I mean, it is a soap opera and the characters are pretty good. It is on Netflix.
A super violent Spanish soap opera called the Wrong Side of the Tracks.
It is just nice to be able to comment and have it read instead of buried 3000 comments down after the memes and one-liners.
Sorry. No deal currently. I meant, that’s what I’d buy it at if it was on sale.
I have to look up a bunch of these ones. Gaiman is excellent and the Ocean book is good but not his best. Mistborn is simply outstanding though and I devoured them. Hail Mary I know about and want it on sale. I don’t recognize the rest.
I would snatch it up on a sale for $5! I just finished the Martian and loved it.
I read those 25 years ago. I gotta say, I was a rather underwhelmed but by all means read Book 1 and form your own view.
This? Are they are good?
Awesome. I am looking forward to getting back into Hamilton and Sanderson!
Currently, I have the following books on my wish list that I am thinking about buying.
Salvation by Peter Hamilton. I have read everything he has published except his short stories and love them so this is next on my to-read list.
Soon I Will Be Invincible by Austin Grossman. Seems kinda cool.
Seven Deadly Wonders by Matthew Reilly. It seems like a book in a similar vein as Jurassic Park, Dan Brown, Clive Cussler type stuff.
Pernasi By Susanna Clarke. I read her first book nearly 20 years ago and thought it was good. I really like creative sci-fi stuff. I am re-reading the Ninefox Gambit series again currently so this seems right up my alley.
Brandon Sanderson Way of Kings Book 3. Yeah, I probably need to start with Book 1 again and catch up. Has anyone read his Secret Books yet?
Good point. I do prefer books over short stories though.
Do any science fiction book subscriptions exist anymore with reasonably good quality books? About 10 years ago I was able to subscribe to a year of Angry Robot books for about $120 or $150. It wasn’t a bad deal as I remember I got about 24 books for the price.
I just finished that one as well. I thought it was good but not good enough to commit to reading the second White Knight book. I thought Batman Hush Batman Universe, and Batman RIP were much better.
Excellent advice. I will review the site!
I go back and forth on digital, but if it is cheaper than paper in this case, maybe it makes sense if I can find the right collections.
The local used book store just closed. I will have to travel out a bit further.
The 35-year retrospective is excellent but not portable for the commute.
Maybe a road trip is needed or some careful hunting on eBay.
What is the best way to acquire readable copies of Ellison’s short stories?
Amazon prices look extremely high at hundreds of dollars per copy. By readable, I mean books with font sizes larger than size 6 so a probably editions published after 1990. Is there a better name for these readable non-1970s editions?
eBay and thrift books are also good alternatives.
I guess I am surprised prices are so high but I guess many of his books are out of print.
I bought my son 5 different Batman books and we have been reading them together. Lots of fun. I also finally bought Completely Mad (a history of Mad magazine) after wanting to read it for several years so that is on its way.
What a great question. I have added S and House of Leaves to my to-read list.
Wow. That website is cancer on mobile.
Post it twice?
When will the app’s name on the screen change?
I have a new PK300 and an Akorn. I have previously owned a Weber 22”, a Masterbuilt 560, and a Pit Barrel Cooker.
Another vote for Bitwarden!
Why is it that I can find the dogs community lemmy.world with over 2k subscribers while the same community does not appear when I search from vlemmy?

How long should it take? Been waiting 45 minutes. I thought I’d switch to ease the load on lemmy.world.
What are the pros and cons? For someone who has zero IT background so ELI5.
