Interesting... Could be because you are more emotional about animals than people? temeraire Send a noteboard - 16/04/2011 10:08:00 PM
I dunno, of course, since i am not you... I like robin hobb's animal perspectives very much. She is awesome at creating very relatable characters. I have a great deal of empathy for animals and people, especially when well written. I definitely have had trouble with authors having poorly written characters or characters that are just such total assholes that I can't empathize.
"it's like the real world, except there's dragons!"

cw, you are missed...
