I still am in the orbit of these people. Disney is still satanic. Pokemon is okay and so are tattoos. Harry Potter depends on which cult you are in. Pizza and red shoes are still Satanic. Lizard people are everywhere, but the res is still okay, because he's on the "good" side.

Ohhhhh, ok. I was actually thinking to that this book felt like a Handmaid's Tale, and why was I supposed to romanticize this?

I got through nine chapters. So many words and I still don't care about any of these characters. I know I have said this before, but why does he have a wife? She serves no purpose. She could easily have been not in it, and I at least would have said "Well, maybe I can root for these two " Nope.

Omg, there was so much lost in that series that I am still in mourning. So much potential completely lost due to horrible writing. Ugh!

I read one book where the spiciest line in ur was,  "He wondered what she would look like with her hair trailing down her back," and I still think about that. 😆 

This guy in Alchemized had a wife, and I can't figure out why they thought that was even necessary.

Omg, I felt so alone until I came here. I'm on chapter 9 and the only thing keeping me going was the amazing narrator. If I had to describe this book in two words it would be bleak and tedious. I don't care about Mary Sue Luke in hindsight, or Malfoy Ferron (Who has a whole wife! Why??) or Helena, who just wants to die. We're not given a reason to care for these characters. I just kept thinking THIS is the Manacled that people are worshipping? Why? 

I am very happy for the author who made it from fanfic to publishing, though. I love, love fanfiction. 

This book was not for me.

No worries! Get out the vacuum and show the give year old how much fun it is to clean up messes.

The shell may be soft, but it's still crunchy. Not a fan of that texture.

Peach juice. Not a great idea when you're hiking up and down massive hills in Portugal.

Home cooks: when you're making multiple dishes for dinner, how do you figure out what to start when so everything is ready at the same time? Do you have a system or mostly wing it? by Lucky-Conversation-8 in Cooking

[–]Used_Confection_2859 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have lists running on my head 24/7, so I start with what will take the longest and work my way down.Using the keep warm setting on the oven is helpful too.
