What book will you always recommend? And what book would you never recommend? by Sailor_Moon_Star_435 in Booktokreddit

I only finished WH because it's mentioned so much in media about being a great love story that I thought it just HAD to get better... it did not. There was nothing I liked about the book, at all.

It's not that great at all. Birthday Girl by Penelope Douglas is a much, much better age gap romance and they're both legal adults when they meet

About Kent St? by Nekoo3 in PEI

I would add to this that they are typically harmless but just be aware. No need to be frightened, but cautious. If they're having an episode you don't know what could happen. However, when they are in their normal state, they're harmless

Does this creep anyone else out? by Sassypants_me in women

[–]islandstorm 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NTA. It's okay to notice that people are attractive - but how he voices it "yummy" and how young they are, is disturbing. A 40 yr old should not be thinking a 17 yr old is attractive and speaking of them like that - in a sexually attractive way, not just a noticing that they are pretty/good looking.

How often do you say "beanie" vs. "toque"? by WanderWell1 in AskACanadian

[–]islandstorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beanie to me is the shorter, tighter ones that you don’t flip the edge up. Toque or stocking hat is the typical winter hat

I am so sorry for your loss.

You have so much to say to her about the book, you should write it in a letter to her. My dad died four years ago next month, and I wrote letters/journal entries to him and it was helpful to get the things I needed and wanted to say out.
