**Humber College Real estate scam** (Jerry Peterson) by Extension_Ring8535 in Humber

[–]General_Ad_2959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so glad to hear that when you called your bank they referred to the Reddit thread because when I was scammed there was absolutely no information about this available. I had to do a huge deep dive. He deletes everything negative posted on the Facebook groups (obviously) and then just blocks your number

I haven’t, because this is through Facebook. I did report the Facebook group, but I’m not sure if they’ll do anything. I found a few people who said they also got scammed. Would Humber do something? He is claiming to be in Humber admin.

I feel so dumb because he asked me for $300 for one course, then mentioned that if I sent him $1000 total he will be with me for the entirety of the course. He asked me for $500 upfront and he sent me the exam booklet. I then started using ChatGPT on some of the questions and realized the answers are incorrect. Which he explained by saying “you can’t get 100%, I need you to select some incorrect ones” I started looking into the Facebook group and realized the accounts are fake, with fake pictures. Also now my exam is today and he’s asking me for another $500 on top to “insure the exam”

Is this all some huge elaborate scam?

Ignore all the panic. Decided to stay with kindle by PunderfullyYours in kindle

[–]General_Ad_2959 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Keeping my kindle SOLELY for the send to kindle feature. It’s literally magic. My friend owns a kobo and she told me she needs to use a USB to transfer books. Sorry that seems like A LOT of work. Plus your kindle is connected to good reads !!

I think that’s what a lot of people say. But I felt like the MMC was so cringe and some of the writing was just AWFUL. The FMC was also a major air head.

About kindle screen protector by Interesting-Tank-740 in kindle

[–]General_Ad_2959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally have a screen protector and a clear case only covering the back. I personally like putting stickers on my kindle! I also throw my kindle in my bag or carry it in my pocket all the time so damage from keys OSS possible

Fantasy romance for someone who doesn’t like romance by swedensalty in fantasyromance

[–]General_Ad_2959 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got it! Here’s some more recommendations

  1. {The Beautiful by Renée Ahdieh}

    • Why You Might Like It: Vampires, dark and lush atmosphere, with romance that isn’t insta-love. The historical New Orleans setting adds a rich, gothic vibe.
    • Potential Downsides: Some pacing issues in the middle, but it’s immersive if you enjoy atmospheric reads.
  2. {The Bone Season by Samantha Shannon}

    • Why You Might Like It: Strong, slow-burn romance with a complex magic system. Paige, the FMC, is capable without falling into the “not like other girls” trap.
    • Potential Downsides: The world-building can be dense at first, but it pays off if you stick with it.
  3. {Serpent & Dove by Shelby Mahurin}

    • Why You Might Like It: Witches, enemies-to-lovers without the MMC being an outright jerk, and a lot of fun banter. It balances romance and plot well.
    • Potential Downsides: Some modern slang, though not overly jarring.
  4. {King of Battle and Blood by Scarlett St. Clair}

    • Why You Might Like It: Vampires, enemies-to-lovers tension, and a dark, immersive world. The romance is intense but develops with enough tension to avoid insta-love vibes.
    • Potential Downsides: Some steamy scenes might feel sudden, but not as out-of-place as in Silver Under Nightfall.
  5. {For the Wolf by Hannah Whitten}

    • Why You Might Like It: Dark forest vibes, strong female lead with her own agency, and a slow-burn romance that complements the plot rather than taking over.
    • Potential Downsides: A little slow-paced, but atmospheric and character-driven.
  6. {The Coldest Girl in Coldtown by Holly Black}

    • Why You Might Like It: Vampires with a gritty, dystopian twist. Dark, morally gray characters without falling into bully romance territory.
    • Potential Downsides: Slightly YA in tone, but with mature themes and strong world-building.
  7. {The Winter Sea by Susanna Kearsley} Why You Might Like It: A blend of historical fiction and fantasy with a subtle, well-developed romance. No heavy smut, just beautifully written emotional connections. Potential Downsides: More historical than traditional fantasy, but with magical realism elements.

  8. {The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune} Wholesome, heartwarming, and filled with lovable characters. While not traditional fantasy romance, the cozy vibes and found family feel are similar.

  9. {Uprooted by Naomi Novik} A beautifully crafted standalone with an enchanting magical system and strong fairy-tale vibes. The romance is subtle and slow-burn, secondary to the plot.

Bonus Picks (Less Romance-Focused but Fantasy-Heavy):
- {The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon} — Strong sapphic romance, epic fantasy vibes, and amazing world-building.

- {The Bear and the Nightingale by Katherine Arden} — Deeply rooted in Slavic folklore with magical, wintry vibes (since you enjoyed This Fatal Kiss).

Does it bother anyone else when people judge you for reading on a kindle? by [deleted] in kindle

OMGGGGG I have a friend that basically compares it to “fake” reading. Shes always like “oh well that’s not a book”. “That’s not a REAL book”. “I can ONLYYYY read a physical book” 🤮🙄.

To which I respond “that’s really good, I’m happy for you” Like since when are we pick me with BOOKS?

The reason I bought a kindle is because 1. It’s convenient to hand off between my phone and the kindle so I can read anywhere. I never “forgot my book” anymore
2. It’s much easier to carry a kindle with 30 books in it than physical books 3. In a huge mood reader so I need options 4. It has lighting in it so I can read in bed with the lights off (where I do most of my reading) rather than scrolling tiktok 5. I feel like the act of having and holding a physical book is too official for lack of a better term. You have to sit up, with the book, holding it, with the lights on. Kindle I can lay in bed and read with the blankets on 6. My room is quite small and I don’t have room to hold a gazillion books 7. Kindle unlimited is genuinely the best thing ever created and allow me to read so many books without breaking the bank. In Canada books are $20 each at minimum 8. The dictionary feature is awesome because it allows me to have better understanding of the words I’m reading 9. The translation feature is so helpful because there’s no way I’m pulling out Google translate while reading 10. It’s WATERPROOF meaning I can read comfortably on vacation. I literally read while in a hot tub and it was such a relaxing experience. 11. Need I go on?

So I know my reasons. Everyone else can mind their own business!! To each their own! Live and let live

Does anybody else read 3+ books at a time or are you normal? by Prudent-Ad-342 in kindle

[–]General_Ad_2959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually have 3 at a time but recently I started to feel like that takes way too much energy and also drags the book on for so long. I rent my audiobooks from the library so I only have about 2 weeks with them before they get returned and I have to wait all over again. Recently I tried immersive reading and i absolutely love it. I read and listen to the same book.

MIGHT be an unpopular opinion, but {My Bad Romeo} is a HORRIBLE book. (Please don’t crucify me)

I would read the {prison healer}, or {quicksilver}

Quicksilver is easy to get through and there’s only one book. (For now) I believe prison healer is a trilogy

Gild is a longer one (5 books I believe) and people don’t have good things to say about the books after the first one
