shouldn't be on the internet bro.

It's really not that serious.

Thing's so top heavy he's gonna barely touch it and the whole thing will go toppling into the bathtub and instantly absorb 10x its weight in water.

Just like that, 42 cents down the drain.

The Girl from Earths End By Tara Dairman

It's like Harry Potter if you replace magic with botany, and JK Rowling's shittiest values with the opposite of that.

Also fair warning it will make you cry

I thought the telltale video game adaptation was interesting!

But yeah, a full epic series would be something else
