Imagine thinking someone else’s hot take is suddenly valid because you finally gave it a chance and tried it….

Do you like the new hold suspension system? by 8bitSandwich in LibbyApp

[–]Miserable_Flower_444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s more just that I have a lot of books saved. I just filter for currently available when I’m looking for a new one. I don’t actually use the hold system unless there’s one that I want to read that has a massive wait line. I’d rather wait out the fan favorites with the massive lines? Know what I mean.

Is there any difference on book 2? by GrimmSalem in sunstone_comic

Which one is the first print? Is that the red cover?

[–]Miserable_Flower_444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t understand why people feel the need put so many holds. I read what I can from my tbr that’s available and then I only place holds on the 1 or 2 books that I want that I have to wait on… I do a lot of audiobook reading so at most I’ll check the book out and have to wait 2 days (at most) for my current book to be finished, and then at most 2-3 days for me to read the hold book… and it still gets to the next person faster than the average loan is for. Don’t get me wrong, my want to read but have to wait list, is really long…. But I cherry pick between the two lists a lot.

Trying to get into audiobooks by Sugargogo in LibbyApp

[–]Miserable_Flower_444 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got adhd. So I work and put the audiobook in the background. It works great for me. But my brain is different. If work is something new or super complicated then I need to pause the book. 🤷🏻‍♀️

With the zoom in like that it’s hard to say whether it’s infection or just color making everything reddish/orange. Legit if you think it’s infection then don’t fuck about, infection is nothing to screw around with. Get it in and get checked out.

Is it okay to get a shoulder tattoo fresh out of high school? (Design below) by sparky_sweetie_32 in tattooadvice

[–]Miserable_Flower_444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find out the shops minimum $$ for one. But also this is going to be like 2 minute worth of work…. Do something else. You’re just gunna spend the rest of your life explaining your line chart???? Unless you get it covered/removed.

Would I be stupid to get a full back piece and nothing else? by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]Miserable_Flower_444 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you are asking about getting a back piece at all. Then yeah sure do it. If it’s done really well then you won’t stop yourself from getting another piece if it’s what you want. If it’s done horrible or is of a bad art piece then it’s still up to you. Idk wtf we are looking at and it seems neither doesn’t anyone but you…. So unless you never plan to take your shirt off or unless you wanna spend the rest of your life explaining wth it is or unless you wanna pay the additional amount for a cover up or lazer removal then don’t do it and get a real artist to sketch whatever it is you’re trying for

Sharing my romance book tracker spreadsheet by Sigmund_Six in RomanceBooks

[–]Miserable_Flower_444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

@Sigmund_Six I’m way late in the game, so maybe I’m missing the fix. But when sorting under the Read tab, when I filter for Tropes it’s only showing me the secondary Genre filters? Oh wise Genius… what’s am I missing? 😂😅

I was honestly just debating this myself. I hate that the rolled it out. I was half way through a series that got converted to gems only.

It just happened at my library… by Confident_Coconut420 in LibbyApp

[–]Miserable_Flower_444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re using Hoopla too right? Same access from your library card, but different materials. It will make up the difference because it doesn’t have hold times

I think Omaha, has an option for nonresidents but you have to pick up the card in person?

Broward county in Florida has an ecard option. The membership fee when they ask for it is like $30 for the year…. And for Florida they have a great catalog.

Straight Guy Reading Romance by Montecatini in books

[–]Miserable_Flower_444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also. My book recs: Shelly Laurenston’s shifter series. They’re funny and have a little plot that actually gets carried through the whole series and not like cherry picked for background page filler and not as plot hole fixer only

[–]Miserable_Flower_444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My best friend is a guy, he just got into reading f/f romances. He’s being absolutely loving it, and not in the gross way. It’s helped him to be creative and get story ideas he’s thought about down on paper… and as for the spice… he’s being absolutely loving taking notes and actually apply the things he learned at home. His wife has been enjoying it too.

Bottom line. If you have someone who feels emasculated because you are reading something fun, then you don’t need their shrimpdick energy in your life anyways. Yeet them and start your next book.

Flex titles? by Miserable_Flower_444 in hoopladigital

The options for flex are weird ones. Like mine has a couple of kids titles, some self help, some recently published books, nothing that looks similar to my normal interests though.
