love love LOVE the mark read on scroll! And the inbox is beautiful with a particularly amazing job done on the selector!
Holy cow the app is so much faster and noticeably snappier!!!!!! Excellent job, friends!
That is so valid and I’ve been considering doing something similar. What books API do you use? I tried various ones for a project a little while ago and was a bit disappointed in the data quality.
Hello all! I mostly use StoryGraph (my name is creadstoomuch if you wanna be friends), but I was wondering what other options y'all have found that work for you. There are many things I like about it (the fact that it is not an Amazon product, the design, the stats, the currently reading tracking abilities) but there are also some things I don't like (the drop down menus behaving irregularly and, in some places, very poorly being my biggest issue). I also use LibraryThing to find my next reads but it doesn't have the currently reading tracking of StoryGraph.
So what do you use? I'd love to hear your thoughts!
You could try asking your local Youth Services Librarian. They see so many books and often have some amount of research backgrounds. They also tend to LOVE this kind of mystery.
Ah damnit. I sorta thought this problem started on my old computer but I thought ‘Surely not. How could this problem be tied to my Apple ID??’ but your experience suggests I was correct. :/ was hoping it would eventually go away with a new device
Hey all! I think at one point I changed the balance of my audio output (an earbud was a little dead so I shifted the amount of sound coming out of the left and right to compensate). I’ve long since gotten a new pair of headphones but sometimes I connect them and the balance has reverted back! It drives me bananas (I’m the sort of person who must turn on the mono sound accessibility feature bc stereo effects make me dizzy) and I have no idea if it’s something I’m doing to trigger the behavior or if I’m stuck with it until this computer dies.
Anyone else experiencing this or have any ideas about how to fix it?
Haha yeah I truly send the single required image a day and use it for nothing else bc it is a horrible platform. As soon as we lose the streak I’m deleting the app.
Is this a normal way for a cat to sleep? He is a rescue and I’m pretty sure his hips were injured at some point, so I always thought that this was related. But we’ve just gotten a kitten who started doing it too.
Does anyone know where one might acquire chocolate Twizzlers in Cambridge (or one of the adjacent cities)? I've looked at Star and CVS and haven't found any. Thanks!
Amazing!!! I LOVE the swipe down to close the image! Y’all are doing great work!
Hmm that’s interesting. It should be upvote and downvote. And compact mode posts don’t collapse any further.
And I absolutely loved it. It is honestly one of my new favorite books. I am going to tag basically this whole post as spoilers because the thing that truly makes this book amazing does not start until almost 100 pages in.

I love stories about friendship and the friendship between Grace and Rocky was truly beautiful. They are both lost and confused and in a horrible situation but they both take everything in stride. They see a way to help eachother and to not have to do it alone and they grab onto it with both (all five) hands. The way they both accept the other's habits knowing there are things that are fundamentally different between each other is a lesson for everyone.
The growth we see from Grace is also some of the best I've read. We learn later that he chose the self-centered path by refusing to join the Hail Mary crew on his own. Then, when faced with a very similar choice he chooses to save Rocky and his people instead of himself. I honestly cried.
Not only are our two main characters amazing but they are FUNNY! I laughed out loud so many times!
Overall I cant wait to re-read this one a bit down the line.

So, have you read this one? What did you think?
