this isn't even the case in the book, every character has their own rooms and they are only gathered together during games and stuff. which means they are forced to be right next to each other at all times. why would you use the quotes that aren't in your book for the sole purpose of promoting your book? and how would you not know which quotes are in your book when the book is right in front of you? one of the tropes that are mentioned in alex's videos that are allegedly in the book is the "forced proximity" trope. Either not word for word, but there, or only in the final copy not the arc." im sorry but that makes zero sense. This was the explanation alex made on tiktok when someone asked her why the quotes weren't in her book: "All those moments are in there. hell, this book didn't even contain the TROPES and QUOTES that we were promised, you know, the ones she posted on tiktok for the purpose of PROMOTING her book. i've been following alex aster for a while now and she seemed like a really nice author, replying to my messages, and i have nothing against her but alex, really? i mean, come on. i almost screamed when i got the audio-arc thingy cause this was on my "anticipated releases" tbr and all, but now i regret even requesting this book on netgalley (it was probably an auto approve arc anyway lol). This was disappointing on SO many levels, i don't even know where to start.
