minus-squaresaigot@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-28 months agoI liked most of the books, but I hate the long songs. Maybe this is a hot take but authors should not put in songs longer than a few lines.
minus-squareabsGeekNZ@lemmy.nzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·8 months agoI always skip a song that is more than a few (max 5) lines long
minus-squaredaltotron@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·8 months agoYeah no I hate songs in books. Most of the time it’s pretty hard to figure out what the actual tune of the song is supposed to be sung like, unless the author’s pretty good at it, and most aren’t.
