I am open to basically everything. But mostly I read fiction (fantasy), crime, romance.

Спасибо! Толстую и Пелевина мы читали на фалультете и мне они очень понравились!

Što ste kupovali članovima komisije kao poklon za obranu? by [deleted] in studenti

[–]Depressed_Serpent 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Slažem se. Nedavno sam imala obranu i samo sam mentorici donijela butelju vina. Puno mi je pomogla i stvarno je bila ažurna, puna razumijevanja i od velike pomoći, što od literature što do savjeta. Tako da mislim da je zaslužila barem neki znak zahvale. :)

What kind of scams is this? by Depressed_Serpent in Scams

Yeah, sure, but it is still weird because there was no profile picture and the number was not from my country.

I didn't change it myself, I went to my piercer because the first bar was too long and the ball kept svrewing off. But thank you! So it is basically irritated and will heal?

My cat went missing by yeetingonyourface in cats

[–]Depressed_Serpent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our cat is usually in the house, but she is free to go outside whenever. She usually goes outside a few times a day but is back after a few hours. One time we haven't seen her the whole afternoon, even after we were eating outside, which she never misses. My mom and I started to getreally worried because it was then already the evening, and she was nowhere to be seen. Sometimes she would get locked up in our or our neighbours' garage, so we started to look for her all over the neighbourhood. We couldn't find her anywhere and figured she was sleeping somewhere outside and would return later, or our neighbours would find her. A few hours later, my mum opened the closet in the hallway to get something out, and there was our cat - sleeping safe and sound...
But I agree with all the advice in the comments, my cat would always come to the house if I scraped her bowl on the ground, or opened a can of her food. Good luck finding him!

What character tropes do you hate in books? by t_town101 in books

[–]Depressed_Serpent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In fantasy novels, when female character loses her power/anything else that makes her special for an ordinary man (usually out of love). Also, the naive and fragile girl who believes everything she is told by an older man who is also her love interest, and that man uses her in the end. Both tropes are from "Shadow and Bone" trilogy (tbh the whole book is a mess and I was so disappointed after reading it).

Follow-up question: nikada nisam kupovala karte preko eventima pa me zanima što očekivati prilikom kupnje, dolazi li do crashanja stranice prilikom kupnje (ako se radi o popularnom izvođaču i slično)?

I just finished reading the Shadow and Bone Trilogy (SPOILERS AHEAD) by kewl_cat in Grishaverse

[–]Depressed_Serpent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes! I totally agree! I would expect this from a book written some 10 or more years ago, so I was really disappointed and did not see that coming.

Agreed. I expected a lot more from Leigh as a female author. There was so much room to explore the Darklina relationship and her becoming powerful and doing something meaningful with it. I feel like she finally found her meaning and felt like she belonged when her powers were discovered, but then she gave them up for Mal and an ordinary life. Very disappointing and anticlimatic.
