I don't get why people feel the need to do this. It's become way more prevalent, and comments in the Prince of Thorns thread finally got to me lol. People in there are going "the main character is an edgelord and the people who follow him shouldn't but I've only read the first chapter and stopped cause I couldn't handle the ridiculousness of it."

I've reviewed books I haven't finished before, but I at least get that out of the way BEFORE I say my feelings. It's exhausting to come on this sub, which is fucking amazing and has boosted my TBR by like hundreds, and try to read peoples thoughts and then get to the end and* see "well I stopped after chapter 4, the book was a 1 star." Half of the complaints about Prince of Thorns are about plotlines that get resolved THROUGHOUT the book! Why bother even going into a thread to go "this made no sense, and this was fucking stupid, and it wasn't explained at all in the first 5 pages! 0 stars!"

Sorry for my ridiculous rant, I'm bored at work, but good lord; if you don't read past the first few chapters, say that. Don't review, get called out, and then 10 comments down go "oh well yeah, I didn't make it past the prologue actually."
