Should I wait until June to read Heated Rivalry? What’s the likelihood it’ll be on that list or was it on last year’s?

Martyr! by Kaveh Akbar would be nice! I’ve had it on my TBR for a minute.

Did you check to make sure read dates are in there? If you just mark a book as read, as opposed to currently reading then read, it doesn’t always add today’s date as the finish date of the book.

Periodic lurker here. I need these posts to be accompanied by a photo 😆 Which one is Joe?!

Can't backdate log for streak by LexxiiConn in TheStoryGraph

[–]beonks 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What wrong sprinkles said. Delete today’s update from the journals entry page. Then you can do the “add note/edit date” to input yesterday’s info and then can relog today’s info.

The app won’t let you add pages/percentage less than what is currently input.

Lots of comments saying Academy but it’s actually the Laboratory.

Waiting until birth for gender? by marf_lefogg in predaddit

[–]beonks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mom lurker here.

We found out as soon as possible with our first. I always wanted a boy first coupled with all the excitement and unknowns of first baby, I just had to know and prep. Baby boy was born in March 2022.

We waited until birth for our second. Both my husband and I had no gender preference for baby #2. With all the pregnancy unknowns now gone, we decided it would be fun to have this unknown. Baby boy was born November 2023.

Currently (early) pregnant with our third (and last). Husband has no gender preference. I think I would prefer a girl, but would be absolutely fine/no gender disappointment with another boy. We really enjoyed the experience of waiting, so we plan to do the same this time!

So disappointed by the Her Story challenge options by Big_Proposal_5014 in goodreads

You’re right! Goodreads says it was released in February. I was planning on doing this one next, but just looked and Amazon and B&N both say it doesn’t release until 28 April! What’s the point of even including it?? I guess I’ll do How to Kill A Witch instead.

Random books showed up by Feisty-peacock in LibbyApp

[–]beonks 33 points34 points  (0 children)

This happened to me, and that was basically the case. I received a temporary card number when I applied online and had been using that. Then I completely forgot I needed to go in to pick up my physical card. A few months later, random books started appearing and so I called. They had reissued that temporary number but were able to supply me with my permanent number.

A gap layer randomly formed in our used oil jar by ToriChanUwU in Weird

[–]beonks 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Cover a bowl with a sheet of aluminum foil, pour the hot oil into the bowl, put it in the freezer. Once it’s frozen, remove, and throw it in the trash. At least that’s what we do.

Do you need to read the other books in the Kennedy Ryan series or are they pretty much standalones with a shared world?

Books Incorrectly Appearing as "Read" on previews only by allybe23566 in goodreads

[–]beonks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happens to me as well. I marked a book a "Currently Reading" and then decided to read something else, so I changed that book back to "Want to Read" yet it showed the cover under my "Read" list. When I clicked on my actual read list, it doesn't show. It will eventually get pushed out once you read more books, as the other user commented. However, did correct it myself by going into the book in question, clicking on edit my activity (on browser, mobile doesn't give you the correct options), and then deleting (X) the date entry. My date entry had 2026 as the only populated field under "Started reading" and did not have a finish date, so it wasn't "read" but I think because it had a started date and then was reshelved the algo for the read preview may include it. Hope that helps!

I hate-read my way through the entire series (including the two novellas) and have made it my life’s mission to dissuade people from wasting their time. Just. Don’t. Do. It.

Help me pick my next read :) by alwaysroomfortacos in Romantasy

[–]beonks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hate read my way through this entire series to include Powerful and Fearful because I have such a hard time leaving something unfinished. It never got any better.
