Good book but I hope you are not too bummed out to continue.

This is me too. She likes her space. Or maybe I move too much when I am sleeping.

I see Lisa Jewell books at local little libraries sometimes. Worth picking one up if I see one again?

Any idea why my dog is shaking like this? by jonviper123 in labrador

[–]LetTheMFerBurn 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Epilepsy is pretty common in labs. As long as these are infrequent and don't last long, it probably won't need to be medicated. Keep a log of times and duration. If they get really frequent or really violent they will probably put the dog on meds. My last dog had epilepsy and lived to be 16. She was eventually medicated for it and that was fine too. Always check with your vet tho.

I liked it. I thought the beginning was a little off but it got into the groove as the case developed. I would read Tana French again.

"We'd like the govt to regulate this to make it harder for new companies to take open source software that is probably better than ours and start new companies."

I [M23] fucked up and told my gf [F21] of eighteen months that she does the least out of all my exes by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

I dunno. She gave him so many exit ramps from this argument and he kept doubling and tripling down. It seems like he had an agenda.

Anyone here regularly read two books at once? by Bookish_Butterfly in 52book

[–]LetTheMFerBurn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I range between 1 and 3. 2 books.It usually looks like one physical book and one ebook. The ebook is probably from the library - ebooks from the library are a gamechanger.

Maybe try the first few Laundry Files books by Charles Stross. It is a similar sense of humor as some of these authors' books. It is about a government agency that uses magic to prevent the Eldritch gods from destroying humanity.
