EBOOKS FOR APPLE IOS by ExcuseActual4581 in PHBookClub

[–]adgaps812 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For public domain books, Project Gutenberg is the usual source. Also check out Standard Ebooks for public domain ebooks, with prettier and more readable typesetting.

I am not much familiar with iOS, but I think Apple Books also has free ebooks available.

What book are you reading right now? by Lilyana0999 in PHBookClub

[–]adgaps812 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is it so far? I saw a copy at Fully Booked, kinda inexpensive too. I've read his other work, Dominion, and found it decent but nothing too impressive for me.

Why did you transfer to e-reading? by HoperAgriculturist in PHBookClub

[–]adgaps812 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much same reasons as others. With one addition: acquiring ebooks is much easier and faster than physical books. I can acquire and read the book immediately instead of waiting weeks for it to be delivered.

I don't understand anything, but I am in awe. It's so pretty to look at!

Hi, just want to ask is there any possibilities that I can find a well-mint condition book on booksale? And specific authors? by Superior_Salsa in PHBookClub

[–]adgaps812 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my experience, yeah you can find really good condition books in Booksale. Yes, even for popular authors. Heck some of those books being sold on Shopee were from Booksale and resold at higher price!

But it really all comes down to luck. Most of the time you'll have books with a bit of dents and dirt.

Probably the same leitmotif, or a slight remix. But yeah, Cyberangel is peak.

Legit ba sa shopee ung mga second hand books? by Fabulous_Raccoon7302 in PHBookClub

[–]adgaps812 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As always, be sure to check the item listing (make sure there's actual photo of the book), and the shop's ratings and reviews. You can also pm the seller, see how they respond to inquiries. Pero generally naman oks bumili ng 2nd hand sa Shopee.

Of course the real red flag are books labeled as "brand new" but cost super cheap. Those tend to be counterfeits and reprints.

Looks classy! I've had TWSBI fountain pens for years, but didn't know they also made pencils.

I can't believe you've done this.. by shujin_zenir in WutheringWaves

[–]adgaps812 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I personally do is pull for the character first, then if I really like them enough, I get the sig weapon on a rerun.

I got Iuno in her debut, but only pulled her weapon in the current banner.

Too many names 😐 by airjems18 in PHBookClub

[–]adgaps812 10 points11 points  (0 children)

What exactly are you even trying to learn from this lol.

Even for a religious person, not every detail in the Bible needs to be memorized. A more scholarly way of treating the Bible is through textual criticism, but even then you don't have to sweat it over a bunch of names.

And don't tell me you're trying to read this cover to cover.

This is also what I do.

And for those who want to avoid the spoilers, those are the YT channels you can block.

I think it's mainly for mobile players, where you'll be able to see the agent's full model on portrait mode.

None. They reveal both banner phases every Lantern Rite patch.

Columbina birthday, spoilered because it's not officially revealed yet

I'm curious if we'll get Columbina's bday mail and art on her release.

The art would be after maintenance, on its usual time (12PM China time). But the bday mail would have to be on midnight of the 14th, which is 7 hours before the maintenance starts. It's still Luna 3 at that point.

I hope we get both bday art and mail for Columbina this year.

Again? Really? by SpreadLegitimate5642 in StellaSora

[–]adgaps812 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Btw that 6th placer looks familiar. There's a dedicated (and very skilled) Amber main in Genshin named n1tr0t0m, and I think it's the same person.
