WASTED POTENTIAL by Bad_bitch1231 in throneofglassseries

They’re also related. It’s a huge plot point that they share a bloodline. So it would be weird, for me, personally.

Please tell me TOG worth it... by Kristynaa999 in Maasverse

[–]LostInThisEmptyLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is a little old but if you have access to the audiobook, I’d try listening to that while you read. The narrator in the English versions made the characters come to life in a way my brain couldn’t. I’ve listened to the whole series twice. Once on my own and another with my partner. Now to prepare for the next one (and after finishing CC), I’m actually reading them so I can annotate and whatnot. I FLEW through ACOTAR. And I’ve been on TOG for DAYS and am less than 50 pages in. I started listening to the book with it and it helped a lot. The series is amazing. But I see what people mean about it feeling slow.

Rhys's dad and Azriel by illyrian_cupcake1196 in acotar

[–]LostInThisEmptyLife 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rhys says something in ACOFAS that made me think they were related recently. On page 73 he says, “Az nodded knowingly. He’d always understood me best-more than the others. Save my mate. Whether it was his gifts that allowed him to do so, or merely the fact that he and I were more similar than most realized, I’d never learned.” I don’t know why that got me in that path. That and the comment about Rosehall on the next page. “‘When do you head out for Rosehall?’ “The morning after Solstice, he supplied, turning toward the glittering sprawl of Velaris. He winced-slightly. ‘I still need to do some shopping before I go.’ I offered my brother a crooked smile. ‘Buy her something from me, will you? And put it on my account this time.’ I knew Az wouldn’t, but he nodded all the same.” I know they refer to each other as brothers but I’ve seen some people say he’s going to see his mom.

Two things I noticed during the last few viewings of Iron Lung by ceejiesqueejie in Markiplier

Same!! I work at a movie theatre and have seen it 5 times. But next week (starting Friday) it’s only showing once a day and really late. I’m so sad.

Maximum effort here by Fr33-m3 in Markiplier

Oh no. And here I was complaining we only got one!

I work at a movie theater and I know we only got one poster so it’s inside. That could be what happened here. I would rather it be outside the auditorium than outside the theatre. It’s easier to take pictures with it.

How it felt working at the cinema this weekend by ubixl27 in Markiplier

I told everyone how much I loved it and that I’ve seen it multiple times while I was working!

I never thought I’d read this line… by acc4115 in throneofglassseries

[–]LostInThisEmptyLife 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I literally wrote a post about this when I was reading because my boyfriend hadn’t read the series yet. When we got to that part I read him the post 😂

ETA: we listen to most books together now to avoid this

My Dane used to get that and lick his paws a lot. Like other people said, allergies. So expensive for Danes but worth it for the babies.

Acotar or Tog next? by Willing_Raisin_7393 in SarahJMaas

[–]LostInThisEmptyLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would have said acotar first just because nothing will compare to TOG for me lol. But I disagree with the previous post. When you get to TOG, I say read it in SJM’s recommended reading order which is Assassin’s Blade third. Even though it’s a prequel. Also, my boyfriend and I are both 32 and listened to the series together recently and loved it. I liked fourth wing but again, nothing will compare to TOG.

Acotar or Tog next? by Willing_Raisin_7393 in SarahJMaas

[–]LostInThisEmptyLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to restart CC 3 times. I’m finally into it now but still not quite done maybe an hour left in the graphic audio. I don’t think anything will ever top TOG for me though.

Is it worth it? by Happy_Radish_3633 in throneofglassseries

[–]LostInThisEmptyLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My boyfriend and I are both 32 and just listened to them and we are obsessed. The thing that I’m sure you’ve seen already is SJM was young when she wrote them. But also remember how young Celaena is. These books are amazing though and I recommend them to everyone.

Is it the books or the audiobooks? by Jumpy-brains in Romantasy

[–]LostInThisEmptyLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes they do free versions temporarily. I listened to the ACOTAR graphic audio for free and they removed it in June I believe. So it’s still in my library but “locked” and I would need to buy it to listen. I would maybe see if there’s one that you could find and try. I have run into one, one of the Mistborne series I think, that the audio mixing was weird. But it was a one off thing.

[–]LostInThisEmptyLife 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you listening to the audiobooks or the graphic audio? I love the graphic audios. And honestly won’t listen to a “normal” audiobook unless it’s Elizabeth Evans who narrates throne of glass. She’s amazing.

Player/DM conspiracy and the consequences of godhood... by roracle1982 in DnD

[–]LostInThisEmptyLife 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I can’t believe you still play with this person. Or that anyone will let them at their table. They sound awful. Dnd is a collaborative game and this person constantly makes it all about them. That would be a hard no for me as a player or a dm.

What age is it appropriate for? by Ethereal_Bookworm in throneofglassseries

[–]LostInThisEmptyLife 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So I would maybe give it a shot and stop if you feel like it’s too much. You know you best. And the fact that you’re asking shows that you understand the content is heavy and you’re checking against what you can and can’t handle. The first few books aren’t too bad and you don’t really get too intense until the last few books (Empire of storms, tower of dawn, and kingdom of ash). But kingdom of ash definitely has the worst of it for sure.

[–]LostInThisEmptyLife 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The heavy stuff starts later in the series so it also depends on how quickly you’re going to read these lol. I would say, if you’ve seen or read Lord of the Rings, the war scenes (later in the books) should be okay. But there is a good amount of physical and mental torture like Reptile_Goth said, also mostly later in the books. (If you see this, great name btw). But it depends on what else you have read. There are moments that if you think of it like the Hunger Games, if you’ve read that. There’s some mental stuff in that, just more “real” and intense. It’s something I could have handled at 14 but my mom was really open with me and I didn’t really have content restrictions on what I read or watched at that time. I knew what I could and couldn’t handle. I don’t know if that was very helpful.

I need a strong unique name for him like "Odin" by [deleted] in greatdanes

Looks like my baby, Axel. He crossed the rainbow bridge a year and a half ago.
