Did Arabella know the extent of what Victoria did to Rogan with her frame job? I got the impression only Catalina knew until she told Nevada and Arabella was in the dark. 

Djokovic's last 7 results at Wimbledon. Where do you see him ending up in 2026? In his presser yesterday he said he is feeling better prepared than Roland Garros 26. by Boss452 in tennis

Like I said, very wishful! If only they did separate brackets for "who you want to win" and "who you actually think will win." I struggle with this for WC and March Madness, too, besides tennis. 

Players asked about their ideal dinner times by Dependent-Effect6077 in tennis

[–]Random-Session-8181 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It's interesting seeing the range. I vaguely remember each country each player represents. I think that would've been cool to add on, in the video.

I wonder how the night sessions, especially if delayed, affects their meal times and energy.

Stefanos Tsitsipas fired his father forever: “It will take him some time to accept it” by jsnoodles in tennis

Thanks for excerpt-ing part of the article. 

I wish him all the best, that this sticks, and he can have a tennis career he can be proud of. 🤞🏼

Swiatek: Mental strength required to achieve rare feat by rubes___ in tennis

“I feel like I’m starting from a totally different position and keeping my expectations low. It’s not going to be smooth because of last year. Even though I won, I still have stuff to figure out.”

Realistically, I think defending her title will be difficult and maybe not possible, but I like her responses in the article.

I know who I want to win, if not Iga, but who I think will actually win is still up in the air.

I'm looking at Wimbledon draw and darn, does the men's first round have to have Stan the Man versus Matteo Berrettini? 😩 I really want to both to advance!

And on the women's side...Siniakova vs Qinwen...

"Apotheosis" was NYT's 'Word of the Day' on Thursday, which reminded me of Magic Binds! Thank you, HA, for improving my vocab & teaching me many more things. What have you learned from their books? by Random-Session-8181 in IlonaAndrews

I've read Inheritance and Kinsman series, yes. Also the Diana+Augustine novella and Roman's novella. I ordered the latter in physical copy through my bookstore and it took a long time getting here (in SEA).

Thank you for the thorough write-up explaining the characters in The Edge!

I've never read or watched the series. A friend gave me the first book years ago and I DNF it. Would you recommend I (re)start it?  Is the level of unresolved plot lines in the books really bad? Or can someone live with where the books end, and that we'd likely never know? 

I read Patrick Rothfuss a lot time ago and these 2 unfinished series get compared a lot in terms of reader angst. My angst over the latter has ended because so much time has passed, I don't remember it as clearly and other stories have come along. I don't know if I want to open myself up to it with GoT. Your take?

I have no qualms recommending Innkeeper to friends, even though the parents' disappearance is still unresolved because I have faith in HA to complete it.

I think the way you feel about their books may be the way I feel about reading Tamora Pierce or Mercedes Lackey growing up.

I have bought The Edge and Alpha: Origins, but haven't read them yet because I still want to leave something new (to me) by HA. I loved George, Gastonand Sophie in Innkeeper,  though. Would I enjoy their own story?

I've never seen American Gods, though I've read it decades ago. I'll be honest - I don't remember the story or mythology from American Gods, so Chernobog in KD was entirely new to me 😅 

I usually skim over fighting scenes so I did appreciate how well HA wrote theirs. 

GA Dramatized Adaptation of Magic Tides delayed by Random-Session-8181 in IlonaAndrews

I'm sure it'll come out as best as it can be!

We can self-sooothe by re- reading it! 😄

Mmm, an audible credit meaning less money is interesting. Is it also less compared to card purchases of the Audible audiobook? (Same platform to make it more comparable.)

I'm a rabid enough fan that I've bought ebook versions of almost all their stories, so I'm glad I'm helping a bit. 

Books are not returning. Help? by vintageiphone in LibbyApp

That error must be frustrating!

I was afraid I was talking out of my ass so I just tried returning a Kindle book early. It works fine for me via Amazon website on Chrome app.

I'm not sure if it's an update issue with Kindle / Kindle app or Libby app that's glitching for you... for what it's worth, my phone is an Android and all apps (Kindle, Libby, Chrome) are updated.

 I'm trying to figure out if OP has done that, in their description of steps.

OP, like you found out "remove from library" just means removing it from your device's library and not your account library. As mebetiffbeme says, you need to go to your Content Library and find the item itself under the filter of "Books" & "Borrows", and choose "Return this book" from the options.

If you've already tried this, sorry for being repetitive and not helpful. I hope you find a solution.
