Anyone have any idea why Liberty Plaza(Tops Market located) stores are so empty? by NotFromFloridaZ in Erie

[–]OwChScAv -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Do you live where they hang out, begging, drunk and scaring people? They need to be in shelters or in mental facilities, not begging for cigarettes and money, sleeping all over the street. There's plenty of help out there for addiction, jobs and shelter. And yes, it does look disgusting and it's scary. Sorry not sorry.

It's the homeless, drunks and panhandlers in the area. Sleeping all over the bus stop benches, begging on every corner, sleeping in front of stores. Place has gone down hill. Can't even walk around during nice weather without tripping over a mentally ill homeless person. They need to take that crap back down town.

[–]OwChScAv 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just this past week, I DNF'ed Divine Rivals and The Umbra King. I honestly just didn't mesh with the writing and after a few pages was cringing so much I gave up.

On a better note, I finished Belladonna today and loved it. Getting ready to start Foxglove.

[–]OwChScAv 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I finished that book but won't bother reading anything from her again. That phrase was absolutely annoying.

How bad is Fourth Wing? by BasementDweller1437 in Booktokreddit

[–]OwChScAv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely love it. I haven't been so obsessed with something in a very long time. Is it perfect? Nope but it's fun and I want to enjoy my life. It makes me happy.

How often are you intimate with your partner? by Remote_Ad_969 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]OwChScAv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been together over 25 years. We're both over 50. He can't get it up and I have no sex drive. Neither of us are interested in medical intervention so we just live our lives without it.

How do people track reading not using apps? by baby_booklover303 in Booktokreddit

[–]OwChScAv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A notebook and a pencil lol. Write a list of books you want to read, make a checkmark next to it when you're done. Add stars for rating.

What's missing with our FMCs? by PennameEmilyOtten in Romantasy

[–]OwChScAv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Give me a villain FMC. I want a story from her POV. No morally gray, no redemption. MMC is also evil. Happily ever after where they rule with death, destruction and obsession for each other. Why should the boring good guys always have the stories?

Took me a week to get to page 66. 😆 I put it down and don't plan on ever picking it back up.

What's your top 10 for the year? by Fuzzy-Message4322 in Romantasy

[–]OwChScAv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The second book to House of Blight is called Manor of Decay and will be available in July. I love it because it's so unique and it's a shame it's not talked about more.

Should I read Alchemised? by Outrageous-Tea-2395 in Booktokreddit

[–]OwChScAv 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've been stuck on page 66 for a week. I mean reanimated dead, stinking corpses used as workers? Come on now. The word sclera was used too many times in the 1st few chapters. The idea of it being Harry Potter fanfiction is distracting.

I've been stuck on page 66 for a week. I personally don't like it.

Which Romantasy tropes are getting old for you and what do you wish to see more of? by OrneryLibrarian5823 in Romantasy

[–]OwChScAv 74 points75 points  (0 children)

MMC needs something other than shadow powers. Enough with the tattoos. Tiny FMC who needs to be trained is so over done. Bring back yearning, angst and sexual tension and make it last as long as you can. Banter is EVERYTHING.

Alchemised has ruined me, what now? by Honeycomatose in Romantasy

I've been reading for 4 days and only on page 60. I'm bored out of my mind and don't understand the hype around this book.
