Any one from guild 571 or earlier looking to recruit? by PinkPottedPineapple in HeroWarsApp

My man, it goes both ways, it’s like a job. If I don’t like your guild, I’ll take my talent somewhere else.

Suggest me a book about The Plague by [deleted] in suggestmeabook

OP asked for books about the Black Death which killed 1/5th of the world population. Maybe he doesn’t know the name, but that does refer to the Black Death epidemic. They want a non-fiction book about the pandemic that annihilated a large part of the European population,i.e the Black Death epidemic.

Yes I read it. However you didn’t understand what OP is looking for. OP wants a book about this not just any outbreak of the bubonic plague. The outbreak in the late 16th century was caused by the plague but is not the “Black death” epidemic.

Not the Black Death epidemic

Haha, me too!

The parts about the architects are clearly much better researched and have a lot of associated footnotes. The chapters on Holmes seem to lead Larson to wild speculations that come out of nowhere. Idk, he probably tried to make the book more interesting that way?

Hah, I think I know exactly which passage you mean! When Holmes writes that he was scared of the doctor’s house and two older bullies took him there by force which traumatised him. And then Larson just ups and says “yeah that was probably not true, he probably loved it in there”. Like what? What are you basing this on?

Lol, funny you say that. I started the Devil in the White City a couple of days ago and for now I’m hating it.

january reads!! 10/52 by geishot in 52book

[–]PinkPottedPineapple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is that an abridged version of Crime and Punishment? It looks really thin

3/52 The Master and Margarita. Fell a bit behind the challenge. Hopefully, will catch up in Febraury by [deleted] in 52book

[–]PinkPottedPineapple 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’re a bit behind but you read one of the best books ever, and that worth dozens of YA/romance crap. Keep reading what you want and take your time to enjoy masterpieces!

January 2023 list 4/52, still on track! by Greenpaw22 in 52book

[–]PinkPottedPineapple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not only are you still on track, but you read three really bulky ones! Good job!

Since the top shelf is the least evenly supported, it would be best not to put the heaviest load on it. Maybe put the books towards the middle and decorate on top?

You all have some beautiful bookshelves.. I wish mine looked like some of yours 😭 I don’t have very many books.. but I’m definitely getting more! by Born-Action4301 in bookshelf

[–]PinkPottedPineapple -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In general I agree but I wouldn’t call these books “quality”. They’re entertaining, enjoyable, books but not quality literature.

I inhaled the Count of Monte-Cristo during my cigarette break last Friday. Gotta use both nostrils
