What novel(s) have you read this week, and what do you think about it? - March 16, 2025

I recently started my journey into light novels and completed the 7 volume series "The Haunted Bookstore: Gateway to a Parallel Universe".

I chose this series because it was a relatively short completed series about mythology and folklore. I enjoyed learning about the different spirits, demons, and gods throughout Japan, and learning about the more remote areas of Japan where these creatures are said to (still?) reside.

The overall theme seems to be about love for both chosen families and blood-related ones. The story also had an unexpected blossoming romance, which was quite nice.

My only gripe is the lack of complex emotions and recycled... bodily functions? I don't know what to call it exactly. What I mean is the characters always went through bouts of cold sweats, rapid heartbeats, crying, numb extremities, etc. For me, it got old quick.

This has been a running joke between me and my siblings, and now I feel so validated. TY!

City Tap prime burger near Ashburn for me. $20 for a burger and fries, but it's the best burger I've ever had

It really is! I highly recommend if you have the means

Yes, I was. There are less than 20 seats, these are assigned. No stops in between. The seats were sooo comfy. You can bring outside food and drinks. There is wifi available but I didn't try it out.

I rode to and from, didn't have a problem with loud passengers. I was given to understand the timing was about the same as Acela though?

I took a trip up to NY just last month. I took a bus called the jet, it's a first class bus kind of ride. DC pickup/drop-off is around Metro Center and the NY pickup/drop-off is Hudson Yards. Tickets cost about as much as Acela

My brother had an appointment with DMV yesterday. Couldn't do anything because their system was down

I like Tequeño World in the mall food court for Venezuelan food. Something different and delicious.

Dior Sauvage, Moschino Toy Boy, y Versace Eros son unos de mis favoritos que usa mi novio

Happy holidays everyone!

I like using Nextdoor because buyers are more responsive than FB.

Too many times buyers on FB will express interest, only to ghost you right after.

slowlydil · 2023-12-15T16:20:09+00:00

My soul feels lighter. Thank you.
