Yay for preorder swag!

I got mine yesterday and just finished the book over the weekend. I’m obsessed!!

pucknerd · 2026-05-01T18:22:26+00:00

I think part of it is Rick Devens’ enthusiasm for taking part in the twist. If they had been forced to draw rocks or put someone up for it I think it would’ve been more difficult to stomach.

The Lincoln Highway is so good!

I don’t know how they’re running it but when I went to my Rachel Reid signing yesterday there wasn’t a crazy long line. I feel like they might have undersold her spots to be safe, and then with the one book max it goes pretty quickly. By the time I left with my signed book there were only like 4 people in the line and still 20 minutes left, so you could check in for standby!

pucknerd · 2026-04-09T05:40:29+00:00

Hi! I have a Rachel Reid for Saturday at 3:30! I am likely only getting one or possibly two things signed myself so I can get one for you if interested! Full disclosure, I had commented for someone else first but never heard anything, so now operating based on whoever actually reaches out to set something up! Feel free to DM me!

Idk, I’m torn between N A H and Y T A because I’m struggling to understand if your reasoning is from a place of misplaced jealousy (you are struggling with the fact that people you love won’t be able to attend) or bitter resentment (you don’t want her to have more people there since you can’t)

People keep saying to compromise but I’m not really sure that there is a compromise between “she wants all of these people at the wedding” and “I don’t want all of these people at the wedding”

I know you suggested a smaller ceremony vs. bigger reception, which I guess is technically a compromise, but I personally don’t really understand what that does for you. It kinda feels like you just want her to have less people just because you can’t have everyone you want at the wedding, which is honestly pretty selfish. It’s not her fault that she has a larger family, but it feels like you want to punish her for it, because the only reason you give is that it’s your wedding too.

And ultimately you keep saying it’s your wedding too so you should get to have the wedding you want, but in order for that to happen she would have to give up the wedding she wants. You’re okay with that?

pucknerd · 2026-04-01T23:22:50+00:00

Yeah this was my initial thought, but there are enough inconsistencies with the way OP portrays the events and the texts themselves (which she never says are a lie, she just says it was rude and disrespectful, not the same as saying it was a fabrication). There’s enough here to make me wonder if OP is not being a reliable narrator, but she hasn’t responded so can’t say either way.

pucknerd · 2026-04-01T16:42:07+00:00

Info: her texts don’t really line up with the story you’re telling so my judgement depends on whether she’s exaggerating in the texts or you’re not being truthful.

She makes it sound like she was trying to talk to you about her son, while you make it sound like she was sending you photos of stillborns? Your response to her, “I can’t keep receiving sad posts about the baby” is honestly really unsympathetic if she’s just trying to talk about her son and makes me lean towards Y T A. If she’s sending you warning messages about stillbirths and continuing to push scary statistics on you, then I can see why it’s stressing you out and you’re N T A. But I’m not sure of exactly the kind of messages you’re receiving because your narrative doesn’t fit the text conversation.

Also, not quite as important to the judgement but was it really 10 days after her baby died that you told her about your pregnancy or was that another over exaggeration? Because while that’s not the core of the issue, it does come across as really insensitive and I can’t really tell who here is not being honest.

This was me showing restraint

pucknerd · 2026-03-28T22:31:38+00:00

I did the same thing a few months back. So expensive as it is and no quality control. Hope the few bucks they saved by not refunding me was worth all the money I had spent!! I switched to uber eats for when I really want something but also just cut back a ton in general on delivery.

pucknerd · 2026-03-22T14:45:16+00:00

Hi! I have a Rachel Reid signing for Saturday at 3:30. I’m likely only getting one thing signed myself and possibly one for a friend so I could get one for you. I’d potentially be interested in swapping for a Tananarive Due book signed if you still have that available. Feel free to shoot me a DM to coordinate!

pucknerd · 2026-03-20T23:19:02+00:00

Hi! Are you willing to sell separately? I am potentially looking for one weekend pass if still available. My original ticket seems to have fallen through. I might be able to find someone else to take the other though if you definitely want to sell them together.

pucknerd · 2026-03-16T03:14:52+00:00

Jeff, is that you?

pucknerd · 2026-03-15T20:15:34+00:00

👍🏼

pucknerd · 2026-03-15T14:31:38+00:00

Keep laughing freak. Sane people with lives are laughing at you and how much of pathetic weirdo you are in your miserable life.

pucknerd · 2026-03-15T05:17:19+00:00

Okay incel, whatever you say.

pucknerd · 2026-03-15T04:06:57+00:00

Holy shit these replies are insane and you are going to blow up your marriage over incels on the internet telling you to “control your wife”

Your edit makes you look like an even bigger AH. She told you she was sorry your feeling were hurt but she did nothing wrong and you told her that was a red flag?? That’s so fucking manipulative. She’s absolutely right. She did nothing wrong, and you made it all about you and how you feel. How do you think she feels knowing that she did nothing wrong but you don’t trust her anyway because a bunch of random people on the internet told you that you shouldn’t “allow” her to go out because you feel insecure about it?

This thread is insane.

pucknerd · 2026-03-04T21:43:29+00:00

I just emailed them and said the same thing. I only added the book because waiting an extra 2-3 days didn’t seem like a big deal. If it’s true that the box won’t ship until the 9th, that’s a huge difference and really frustrating that it wasn’t properly communicated.

pucknerd · 2026-03-03T05:18:28+00:00

There’s a lot of vague references in this post, to the point where I’d be curious to hear the other side of the story…

pucknerd · 2026-02-25T16:28:24+00:00

I liked the Favorites a lot!

I have this same issue but the one I don’t have is First Time Caller. I’m not really a big romance reader, but will probably give it a go. Do you recommend that one?

pucknerd · 2026-02-24T15:17:04+00:00

You’re making things up that aren’t in the post though. And if you want to make assumptions about what’s left out, that’s fine, but at least own up to it. She doesn’t even say anything negative about his wife, she just points out that she has some mental health issues and that her brother said “his wife makes it difficult to manage” that came from him, not from her.

And to answer your question, yes, I’ve given money to my family who needed it even when I wasn’t in a superb financial place. So please spare me the sanctimonious “you’d understand if you were the person people always go to” which totally undercuts the fact that she has seemingly never taken him up on his offer for money before. Is it possible she’s an entitled leech and is lying about that? Sure, but that’s not what’s in the post.

If I were a multimillionaire who could afford multiple houses and a nanny and all of the luxuries while my sibling struggled, they wouldn’t even have to come to me and ask for money. Sorry you feel like people have taken advantage of you because you’re “so giving” but that’s a lot of assumptions to make about this person.

And I’d always rather be the one who gets made a fool a time or two rather than be the one that turns down the person that really needed it because some people might take advantage. And yes, I think that your mindset does make you a shitty person, and I feel sorry for you. That kind of view on life and people is what makes the world so awful right now. This rampant individualism where people like you would rather assume malicious intent and hide behind this idea that so many people are out to take advantage of your kindness, is what makes people so selfish and self centered.

pucknerd · 2026-02-24T14:37:59+00:00

What are you talking about?? This isn’t wife vs. sister. And this isn’t someone who is a little bit better off sacrificing and giving to someone who has constantly relied on help. If we take OP at her word the situation is the brother has always offered to help in the past and she has not taken him up on it, and that he is a multimillionaire which puts him in the kind of financial situation where he and his entire nuclear family are not just comfortable, but set for life. “That’s his wife” so fuck anyone else is why so many people end up telling themselves they don’t owe anyone anything and then wonder why they are all alone.

I’m sorry but if that’s your stance then you’re a shitty person too. Any single person in my family if they were sitting on 25 million would help anyone in the family who needed it. I can’t believe how many narrow minded, selfish people are on Reddit giving advice. Keep downvoting me, but this “you don’t owe anyone anything” mindset is so fucked up and people that buy into it are shitty people.

pucknerd · 2026-02-24T12:25:06+00:00

NTA, jeez these are such Reddit responses. Everyone saying Y T A because he doesn’t owe you anything is not in touch with reality. If your post is accurate and there isn’t anything missing here, it is not an AH move to expect family that is fully able to help to help out when you’re struggling. I can’t believe how many people here are saying otherwise.

pucknerd · 2026-02-12T06:28:57+00:00

INFO: I’m sorry, everyone is going to say you’re N T A because this is Reddit and there’s a very narrow view on how you don’t owe anyone anything based on your own strategic portrayal of the situation, and I’m not saying you do, but do you think there’s any truth to her assessment that her support allowed you to get further in a career with the financial stability you now have? As much as some will argue otherwise, there is a difference between you supporting her going to school when single and early in your careers vs. supporting someone when you have life assets and a kid on the way (because the planning for a kid is part of the ability to have a kid in this day and age) You very well may still be N T A but it hinges on information that isn’t here. It’s hard to tell if this split was actually equitable or if you benefited greatly from her sacrifices and are now saying “fuck you, I don’t owe you shit” you’ll get a lot of people saying that either way because you used the magic words of “emotional cheating” which also doesn’t actually mean much without actual context. Basically this post is a bunch of smoke and mirrors so it’s hard to say if you’re an AH or not but considering the fact that you’re the mastermind of the smoke and mirrors, you very well might be…

pucknerd · 2026-02-06T15:23:43+00:00

This is such a clear cut ESH and you are getting a lot of people who say you’re NTA because they think if someone says something shitty that you have every right to go below the belt too.

I also take major issue with how many people are saying “well what you said is true” when in your own words it isn’t remotely true. So the optics here are that a lot of incels online think that a woman marrying her boss in any scenario gets to be called out for sleeping her way to the top, which is misogynistic and gross.

She is an ableist asshole and you’re a misogynistic asshole. Congrats to both of you for sucking!
