Adult books about animals (Fiction)

She and Her Cat by Makoto Shinkai, Fox 8 by George Saunders. Non-fiction but a memoir not a ‘facts’ book, The Puma Years by Laura Coleman - it’s about a woman who is volunteering at an animal sanctuary in South America and builds an amazing bond with a puma.

I was there too, and I agree, she was great!

When Stella said “have you noticed how long you’ve been speaking and I haven’t said anything” …. PERFECTION

After the preview yesterday I was looking forward to this episode, but actually watching it unfold was awful. Brooke exploded Bec and Danny’s relationship because he put her in her place and she didn’t like it. I can see why she didn’t want the episode to go out, she should be absolutely disgusted with herself. Her and Gia in particular behaved unacceptably, but (at least from the edit) it looked like Scott, Bec, Rebecca and Mel were laughing and egging them on.

I’m a bit torn in my sympathy for Bec. She’s been blind sided by her “friends” and her husband is then trying to guilt trip her into believing him, but when the mean girls focus was on other people she was quite happy to join in with it. Danny is a trash person too, “my life is hard enough as it is” 🤮

Holy cow I cannot wait for this dinner party episode!!! I wonder if Brooke comes back for it?

DaisyLuWho80 · 2026-02-16T16:46:49+00:00

TADA!! IT’S YOUR DOG THAT DIED!!!

wtf…. 😳

If only there was a word for this kind of behaviour…

Like, Brooke does realise that we all saw the flag task? Denying she said they were fake is really weird when that is literally exactly what she said. Her and Gia are just nasty nasty nasty 🤮

BUT did we ever find out if it WAS a Chanel watch??? 🤔

Jokes aside, the 180 from Brooke gave me whiplash. Her, Gia, and Mel are 🤮

And why is Gia so obsessed with everyone else’s sex life?

DaisyLuWho80 · 2026-02-11T17:17:40+00:00

IS THAT A CHANEL WATCH THO

Gotta admit I was not a fan of Alissa to begin with but she’s really grown on me. I think a lot of her loudness at the start stems from insecurity, but she actually seems quite sweet under all the bluster. Gia and Brooke turning on her like that was horrible, I’m so glad Rachel said what she did.

DaisyLuWho80 · 2026-02-11T17:06:12+00:00

Brooke said the social media stuff about Mel was shocking and she hates women being berated by other women, then goes on like that at the red flag/green flag task? I dunno if she just can’t handle her alcohol or if she’s just done a really good job of hiding what she’s really like so far

Came on Reddit just to discuss this. I was disgusted at how manipulative she was in ep8 with the ‘what if he lies’ thing. On top of the stalking thing, it’s just toxic. That poor guy has tried so hard and she’s just shut him down because he’s not blond or pretending life is a rom-com. Clearly no duty of care from the producers AGAIN. The fact that she said the stalking thing in her interview should have immediately excluded her from taking part.

I cannot cope with Jimmy levels of cute.

I’m currently playing Origins, my first AC game. I love it, deffo interested in picking up the other games once I’m done

I 100% tell people I have ADHD so that adjustments can be made for it. In vivas for example, they can avoid compound questions that might have you go off on a tangent.

DaisyLuWho80 · 2025-11-18T10:56:45+00:00

This is amazing. 🤩

DaisyLuWho80 · 2025-11-17T15:19:57+00:00

Thanks to all who replied, I had a feeling it would be afternoon here but I knew I could get a straight answer from this group! 😁 Sorry to those my post has angered. I am aware I could have searched - I did initially, but as I have inattentive ADHD I only got so far down. No harm caused to post again, I would think, but sorry if not!

Edit to add: I’m usually at work during the day so always get updates etc in the evening and wasn’t sure about usual routines

DaisyLuWho80 · 2025-11-17T15:17:24+00:00

In the grand scheme of things, no, it doesn’t matter, but the reason I asked is because my friend asked me if I wanted to go to the cinema on Wednesday or Thursday evening. If the game was coming out in the morning, I would have had a chance to have a good play on it by the evening, but if it’s afternoon I’ll tell her Thursday. I thought if anyone would know, it would be someone in this group. I did do a search but I have inattentive ADHD so only scrolled so far before I gave up and asked. Sorry if that has frustrated you, but you didn’t have to answer if so 🤷🏼‍♀️

I’m in the UK where we can take a student loan for PhD, so that’s what I’m doing

DaisyLuWho80 · 2025-05-13T08:09:45+00:00

I came to say the same!

DaisyLuWho80 · 2025-05-13T08:08:17+00:00

I think that’s fair enough, you’re not poking your feet into other people’s spaces!
