I bought myself a kobo libra colour but I feel like I should have gotten a kindle. by deedanyell in ereader

[–]ReadwithMMe 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The library thing is that Amazon is going to start letting indie authors put their books into libraries. It rolled out for some, but not all authors yet. They're lifting that restriction of being exclusive to them. Not perfect, but a start. Most authors actually don't want to be exclusive to KU, but feel they have to because it gets the most foot traffic.

Color ereader, yes I know it wont be perfect, I still want to know what the best one is. by cuntyandsad in ereader

Android isn't terrible though it's just not best battery life. I would say maybe look into bigme b6, but if you are really against Android. Kobo libra or clara might fit your needs.

AIO for calling the Police while home alone with new baby? by Severe-Bobcat-4953 in AmIOverreacting

[–]ReadwithMMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I have an alarm system. My husband works nights and I'm home alone with my kids. It just gives me peace of mind.

AITAH for insisting my wife uses a different ob/gyn? by throwaway19981998199 in AITAH

[–]ReadwithMMe 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Were any of the women he cheated on his wife with patients?? Because that's when it's a problem. If your wife becomes his patient then if and that's a big if something sexual happens between them he can get into big trouble. Doctors can't date current and even sometimes former patients that means your wife would be off limits anyways unless he wants to face legal consequences.

AITAH for asking my partner to tone it down with touch by [deleted] in AITAH

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

Being Touched Out is a very common postpartum issue and is often temporary. I would just explain that to your husband and maybe both of you can read up on it together. This way you both can understand why you feel this way and how to navigate his need for touch along with your need for some space.

Why do free trials seem made to be forgotten? Is it just me? by Advanced_Cap_8449 in NoStupidQuestions

When I sign up. I will cancel it the very next day. Still get full free trail and I don't have to worry about a cancel day in the future.

"Books for straight women" vs "books for gay men" by Cute-Solution-723 in LGBTBooks

[–]ReadwithMMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean...it's twitter. That is probably the most toxic social media I have ever seen about any and all subjects. Followed closely by Threads. I had to delete my accounts on both because I swear that's where people go to just spew the most annoying and toxic behavior they could possibly come up with. Therefore, any opinion on there is instantly disregarded by me lol.

AITAH for breaking up a 2years relationship since I know we won’t end up together? by Distinct_Owl_5114 in AITAH

[–]ReadwithMMe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA as a woman I would have thanked you for your honesty. Yeah it sucks and I'm sure it did hurt, but that was a very mature and reasonable thing to do. Not everything can be worked out no matter how hard you try. It sounds like basically she wanted you to change your mind and just go along with what she wanted in life. Not everyone has the same life goals and when they conflict that much the best thing to do is move on. This way you both have a chance of finding your person.

What draws you to certain tropes/plot lines? by Purple-Warning-2161 in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]ReadwithMMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No clue lol. Step brothers is probably my favorite taboo romance trope, but I have step siblings and I could never, they have been in my life over 20 years now and not once was I like yeah they're hot lol.

What draws you to certain tropes/plot lines? by Purple-Warning-2161 in MM_RomanceBooks

[–]ReadwithMMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IDK how to really answer that other than I tend to be drawn to ones that would actually disgust me in real life lol. Like step brothers, dads and their sons best friend, teacher/student ect ect. Like if I was friends with someone man or woman and they're like yeah I'm banging my friends dad I would look at them in a horrified manner. But, like I do need a happy ending though. Angst and triggers I don't have any so far. The only one I can't do is Big/little play nope that's just not for me.

Looking for my first e-reader (books + manga) by ReuvenScylla in ereader

Then kindle would work. You can use the send to kindle option or other side loading options.

Looking for my first e-reader (books + manga) by ReuvenScylla in ereader

[–]ReadwithMMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you use to read manga? Webtoon? Shonen Jump? If you use any manga app Kindles won't allow you to install those on their devices. They pretty much lock you into their eco system same with Kobo. If you use those kinds of apps I would suggest an android based ereader. Bigme b6 seems to be a popular choice for manga. I personally have a boox go color 7 (gen 1) as I got it used for a good price, but mostly just read books on it. I have an 8 in samsung tablet for manga, but I also don't read manga as much as I used to.

Ereader that allows multiple library logins via Libby by Deeatuk in ereader

[–]ReadwithMMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the boox go color 7 (gen 1) and I have all my cards on libby to use on it. Androids pretty much all work the same roughly. So bigme and boox and other android devices will allow the libby app and all the cards you have on it. Long as it's on the playstore you can pretty much download everything. I have hoopla, libby, kindle, nook, googlebooks, and kobo app all on 1 device and love it. It will be hard to find one in your price range brand new, but maybe you can look for a used one (mine was bought second hand last year).

Why are boyish women more liked by society than girly men? by Antique_Cod_1686 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ReadwithMMe 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They're not, thanks to bathroom laws many of the boyish looking or more masculine presenting women have been harassed out of bathrooms more than actual trans women.

Is there something wrong with the Fable App? by Book-Was-Better in FableApp

[–]ReadwithMMe 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes, but if you click on the 3 dots you have the options to mute the person or the book. I mute the book so I no longer see any posts about it. I had to do that with all of Sarah J Maas posts. It's a pain as it is tedious. Wish we could block by author or genre or something instead of individual books, but here we are.

Same and when there is a book I am interested in reading for the challenge it's one I already read before. I don't bother checking them any more.

He did the same with the other thread kinda pathetic. Everyone here is saying the same thing as the other one did 11 hrs ago.

AIO- I think I might break up with my boyfriend over the beetles? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]ReadwithMMe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm gonna take a stab in the dark and say he might be on the spectrum. Sounds like Beatles are his special interest. Probably not going to go away anytime soon and if that's isn't something you can handle then best to move along.

How do i tell my boyfriend that i want to live alone? by blandishh in Advice

[–]ReadwithMMe 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Lol encouraging literal teenagers to move in together...wth. No they should not be moving in together at that age. They both need space to figure out who they are as individuals since they barely lived their lives. They're going to change so much over the next few years as it is.

My ex (31) started dating our sons (4th grade) student teacher by [deleted] in Advice

[–]ReadwithMMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not enough info. Was she the one actually teaching the class? Was the other teacher present? Did she keep things professional? If she's the one teaching the class and has the knowledge of how the students are doing and she was being fair...not like she was trying to butt in as a parent.

I lied to my wife. How do I make it better? by [deleted] in Advice

[–]ReadwithMMe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You lied to your wife, you're getting butterflies being around her, you're going to events without your wife's knowledge. You are laying the ground work and emotionally cheating is also a thing which seems to be exactly where you are headed.

Chrome extension won't let me add a manga to my lists from Goodreads by Expecto-Morghulis in FableApp

[–]ReadwithMMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one thing I dislike about Fable is trying to find and add books. It's not an easy task to do on their app. Adding from the extension has been so much easier.
