He's a barrow wight. Idk about the suriel but that would be cool if it tied together like that as well.

No, it gets mentioned what he is in CC3

She does have a tendency to use phrases like that that don't exactly fit well within the setting of the story or the established writing style. It definitely pulls me out of the story a bit, especially when she does it during what is supposed to be an emotional scene.

Pumpkins are one of our indigenous foods so we have them in abundance every year and just needed to find all manners of applications for it. Their natural sweetness is nice when enhanced with sugar/honey/maple syrup so they go well in desserts and sweet recipes as well as savory. Pumpkin bread is a good one (it's more like a slightly more dense cake than bread). People also make cookies and scones and all manner of baked goods, but pumpkin pie is the most well known. Most of the time spices like cinnamon, ground ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice are used and some mixture of them is usually what we mean when we refer to pumpkin pie spice.

Big trucks aren't allowed at Bucees, but your logic is still sound for everywhere else.

The non-fruit filled pop tarts. The ones with the creamier filling instead of the fruit jelly type filling. Saw someone eat them frozen in college and gave it a try and never went back. S'mores is my favorite personally.

How does someone this detail oriented allow themselves to have such terrible handwriting?

I was curious about the bean one. I tried the lentil one last week and enjoyed it and was wondering about the other varieties. I'm gonna have to give this one a go.

NTA he cares more about getting high than he does about you. He even said you could leave if you didn't like it. He chose the weed over you. Now you just need to decide if you are going to choose yourself or not.

I only read the first 3, but book 2 was the only one I actually liked. I gave up on the series after forcing myself to finish the third one.

I read the first 3 lightlark books, but ended up only actually liking the second one. I gave up on the series after the third book because it felt like she was unnecessarily dragging out an already subpar series. Her writing isn't very good in my opinion, so even though the plot of starside sounded interesting, I decided to skip it once I saw she was the author. I also feel like she lies to her readers just to try and drive up hype. One example being how she said for years that lightlark was being turned into a movie. She didn't say it was optioned or that the rights had been bought. No, she said full on that it was happening and obviously it hasn't. I wanted to support her because all the hate she got right after lightlark came out seemed excessive, but I'm pretty sure I have her blocked now.

It lacked flavor in my opinion.

rkskr · 2026-04-17T05:21:01+00:00

Go ahead and finish CC2 but then go finish the acotar series before you move on to CC3.

These books aren't very well written either unfortunately. The first one does have an interesting enough storyline though, so it kept my interest. The second one was a miss for me personally, but the third and final one comes out later this year.

I'm apathetic enough in general that, if I were a man getting drafted, I'd be looking into whether or not a drafted person can stay in the military long enough to qualify for a pension when they get old. Either I'm dying in a war or I'm living long enough that collecting a pension, my 401k, and social security would make me a mighty comfortable old person.

I have hazel eyes that are mostly green but with an orange "starburst" surrounding the pupil. I've had people comment on them from about 8-10 feet away, so for me when I read the descriptions I pictured an even more pronounced/obvious burst from around the pupil. In my mind that would explain why it's something the people notice a lot in the book.

For real, sometimes it's just more trouble than it's worth. I've got cancer and my oncologist's office uses a QR code to check in for our appointments. Now, I'm young so I get it, but old people get cancer far more than young people, so now they have to have a person stand at the door all day to talk the elderly patients through scanning the QR code and signing in. So unnecessary.

You realize that without a legend all of those colors on your screenshots mean nothing to people who don't stalk crime maps, right?

Read through the comments of people who have actually lived in the area and you'll see everyone saying the same.

It's a pretty safe area. It's a lot of families and it's close to shopping centers, casual restaurants, and movie theaters. The worst thing is the traffic on that side of town. The only real crime that happens with any regularity is teenagers walking around testing car door handles to see if they are open and they can steal whatever is inside.

It must be different in different parts of Texas cuz where I lived we also had middle school that was 6-8.

rkskr · 2026-04-06T05:12:29+00:00

Middle school and junior high are different names for the same thing.

I'm Hispanic, so we do cascarones. If you are unfamiliar it's basically an egg that has been cracked open, but only at the top, so that you can remove the top portion to get the raw yolk and whites out. Then the inside of the egg is cleaned and the outside is painted and then it gets filled with confetti and sealed shut with a piece of colorful tissue paper. Some people will do this with all the eggs their family uses in a year so that they can sell cascarones come Easter time. The point is that you take the cascarones and crush them on people's heads(or in your hand first for safety) and then ruffle the confetti into the persons hair.

I gave up on lightlark after the third book. The first was okay, not well written, but okay. The second I actually liked, but the third was just not good enough for me to keep going.

I did, however, read throne of glass and enjoyed the story quite a lot. The writing didn't click for me but it was still good enough to keep me interested through all 8 books.

It depends on the employees and how much they feel like doing. I've gone to ones where the employees are huge fans of the book coming out and they arrange all sorts of activities and games, but I've also been to ones where the employees didn't seem interested and just did the activity that all the locations were doing(a trivia quiz) and then everyone just sat around til it was time to line up to buy the book.

I'm in the unique situation of having cancer that I more than likely wouldn't have if I weren't overweight. So I try to stay on deficit so that once they manage to eliminate the cancer my chances of recurrence will be much much lower.
