Booker Prize winner? cool i guess but what's the actual point of these festivals just a bunch of wankers patting each other on the back while the city's falling apart
Word Christchurch Festival line-up released yawn. Another excuse for the council to waste rates money on something nobody asked for
stoked to see some Kiwi music legends in the line-up! might actually be worth going this year
bro, actually some good acts this time. Don't be so negative
yeah nah same old same old. Just a way to pat themselves on the back
you reckon? half the line-up is musicians who haven't had a hit since the 90s

Stuff reporting this like it's the second coming. We get it, you love free PR for your mates in the arts scene
okay stuff. Tell us how you really feel about your sponsors
Romantasy? Gritty real-life tales? Sounds like they're trying to please everyone and ended up with a mess. But hey at least it's not another food festival
vibrant programme they say... more like boring as hell. who actually reads books anymore
wait wait wait - romantasy?? ok I'm actually intrigued. anyone know if there's going to be author Q&As or just performances?
right? the romantasy bit caught my eye too. Might be the only decent thing they've done all year
Another thing for the elites. Meanwhile the rest of us can't afford to live here. But yeah, enjoy your word festival 🖕
ffs it's not that deep. some people just enjoy words mate
thinking a book festival is for elites. Go touch grass
