Physically abusive Elves with low credit and look like they eat cigarettes…or cloves
Yeah, I’m sure these horny women picture the Grunka Lunkas from Futurama (mocking Oompa Loompas). How come these elves (and independent fantasy women for that matter) are always really into archery? Talk about realistic expectations…
Not your average elf:
And who I am guessing probably interact with Goodreads at a higher rate than men. I’ve just deleted their email requests to vote, and don’t review or track, and I think I’m not alone. I don’t bother with it because I read print as well as kindle, which prompts you. So the list reflects a certain demographic. People who care about reading lists.

Who has time to read every new book that comes out? I’d say only two percent of books are worth reading at best. I like good books, but I care nothing for trends.
Good points!
As a woman, I’ve read 19 of these. lol

I’ve read 4 of them I think. One was an audiobook on a road trip. I don’t think “romantacy” is for me (or most traditional fantasy), but a good psychological thriller or whodunit is fun after a heady science fiction read.
Funny, I read an advice column recently where a husband was seriously worried that his wife could become a serial killer. She loved murder TV shows and books. The columnist basically said, “You married a woman and women love that stuff. Relax, dude.”

What’s wrong with liking lists? They made Letterman’s career. They built Buzzfeed. I like lists. Or used to.
When Internet ads first became a thing, I saw 10 Secrets DOCTORS don’t want you to know!!! and I was like, “what could they be”? But now advertisers have gotten lazy. 10 Commandments. 2 Hononyms of “Two”. It’s too much to bother!
As for the list, I bought five of those books but have only read one of them. At least 80% of what I read is non-fiction.
Same. I’m a psychological thriller girl, through and through.
#facts lol.

Somewhere we were discussing knife fights and now I can’t find the thread. So I’ll just put this here: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/JTMSlUBYlrM
I asked Grok 2 to draw me (via X). It seemed to use my profile image… and it added a lot of body fat and an unkept beard. I don’t like that robot. This guy could definitely repair an F-150 though.
