I second Severance, it’s the most unusual book I’ve read all year and I just loved it.  In fact I ordered a copy so I can read it again (my first go-round was borrowed audio).

Unfortunately The Immortalists fell short for me too.  Dread Nation I liked, but didn’t love--there were parts that felt too slow, parts that felt too fast.  The pacing felt off in some way.  The narrator was an absolute delight.  I do plan on reading the sequel as I thought there was enough there that I enjoyed and…

Yes, this was absolutely fantastic.  So well done.

Fingerprint or face ID for purchases are rendered moot when you’re using a card as an authorized user and you want to access it via mobile wallet.

My top 10 published in 2018 are:

Very intriguing! I’ll have to try this.

Yup.  I had to go in for a procedure and when I got to the dr the reception said, “oh, sorry, we didn’t clear this with your insurance so let’s do that now” so she calls them and they allow it, but depending if i’d met my deductible yet will determine what I have to pay.  I hadn’t met it, so I ask that exact question…

I run with audiobooks.

However I am also guessing Toby’s been on FMLA leave provided his company has over 50 employees since he was so depressed he couldn’t get out of bed so that may have eaten up savings.

Maybe I only follow super popular creators, but they’re all very, very financially successful doing their SM thing so.....

I too didn’t think she was necessarily the teacher at the school--I assumed she was the executive director, dropping in on a class.

Thank you for this.  TBH I was rolling my eyes at this pretty hard.  Those who can work from home have it so, so good.

I work at a public school.  Here at least, you have to have a bachelor’s to sub.  The only way I can think this storyline was realistic was that Madison told the principal about Kate, who then called her in to interview casually as a long-term sub, and just assumed she’d have the 4-year degree.

This show makes such an effort to show diverse characters in all walks of life (age, race, size, sexuality, etc) except for financial IMO. Sure we’ve got William and his neighbors, but I don’t think the show’s doing much of a job portraying income issues all in all. With William the storyline was (rightfully so) on…

I would commit some serious crimes in order to have a remote job.  Seriously.

Maybe Jack knows Nicky faked his death, and has been holding up his story the rest of his life?

This stresses me out, as I prepare to be a first-time parent.  I have NO idea what to expect going into L&D.  And I have to figure out a plan? 

I will second this, as someone who is planning to be a parent in 2019 or earl 2020.

Just as a point of reference, if I’m having a Raynaud’s attack, putting on a sweater or gloves or thicker socks isn’t going to help. The only thing that I’ve found that helps me is an insanely hot shower. Turning up the heat might work after a while, but by the time any effects are observable the meal service would be…

Do you have the freedom card?  I’m using that to pay for groceries pretty frequently--this year we had Q1 Mobile Wallet, Q2 Grocery stores, Q3--that one didn’t apply, and Q4 is wholesale clubs or Chase Pay, which I use to buy groceries with my Samsung pay b/c you can use Samsung Pay through Chase Pay.  I’m hoping they…
