Finally getting around to reading The Goose Girl and oh my GOSH Ani is the female protagonist I needed please let her stay a bit shy and awkward please and thank you
#I’m living for the fact that she is socially awkward but she isn’t not feminine??? heck yeah!!!#also this is me completely giving up on stellarlune ladies and gents I cannot do it#no joke I skipped half of it on a whim and after a couple sentences for context was not lost at all. yikes.#I don’t know if I’ve just grown out of them or if the quality has actually gotten worse? I don’t know#because typically I’m capable of shutting my brain off and reading something not meant for my age group#I do that all the time no problem#I don’t know what it is with KOTLC all of a sudden??#maybe it’s the complete lack of subtext#EVERYTHING is spelled out for the reader#even if another character does something with a little bit of subtext (like Keefe flirting) the narration or Sophie explicitly calls it out#and goes ‘now WHAT could he mean by that?? could he be talking about HER???’ and therefore it is no longer subtext#I feel like this wasn’t an issue earlier on? I don’t know#also the one-sentence paragraphs for emphasis irk me to no end#but wait hold on that was a complete detour all of this to say the goose girl is a breath of fresh air (and giving me a lot of ideas for#how to spell eternity!)
