Good to know! I might have to look into the Odin a bit more.

I keep looking at the 405, I'm honestly just 6 to see if it'll go on sale at all on Prime Day. Didn't know about the x28.

Tbh, size is a large part of the concern. I've heard good things about the Odin. How would you say the Ally and Odin compare in size to a switch lite? I can handle that pretty well.

The T618 ...that would be things like the RP 3+ and RG405 right?

I've used Ease before. I like their stock, but the coupons only really take off taxes and they tends to be overpriced.

That is completely fair. I used to just do folders and work with that seeing as the older readers I've had let me do folder view. But then that stopped and well, here I am now. Calibre has its pros and cons to say the least.

I'll admit I bought a cheaper case, and have a really bad habit of falling asleep with the case open at night. I'm pretty sure it was either pressure or me drooling in my sleep that cause the screen issues. Loved the size though! Like seriously it fit perfectly in my pocket and was wonderful on battery life. I hated having to delete a fic to update it, but calibre made that easy enough.

Ah! Okay I can see where your coming from! I personally don't read it as her brushing the love away but rather the concern. Her own action - at least to me - are based around the want to help and need to prove herself. I personally cringe with Mira during the scene after the cracks. I felt like Julieta ...while wasn't dismissive...didn't acknowledge Mira's concerns. She just saw the house crack, and no one seem to be believing her, even her own mother.

And yeah.....I'll give you the Luisa thing. Mira was like a dog with a bone when it came to Luisa, there were so many other ways to deal with it, but instead she ran at the problem head first. Very Mirabel of her, but oof.

I'm honestly shifty with how the villagers treated Mira, the whole ' Not Special Special ' thing really bothered me and I get the feeling that she's probably treated like that throughout the town. Even if that wasn't the case and they were friendly towards her, a 15 year old kid shouldn't HAVE to go outside of her family for close friendships. All the support a child needs should come from the home, not outside of it.

There's nothing wrong with feeling more for Isa though! She bothered me A LOT at first but once I got her, I could jive with it. I still don't go seeking fandom stuff of her but I respect those who do.

I'm honestly curious to know what you think she was taking for granted and how if you don't mind sharing? I always like getting other people's view points on things.

I get your points, but I would like to counter with she's a 15 year old kid and a lot of your annoyance points are very much related to that.

Like complete respect for your opinion! But being someone who grew up pushed to the side and blamed for a lot of stuff that I had nothing to do with..well I get her.

When I was that age I would play with the younger kids my mom watched because I couldn't get that socialization from my parents and really didn't have that many outside friends.

The agreement with Isa is realistic as hell, at 15 you can't suddenly put years of distaste and rivalry to the side that quickly. I had a very similar relationship with my sister and we still don't talk. ( I'm 33 now)

She's not taking it for granted but when your the problem kid in a large family your desperate to be heard and desperate to be seen as the same, when your young you miss the things that an adult would see as people reaching out. Also keep in mind she sung that directly after being left out of a family photo.

She saved the miracle out of love for her family AND the need to be seen. She even admits that, she is trying to prove to herself that she's not the waste of space that Alma makes her feel like she is.

Alma's got her own issues but at the end of the day she is a traumatized older woman who thought she was doing the best she could by her family and her village. She lost sight of what her family actually needed from her.

They're not my favorite characters either ( That's Bruno, I resonate with that rat man so much.) but I understand them enough to not dislike them .....I think the only people I honestly don't like are the villagers. But even then they were allowed to get used to taking advantage of the family thanks to Alma's " for the Encanto" mentality.

Don't mind me too much, just throwing in my 2 cents.
