Once again, y'all's disdain for OCs is truly baffling because you sure do love a 'reader insert' who has a very specific personality, backstory, and even a nickname!

Also y'all can't imagine yourselves as the OC? You know what I do when I read that an OC has brown eyes? I ignore it! Or I imagine myself with brown eyes!

i’d like to add that so many readers of romance novels, or physical books in general, constantly state that they can’t get into a book unless they find the main character relatable or could almost see themselves within them / within the book. these books sell millions of copies and people love them. so ya’ll saying you can’t imagine yourselves / hate oc’s but will spend your money on physical books and reimagine yourself within them is wild to me if i’m being honest lmao.

Mr Speaker, I was raised in a family that endured living conditions that would test the morality of even the most virtuous. Indeed ... indeed, even the best of us would have their virtues trounced and thwarted by a life in the meanness and the bitterness of an overcrowded British slum. - What would you know about virtue?
