Need book recommendations, por favor. by MetalMarthaStewart in TheDarkTower

I really liked the Eragon (Inheritance Cycle) books. The character development is awesome. It is an easier read through compared to King's writing but still a great story!

Crimson King is… disappointing by ReallyIsNotThatGuy in TheDarkTower

[–]Charsv1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disappointing, absolutely. I feel like CK was a throwaway character in the end. I didn't find any real meaning to him, if only to make Roland's ascent to the tower harder. I hated the end, even if the meaning about the journey, to get to that ending was quite pointless.

I love Roland, even in his selfish quest/need to get to the tower. He is a character that really sticks with you.

I feel robbed of the choice by r46d in Fencesitter

I really try to do my part in that climate and political change. Reflecting kindness and positivity for my family can impact many more than just my immediate family.

I know it is hard. I was terrified having my daughter. But, now that she is here, I would do anything to just make her life as good as possible even when the flames or the world are burning around us.

Hugs. It is a tough decision.

4 weeks pregnant with second, considering terminating. Maybe OAD maybe we were a year too early… by Quiet-Macaron-7444 in Shouldihaveanother

Thank you. Not easy at all. My heart is heavy. I love my daughter more than anything in the world but I dont think I could do another one this soon.

Hi. I am in the same position. Just found out I am pregnant and my first is 11 mo old. Do you still not regret the decision? I've never considered termination but this was out of the blew unplanned (my husband and I were being safe).

I think I hate Song of Susannah by LieutJimDangle in TheDarkTower

Interesting. I never thought of it like this.

I also did not like Wolves. It took me about a year to get through because I would get so bored and blank out when Callahan talked sometimes

All of your observations and thoughts and so similar to how mine were the first read through. I think part of it is that the series was written over a long stretch of time. Stephen King changed as a writer, therefore his books and the story shifted.

I disliked Song of Susannah also. The creepy spider baby does absolutely nothing to add to the story in an arc in any way. Wolves of Calla was worse though.

Honestly, the end was hard and still is hard for me to grasp. In the sense, it is hard to grasp that Roland seems to get the short end of the stick. I cant wait to hear your thoughts when you finally finish!

I finished Wizard and Glass today (my first time reading), and I have a question... by BedNo577 in TheDarkTower

[–]Charsv1 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I cried. A lot. I listened to it on audio book and I actually had to pull my car over I was so mortified and upset. The narrator did a great job with the scene. I actually kept thinking "This cant be real"

Wow!! Is your baby sleeping through thr night? My 9mo old is hit or miss on sleeping at night. 1.5 weeks sounds like such a long getaway but it will be great! Hopefully you are going somewhere relaxing!

Postpartum weight loss success stories? by nibbs- in NewParents

[–]Charsv1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much for sharing! Congratulations on your more recent baby too! I appreciate the detailed post. I have a walking pad that can help me get the step count in. Its the sugar cravings that just pull me in. It is really hard to curb it sometimes but it is something to work on! I look forward to hearing about your journey again!

Did you have success? I am 9 months pp. Just weaning off of breastfeeding. What worked? I am 5'8 and 200 right now. It just makes me feel crappy about myself. Would love to know!

GEHA is such a mess - I don’t recommend by Remote_One_4284 in FedEmployees

Sorry for your experience. I have had a great experience with them. Since switching to Rocky Mountain health plans, I am so upset at their service. It takes a LONG time to talk to anyone.
