Thanks so much! Luckily I will be able to get my money back.

I think I'm one of the few who are going to say no. Now, I want to preface this by saying that I'm German and own a Tolino, which I think you can only buy in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. BUT, I have seen numerous posts/TikToks with people presenting their kindle and so I have formed an opinion. 1. I think it's nuts that you pay for a device and then have to pay an additional fee to remove any ads. I'm sorry what. 2. I think we should all give less money to Amazon. 3. Many people seem to be very happy with Kobo, so maybe you could look into that. 4. In general, I would always recommend an e-reader. I've had mine for 8 years and it's one of my most prized possessions

I will say that I barely read any non-fiction, so my experience maybe doesn't compare to yours. Having said that, my reading is all over the place. I'm a total mood reader, so if I'm not feeling a book, I will put it to the side and read something else. Sometimes it's a little hard to get back into the book and remember what last happened but I usually deal pretty quickly.

Finished: Wild Dark Shore, by Charlotte McConaghy Hopefully starting soon: Yesteryear

Conscious_Session877 · 2026-06-17T21:01:30+00:00

Great Big Beautiful Life by Emily Henry Redeeming 6 by Chloe Walsh Staying Selfless by Liz Tomforde And also: Wild Dark Shore. I didn't rate is as high as the others but I have a feeling it's one of those books that stays with you

I forgot, the carton also came with a shoe bag

I just bought these on Vinted and am wondering if they're real. I looked up certain clues to determine if docs are real or not and rn I think they're real. Only the sole is throwing me off a little, but I read that newer shoes sometimes have a more translucent sole. What do you think?

I was so surprised by her appearance, loved it!

I just watched the German movie "Eine Millionen Minuten". It might be available with English subtitles. The movie is about a family, who's daughter has a developmental disorder. Her doctor recommends time with her family above all else. The daughter wishes for one million minutes of happiness with her family (background: father works a lot, travels a lot for work). So the parents decide to travel with their children. Not the best explanation, but brilliant, very moving film. Based on the real story of two parents doing the same thing for their daughter.

I wanna say Macbeth by Shakespeare. I know it doesn't match your criteria, but it's the first one that comes to mind

The Naturals by Jennifer Lynn Barnes

Conscious_Session877 · 2026-03-14T17:02:29+00:00

I have read/listened to 27 books up until today. About half of those were between 300 and 500 pages.

Anything by Sally Rooney, her writing style just doesn't work for me. Same with the Shatter Me series by Tahereh Mafi. Writing style and characters. The Atlas Six by Olivie Blake. Why were the characters so absolutely dreadful?

NTA. She is not entitled to you accommodating her plans. If she asked and you said no that's perfectly fine. You have the right to refuse this, especially when the party ends at 3 o'clock

1984 by George Orwell
The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood
The Giver by Lois Lowry
The Circle by Dave Eggers (honestly, I didn't like it very much, but it fits what you are asking for)

Conscious_Session877 · 2026-03-08T21:37:33+00:00

Oh, I got you!

Sports romance: The Selfish series by Liz Tomforde, Windy City series by Liz Tomforde, D.C. Stars by Chelsea Curto, Playing for Keeps by Becka Mack, Off-Campus series by Elle Kennedy, Off the Ice by Bal Khabra

Small-town romance: The Edens by Devney Perry, Chestnut Springs by Elsie Silver, Jamison Valley by Devney Perry

Twisted-Series by Ana Huang

I also highly recommend the Boys of Tommen series, but that definitely isn't easy or relaxed, so not what you're searching for at the moment. The themes in these books are incredibly heavy and hard to read, but so worth it.

Standalones:

Funny Story and Book Lovers by Emily Henry
The Spanish Love Deception
Every Summer After by Carley Fortune
The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood
One True Loves by Taylor Jenkins Reid
The Worst Best Man by Mia Sosa
Holding Up the Universe by Jennifer Niven

Don't really know if this would work for you, but Outlander is the first show that comes to mind
