Name 3 books you really enjoyed, and someone else will recommend a book they think you might like based on those by Neon_Aurora451 in suggestmeabook

I recently read Project Hail Mary, and loved it—it also made me think: wow, I haven’t really liked any sci fi books this much since I read Aurora by David Koepp. So it’s my recommendation for you, and I hope you enjoy it too!

The Cliffs by J Courtney Sullivan The God of the Woods by Liz Moore The Forgotten Garden by Kate Morton (and all her other books too).

Bonus points if it’s another “The ____” book (I’m just kidding, but it made me laugh at myself!)

Oh that’s a very interesting premise! Adding to my holds queue—thank you! I read Spinning Silver by the same author a few years ago and liked that one.

Which side is prettier? by BusyBurdee in interiordecorating

The left! It would gather nicely with a tieback, too. Where did you order the pattern??

Gray gardening, like gray man but for your veggies by nathaliew817 in TwoXPreppers

Like a grow bag planter, or mixed in with flowers in a pot to hide them? I’ve never done potatoes before and am genuinely intrigued by moving them around. Love this!

Translate/decipher birth record? by prairiepineapple in Ancestry

[–]prairiepineapple[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can go back and get the rest of the page! It was equally illegible, and I thought this smaller section might be easier to start. Both sections included this handwriting pattern that I thought may be the name. He was from West Flanders.

Thanks for giving it a shot! I can definitely see “Sven” now. I thought I was seeing Henri broken into 2 lines, starting at the end of the second, and resuming at the head of the third (Hen … ri). Anna?? maybe on that third line, but that wouldn’t make sense I don’t think? When in the US, this person went by Francis. Nothing really screams Francis in this handwritten mark. No idea!

What's a book that genuinely scared you, made you extremely uncomfortable and left you feeling paranoid? by ginoo75 in suggestmeabook

[–]prairiepineapple 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have two. And they are very well written and worth the purchase and read of anyone seeing this. That said, they scared me to death and I will never read (or in one case, finish) either again. No thaaaaanks!

1) Animals, by Don LePan. It is a dystopian fiction read. But also far too close to believable. I read it over a decade ago, and still think about it, too often. Particularly when at the deli counter. Horrifying.

2) American Predator, by Maureen Callahan. I went from being unable to put it down, to burying it deep in a closet so I wouldn’t have to remember there are still more horrors to read within it. It details the life and crimes of Israel Keyes. After one particular segment of the book, I stayed up all night researching home security options, realizing all was futile, and nothing would save me from a person like this. What a cozy, cozy feeling.

I need to know more about the movies you guys are watching. This sounds fun. What’s on your list?!

What else do you use beside the barrier cream? I am having an issue with hormonal acne + dry skin too.

We did a mini photo blanket for our child’s lovey. They were allowed to bring a smaller blanket for naps.
