little house on the prairie
I read the Little House on the Prairie books when I was little. Thought they were true until I was an early teen, when I learned there were "questions". Then I forgot about them for years and years.
Until this year, when someone mentioned on Twitter that a respected character was actually kind of dumb, and I thought, ".... yeah... that's right, huh. Looking at it from an adult point of view....".
And then I ran into Ana Mardoll this week and the game was well and truely Up, and Treed, and Shot.
Ya, so, that's a thing. The books are a dumpster fire. And the lives they were based on were sort of that way too. Beware the pen of a writer.
