Hello, I have been playing piano for seven years yet I have never been great at it. When I was younger I had regular piano practices but never really tried to learn anything. My piano teacher basically gave up on me and suggested I use YouTube or any other easy methods to pick up songs quickly, therefore I never learnt keyboard geography. When I play i memorize easily so I usually just look at my hands but now I actually want to become a good pianist so im looking for any tips or advice to improve my technical skills.

I didn't mind the first couple of books in the series with lo and lily. I thought their story was cute, a little weird but cute nevertheless. I felt that Connor and Rose stories were a little bland and boring but I also didn't mind those books. I thought that this series was fine until they added in Daisy and Ryke. That story was so weird to me. When they first met Daisy was underage. To me reading the story even though Ryke kept on acting like he wasn't flirting with a underage minor it still felt like they were. I could immediately tell they were getting together and that was so weird. Why are we normalizing this in books. I never see anyone mention it and every ignores how disgusting it was to read. It was so obvious that Ryke a full grown adult was flirting with a minor but he denied it and I just felt it strange that the writer would even write this. I quit the series after that. The book got weird and I was not about to read that anymore. Like was it just me thinking this cause why is the series still so popular on tiktok

I do not like Claire. In my opinion she acts like a baby and is an extremely annoying friend. She always basically said that she likes Shannon more as a friend than lizzy. Which is strange to me bc why are we comparing friends. Also i hate how she is all consumed by gibsie she doesnt ever think clearly and relies way on him to much. When she leaked Gibsie getting raped and than didnt really apologize for it pissed me off even more. Why would you leak someone truama like that. It was so inconsiderate and I really wanted gibise to dump her for it bc how could you ever do that to a person. But he couldn't dump her bc they are obsessed with each other and have an unhealthy relationship.

Still Beating by Jennifer Hartmann is so bad. I wanted to find a good romance book to read that also made you cry at times, but this book was the complete opposite and it was so recommended. Mandy gets so much hate online but I relate to her character so much. I felt for her bc please tell me why her sister and ex fiancee were basically cheating behind her back and then did it a week after they broke up and when she confronted her sister about it and left that same day her sister tried to commit suicide reading that scene was so disapointing bc it was so bad. The book was ridiculous. I was not sympathizing with Cora at all. I felt that nobody respected Mandy's feelings at all and the book was more focused on romance then self discovery after the traumatizing event they went through. And don’t even get me started on the serial killer who kidnapped them. The killer was so bad. He was feeding them and making them drink water and pee in the toilet every single day. He just told them a whole bunch of empty threats that were so useless. And the way Dean took down that killer was so simple like r u srs this big bad killer got taken down from a push to the ground and some punches?  Mind you it was so anti-climantic. That's personally how I felt but I'm open to hearing more opinions on this book bc im considering DNF im nearly at the end but i just find the plot so stupid.
