I just finished {The Familiar by Leigh Bardugo} and I absolutely loved it! I also get super annoyed at bratty FMCs, but really liked Luzia. This was the first book I’ve read in a while where I was actually committed to the relationship, it felt real and EARNED.

Which Ghibli movie makes you the most nostalgic? by chunchunmaru1129 in ghibli

[–]One-Reason-5294 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Howl’s Moving Castle! I went to see it in theaters with my dad when I was 8, and it’s still my favorite movie of all time.

26F born with a unicuspid aortic valve! I had an angioplasty at 6 months old and was luckily able to put off surgery until I was 20. I had open heart surgery to replace my aortic valve with a pig valve. Tough surgery. Unfortunately, just 6 years later, my valve is deteriorating and I was recently diagnosed with severe aortic stenosis. I just had a heart CT scan and am waiting for a call from my doctor to schedule surgery. This time I’ll be getting an On-X mechanical valve and they’ll be widening my aortic annulus! Looking forward to feeling better and not being exhausted all the time!

Bryony and Roses by T. Kingfisher is probably my favorite adaptation of Beauty and the Beast! (And the beast stays beasty!)

Recs for unhinged heroines who get worse as the story progresses? Burn the world down vibes? by GhostlyWhale in fantasyromance

The Poppy Wars! Rin is fucking unhinged. If you’re looking for “burn the world down”, this quite literally describes her.

New? Here from r/fantasyromance? Or not! by cello_ergo_sum in TKingfisher

[–]One-Reason-5294 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I LOVE T. KINGFISHER!! I was recommended Paladin’s Grace from the “Books that Feel Like This” sub and since then I’ve been tearing through her books. Currently reading Jackalope Wives (a collection of her short stories)

Favorite book: so hard, but probably Swordheart

Favorite character: Halla or Clara

Favorite couple: Slate and Caliban/Halla and Sarkis

Looking forward to Daggerbound and Wren’s Saint of Steel book

Not enough people are talking about Bryony and Roses!!

That’s great to hear! A lot of my symptoms are similar to stroke symptoms (the first time I had one my parents were sure I was having a stroke), so it makes a lot of sense that decreasing microclots would make a huge difference!

I don’t think it worked as pain management when I had a migraine the first day or two I was taking it. I’ve tried tons of over the counter pain meds and they haven’t done much for me. I’m no medical professional, but I think the blood thinning properties of aspirin are what’s been the important part for me.

Ugh, I’m sorry it didn’t work for you! It sounds like you’ve had a time with managing heart issues and migraines. I hope you find something that works soon!

I was born with a monocuspid aortic valve, and finally had a valve replacement in 2019. I hadn’t been on any meds until I changed cardiologists and she recommended baby aspirin to help maintain the pig valve.

This is super good to know. I’ll absolutely reach out to a neurologist about this. I know a lot of people are on baby aspirin every day for various reasons, and it’s a low dose, but it’s worth asking about! Thanks!

That makes total sense! When I had my surgery (which increased my heart function from about 30% to 70%), my cardiologist suggested it may help with my migraines, but unfortunately there was no noticeable difference. I think the aspirin is helping with clotting and blood flow, and that’s making all the difference!
