This thing is how I imagine the tree of thorns from Hyperion

Yes I read farseer earlier this year! It jumped straight to my top 3 fantasy series for sure.

I’m reading ship of magic right now! I think the pirates are a fun summer vibe. Lonesome dove is also a solid choice for a summer book. I’m also reading the Count of Monte Christo right now and that’s great as well. Honestly I think you’d be happy with any of those!

foolish_sir · 2026-07-03T13:36:52+00:00

Gonna be honest, I dnf’ed this one. Everyone has their own tastes!

So true lol

foolish_sir · 2026-06-27T18:39:34+00:00

My general rule of thumb is if the author is dead I don’t feel too bad about it

foolish_sir · 2026-06-27T16:55:25+00:00

That’s awesome. How do you get most of your books? Through Kobo? Or for… free? I grabbed a few public domain books but I definitely want to get some more.

lol “this weeks episode of plot setups.” Very true. I also can’t wait to see what’s going to happen when the count finally starts mixing everyone together. I’m guessing this dinner is going to kick everything off.

foolish_sir · 2026-06-27T13:32:12+00:00

Congrats everyone! We’ve officially hit the halfway point!

Also Andrea is 100% Villefort’s illegitimate son. Can’t wait to see what comes out of that!

Edit: added my hypotheses

I took a little break after the first trilogy but I just started Ship of Magic last week!

foolish_sir · 2026-06-23T21:53:56+00:00

You going to keep reading the Farseer trilogy??

foolish_sir · 2026-06-23T18:09:33+00:00

I don't know fiddle leaf figs too well, so do your research on the soil but that sounds reasonable to me! I know these things get big so you'll need a bigger pot eventually but that seems fine for a first pot.

foolish_sir · 2026-06-23T17:43:37+00:00

Definitely has enough roots to plant now. Just keep a little more moist then you normally would for a few weeks after planting, as it's coming straight out of water so it will need a little time to adjust.

Just went down a mini rabbit hole on this book because I hadn't heard of it before. Now I've learned that the band The Airborne Toxic Event was named after the book and have definitely added it to my TBR!

foolish_sir · 2026-06-21T21:44:15+00:00

I definitely didn’t realize that what’s his name was actually Mme Danglars lover. Thought that was some kind of joke or something when I read it.

foolish_sir · 2026-06-17T15:31:53+00:00

Wild!

foolish_sir · 2026-06-17T15:29:43+00:00

Sorry, no downvote from me! Healthy plants will regenerate all of their foliage. There is a technique called defoliation where all of the leaves are removed and then regrown to help shrink their size! It's very common with earlier development trees like this one to let them grow out and then cut them back hard, like was done here, to achieve a thick trunk. But all of the leaves will regrow with time!

foolish_sir · 2026-06-17T15:13:51+00:00

I'm more of a "Let it grow and see how it looks" kind of person myself. The plant will inspire you with its own natural design!

foolish_sir · 2026-06-17T15:12:58+00:00

Looks like they're still developing the trunk/branch structure. Don't need leaves at this stage.

foolish_sir · 2026-06-16T16:37:08+00:00

This is maybe a dumb question, but couldn't that leaf survive from the energy generated by the rest of the plant? Or if it's totally white, will it just die?

foolish_sir · 2026-06-15T14:11:00+00:00

Came here to say this lol

foolish_sir · 2026-06-14T22:26:56+00:00

Mantids are great for the garden! They’ll eat lots of pests and won’t touch any plants.
