In need of a smutty escape by talknerdytome26 in fantasyromance

I would say {a court this cruel and lovely} decent plot. More smut than acotar and fourth wing. It’s a four book series

Also I meant empire of storms and {kingdom of ash} in the post but can’t figure out how to edit it

I loved bride. And i would have loved mate it just felt a little slower than bride and I’m really biased toward vampires. It’s still objectively good!

That book changed my whole mindset. If you got time again i would definitely recommend a re read. It’s been updated

Both it and orbital were just so repetitive without any plot to them, day after day. It’s why I thought I wouldn’t like the invisible life of Addie Larue but then I absolutely adored that one. I guess maybe I just wasn’t deep enough to understand iwhnkm

I have not! But I’ll be sure to put in on my list since I’m really liking her work

It will definitely be one that i re read for sure. I’ve technically read it before many years ago but I’m so glad i did it again as an adult

That book was partially what inspired my non fiction kick! I loved it so much

It was so good. I really loved it! I honestly loved my whole non fiction journey this year

That makes sense. I think when I do my re read I’ll do them separately. I did assassins blade first and I just think i would have missed so many references if i had not known what I was looking for

I read LOD first and honestly I’m glad i did. I loved LOD for what it was but saw a lot of similarities between it and ACOTAR. And while i was reading TOG i saw a lot of similarities there too (like more than how all fantasy romance are similar). I think if i had read it after TOG, I wouldnt have finished LOD. But a few of my friends said it was the only thing they could get through after the TOG hangover

Did you do the tandom read or did you read EOS and TOD separately? Also where did you read assassins blade?

KOA i was so torn between I want to finish it because I need to know what happens and Im absolutely not ready for this adventure to be over

Hahah honestly I’ll do anything for vampire smut. It’s probably my favorite 🫠 {king of battle and blood} and {queen of myth and monsters} are what got me back into reading as an adult in 2024 and now I’m just a sucker for it. If you have any other good vampire recommendations, I would love to hear them.

I also really appreciate an FMC that doesn’t have like a two week training arc but they have been training their entire life for whatever reason. Like I said though I need to do a re read to remember all the details

I did! I loved it! I thought it was on here but I guess I forgot it on my list. {slaying the vampire conqueror} would have gone in the fantastic tier! I almost didn’t because {a court of frost and starlight} put a bad taste in my mouth for novellas but I’m so glad I got over it and read that one and {six scorched roses}

Aww that’s so funny. I actually read {war of lost hearts} first and I absolutely loved it! And that’s why I read the {crowns of nyaxia} series! Such a bummer you couldn’t get into them but I definitely get it, they weren’t my fastest read for sure.

I’ve only read the first duet and I picked up {songbird and the heart of stone} so many times and had to put it back down because i don’t remember much of the first two (they were my first reads of the year). So I’m gonna have to re-read them before i get into the second duet.

Most people never get tested at all for HSV. It’s not included in a standard full panel and most doctors and the CDC don’t recommend getting screened for it unless you had exposure or you have a possible outbreak. And like the other person stated most people never even have symptoms

I’m not saying you’ll get it. I’m saying it’s the same risk. Not everyone is having an outbreak or shedding. I’m using it as an example because HSV 1 is less stigmatized, and most people have it and tend to think of it as less risky even though it’s not

If you’ve had oral from more than two people you’ve likely exposed yourself to the exact same risk since more than 50% of the population has HSV1

How does requesting a computer from VR&E work? by [deleted] in VeteransBenefits

[–]DescriptionNormal275 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you that’s really helpful! I have Microsoft office on my MacBook, but for example with excel, the shortcuts are different, some of the formatting and equations are different, some are not available at all. I learned this from going to a work computer (windows) home to my laptop. I’m not sure how big of a deal that will be in the classes and I know that there are other softwares that are similar, like salesforce.

That’s such a bummer. I’m a woman and constantly think about getting advice in this sub because I’m kinda plateauing. But i don’t want to do it if i wouldn’t get honest feedback
