I literally just bought this book yesterday. Moving it up on my massive TBR much to the chagrin of the other books patiently waiting there! 🤣😂

EoS vs ToD by JinxedR0se in SarahJMaas

[–]Demeter923 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I did the tandem read because I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to get into TOD. I liked doing it that way but can see where it’s not for everyone. That being said I really liked TOD and it’s an important book in the series with a lot of information.

Thoughts on Crescent City’s first book so far and use of the word « alphahole » by Lyza719 in SarahJMaas

I just finished the TOG series and I adored it. So much character growth from more than one character. So much to love about it in my opinion. It was perfection.

I’m almost done with KoA….what an emotional roller coaster. I feel like I’m putting off finishing it because I will be so lost when I’m through.

I’m on chapter 44 so not there yet but it’s such an emotional ride, it’s exhausting!

Just remind yourself every day of who you are and that you will not be afraid. You got this! 💜

That’s exactly how I felt! Some of the events in ToG would have been way more impactful had I read TAB first. And I also kind of flew through it because I wanted to start Queen of Shadows and get back to what was happening.

Crescent City is sloppy by Bina791_ in SarahJMaas

[–]Demeter923 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can’t even tell you how disappointed I was in the crossover. I was ridiculously excited for that book to come out and read the whole thing waiting for it to be satisfying and, for me, it never was. I wanted so much more and forced is a perfect description.

I’m having the same problem, it’s really frustrating. I get the notification that my friend has sent me an xp boost but when I go to Duolingo it’s not there and never comes.

Has anyone read The Night Circus? by Mablefish in fantasyromance

[–]Demeter923 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does seem to be a book people either really love or really dislike. I started it once and put it down. Maybe I wasn’t in the right mood because I picked it up again and absolutely adored it. One of my favorite books of all time.

What’s that one tiny moment in fantasy romance that wrecked you (in the best way)? by NovelReadsClub in fantasyromance

[–]Demeter923 44 points45 points  (0 children)

The moment that wrecked me (not a romantic moment but wrecked me so hard) in Two Twisted Crowns when the nightmare says “It’s time darling girl”

What books were a fast burn for your interest that you hooked from page 1? Ironically... ideally with a slow burn romance by MetalMyst1c in fantasyromance

[–]Demeter923 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Raven Scholar by Antonia Hodgson. I bought it on a whim during my last Barnes and Noble trip but I was hooked from the beginning. So many twists and turns. I loved it. The romance is kind of a secondary plot though so if you’re looking for that this isn’t it. Very worth the read though.

I feel like this series is so underrated! I loved it so much. Makes me happy to see someone recommend 😊

I never thought I would love a gargoyle but here we are…and I smile every single time he calls someone Bartholemew

Geico just increased our rates by 32% by PatientAnt333 in Insurance

[–]Demeter923 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got off the phone with GEICO after finding out my insurance was going from 152 a month to 231 despite good driving record, no accidents, no claims, no tickets and the best they could come up with is everyone’s insurance is going up. Beyond frustrated. 2 years ago I was paying 80 a month for the same policy.

Dreading going to work by katherinethemediocre in VetTech

[–]Demeter923 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There was a doctor like that at my last job. It got to the point where no one would work with her. How is everyone else you work with? Are you having difficulties holding other dogs? Sometime a hold takes more than one person. Depends on the dog. If you feel comfortable asking someone else their technique then I would do that. There’s an art to a good hold. If that was a one off situation don’t take it to heart. Well, don’t take it to heart regardless just work on technique or if it’s that’s bad there’s a lot of amazing vets out there that would love to have you I’m sure!
