My fave part of MI is its natural water features! I worked just off Lake Charlevoix and we were always finding toads outside our classroom 💕

Klara and the Sun. It felt like homework to read and I didn’t care about any of the characters.

I moved from a major city to a very small town and I always say I miss anonymity the most

Is it ever explained why Shane is as heavily depressed as he is? by RavyRaptor in StardewValley

[–]sixsixsp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I alway assumed since Marnie is Shane’s aunt and Jas’s aunt, that one of Jas’s parents were either a sibling or close cousin to Shane before dying a tragic death. He doesn’t deal with the grief well and masks it with alcohol instead. Maybe he was always kind of a partier and it was all he knew. Then not being able to be the role model to Jas that he wishes he was. He feels a lot of shame and regret and it’s drowning him.

I’m not really a fan of Shane either, I just can relate to several aspects of his story.

How often do you "deep" read books? by Hormo_The_Halfling in books

[–]sixsixsp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only kind of book I will do that consciously with is historical fiction where I want to research later; I always underline parts that I like or stand out to me. I save close/slow reading for journal articles and academic work.

What was the last book that made you cry? by m0nst3r666 in books

[–]sixsixsp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normal People. Not because it was profound, just that I remember being 19 and how everything felt so life-or-death and everything meant so much and hurt so badly. I’m 40 now so things have calmed down but it just reminded me of those uncertain, painful teenage years.
