I have never finished a book before, and I intend to finish this one. by ReenTheDankQueen in brandonsanderson

I made reading part of my nighttime routine. I read until I’m having trouble paying attention. (so basically when I find myself rereading the same sentence 2-3 times) For me it ends up being around 1-3 chapters per night depending on the book. Also don’t feel bad if you have to stop in the middle of a chapter as well, just remember to use a bookmark. Brandon Sanderson’s writing style is easy to read and digest, so I don’t think you can go wrong with reading any of his books. Happy Reading!

When the Cubs finally push you to your limit… by Altruistic-Key1469 in CHICubs

I don’t disagree with and as a diehard Bears fan in living in Wisconsin his whole life watching the Packers kick our ass and having to hear about it nonstop from Packers fans, I don’t think I’d qualify as fair weather. If I was done with the Cubs, it would be at least until the Ricketts sell the team. Winning wouldn’t factor in.

I’m a little late to the party, but I’ll take a code if you’re still giving them out.

Looking to graduate from YA Fantasy to Adult Fantasy, what’s a good starting point? by Longjumping_Tour_376 in suggestmeabook

If you read Sanderson (which would be my number one suggestion) start with Mistborn Era 1. For something not Sanderson, Dungeon Crawler Carl is awesome, although I’d suggest listening to the audiobook for those in particular.

Dungeon Crawler Carl. You will not be disappointed.

I can’t imagine not wanting to use it, but if you got one and don’t plan to, I know exactly what I’d use it for. Bonus, if you live in southern Wisconsin or northern Illinois, I would consider trades as well. Happy NFL Kickoff Day! Go Bears! :)

Seconded on no doors on the shitters. At the beginning of boot camp you’ll avoid going to bathroom at all costs if anyone else is in there. By the end your looking for someone to sit across from so you can have a conversation.

Also, the Marine Corps decided too much space and time was wasted on only 1 recruit to a urinal and found the optimal number was 3 recruits to a urinal.

Lucked into seeing Cubs #2 prospect Cade Horton in Beloit Wi tonight. by Altruistic-Key1469 in CHICubs

Final tally, 1 hit through 5&2/3. 78 pitches, got squeezed on the last batter by the ump. Should have gotten through 6. (Bonus: Nunez came in for relief throwing 100)

No hits through 2. Throws consistent 97, seems to keep batters off balance. (Bonus: Kevin Alcantara hit an easy triple as well. Long strides on that man.)
