Please correct me here.

ACOTAR is about the Archeron sisters and the Bat Boys. Do we all agree with this?

We are getting two novels with a different couple’s story in each (and a novella). Right?

Who is the second book about if one is Elain and Azriel together?

We’ve run out of sisters and bat boys. Have we not?

Am I being asked to believe we are going to finish off the series with Lucien x Vassa? Tamlin x idk? Eris x also idk (but not Mor)?

Hate when this happens. The longer I own a device the more I grow attached to it. I can only imagine how I would feel if having nursed vintage tech to beover 10 years old to have key features ripped from it. *sigh*

I need e-reader discourse to chill out. I don’t want a kindle, but I can’t find any actual reviews on if nooks are as bad as people say. Some nook reviews act like the nook came into their home and kidnapped their grandma. THEY CANT BE THAT BAD RIGHT?? Right?? The only real difference I see between a nook and a kindle is that the kindle has kindle unlimited but I don’t plan on ever using that service anyway.

I truly just don’t want to support Amazon and their blatant price gouging of book merchandise to just decimate any independent book seller.

We need more of a market for e-readers why are there only two choices because why am I making a pros and cons list but two of the cons are “evil corporate overlord” and “doesn’t work?”

The Easter Bunny aka LJ Ross dropped a new DCI Ryan book. I'm a very happy (Easter) Bunny and already half way through the book. I love it so far. Happy to read about new adventures of the criminal investigation department and Ryan's team in famous Northumberland settings. Also, reading this, I hear it in my head in Jonathan Keeble's voice, who narrates the audiobooks. I'll have to wait for the audiobook a while longer, but its great to have a new story already 😊

And of course imagining Ryan looking like this (my manip)

Kobo has come out with a colored e-reader MONTHS after I got my kindle🥲 as someone whose only complaint abt the paperwhite was that I can’t color code my annotations, I am taking this personally. Because how dare they😭

Ugggh it was free but I had to download an adobe program just so I could download the book I legally paid for from google (also ugh) play just so I could put it on the ancient ass e-reader that'll get here soon. There's got to be an easier way to download the shit you've legally paid for without having to deal with proprietary bullshit, right? On top of all that, amazon (uggggggh) changed their DCRM this very year to something Calibre hasn't been able to crack, so all the books I legally bought from kindle can't be put on the e-reader at all, keeping me reliant on the app on my phone.

Kobo was created by Indigo Books but is now owned by Rakuten, so the Indigo company doesn't get anything if I buy e-books from kobo, right? I wanna say kobo and Barnes and noble/nook don't have bullshit like this for the books themselves, just their proprietary e-readers only allowing books from their services onto the devices themselves, which is why I opted not to get a kobo or nook in the first place

Anyway I hate this crap lol. Someone once stated that when you purchase an e-book (or any media, really) these days you don't own the book, you just rented out the privilege to read it, and that privilege can be revoked at any time. It's so fucking dumb. I don't hate technology I just hate how it evolved into such bullshit. It didn't have to be like this

Taking advantage of Amazons Stuff your Kindle day and some of these books i dont want to download even though they are free and sound interesting purely because of the title/cover. I dont want someone to look over my shoulder and judge me because the book is titled “sleeping my fathers best friend whos 20 years older than me”. Like I would never recover.

Also would like to shed some concern for the book I saw (and downloaded) with a key word that said “3 million year age gap”.

I bought myself an e-reader and it’s arriving today. I’m about to become so insufferable and a reader of fanfiction here there and everywhere. And normal books too I guess.
