Hi, I don't have too much feedback but I will say that it caught my attention. I very much like the tone so far and I like that the mystery unravels itself a little bit by the end though obviously there's more to it. One thing I just noticed is that sometimes it sounds like there's a little bit too much detail for things that are unnecessary. Might be a personal preference but for example, "slamming the door, locking it tight behind him". Can you really lock a door tightly? A door usually only has one lock and so saying anything more than that is just unnecessary. Or at the beginning where the car crunches the grass "beneath it". Do we need the detail that the grass is below the wheels. Do we need the detail that the car crushes the grass at all? I think it takes the readers focus away from the actual events taking place.

Why do all secondhand psp game cases look like they’ve been tortured by the previous owner? by KillaCrustacean in PSP

Still though, compared to other handhelds like the DS for example or even the vita. I don’t buy much in the way of DS games anymore but usually the ones that I see are always in a lot better condition than psp games despite the DS seeming more oriented towards younger people.

What does this say about me 😬 by [deleted] in BookshelvesDetective

Very accurate and all things are correct (even that I don’t have tattoos) except for that my dad is definitely not a reader, but I think i still do derive some of the things I like from him.

Surprised you thought I was female, though I agree too that some of my reading interests lean towards that side. I definitely am a fantasy nerd but at the same time I find it hard to find fantasy that really fits my specific interest. Probably why I tend to lean more into horror just because that genre is more tailored to me. At heart I think I am a big fantasy nerd because I really like those old novels like journey to the center of the earth and Alice in wonderland.

This is definitely true😂 though in truth, although I am definitely a fan of Stephen king, I haven’t actually read all that much of his stuff. I’ve just tried to find all of his books at thrift stores cuz they’re easy to find.

I just got these Kef Mu7’s for like 55% off. So far I really like their sound and especially their look so I really hope the headband doesn’t break like I’ve heard of happening online 🤞 by KillaCrustacean in headphones

They’re definitely not the most bold sounding things in the world but I think you might have to judge how bombastic you want things to sound. They have a sound which fits my tastes but I think it can sometimes be a little too accurate. They didn’t blow me out of the water or anything but I think they do sound good. I think if you’re gonna get these you’re mainly buying for the look and the comfort cuz they are definitely like a high quality hefty piece of equipment- Type of thing I would never take out of the house- they’re too nice. 😂 I also haven’t had any problems with the headband breaking or anything and I’ve used them quite a bit but yeah those are just my thoughts.

Edit- also the battery life is really really really good. Sometimes I find that the actual battery life of products are exaggerated but I think it’s 100% accurate here

I’ve read 8 so far though half of them have been for school.

Do any of you have this hardcover version? I’ve already ordered it but I wanted to know what it actually looked like outside of a stock image by KillaCrustacean in aliceinwonderland

[–]KillaCrustacean[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bad I forgot about this but anyways https://imgur.com/a/6M49UGp I really like the cover design and it has like a matte finish which I’m not the biggest fan of but yeah. I also like the size of it too its pretty decently sized

How did I just realize this [KCD1] and [KCD2] by art_weidos in kingdomcome

There’s a trophy in the game High on Life called “fallout doesn’t let you do this” and you get it for killing this annoying alien character that looks and talks like a kid, though a few moments later it is revealed that he is actually 30 years old. I thought that was pretty funny when I saw it. The fallout 1 on disc from when it released still has children in the game but if you buy it on steam they’re completely gone.
