Hello everyone! I'm Owl, I have been enjoying books for a while now, probably since I was 4-5 years old! My great-grandpa and Grandpa were both in the Air Force, now retired. I hope I become great friends with everyone here!

Currently reading:
Lake of Secrets by Lael Littke
Description: Strange, fragmented memories have been haunting Carlene since she and her mother came to Lake Isadora. The vivid recollections don't seem to relate to anything in Carlene's own past. Until now, she hadn't even seen the place where Keith, the brother she never knew, disappeared during a storm fifteen years ago. Some think he drowned, but his mother thinks he was kidnapped and is still alive somewhere. She is sure the little boy's clothes that have just been found near the lake belonged to her son.
Carlene knows that her bizarre memories have something to do with Keith. They might even help her discover the truth about what happened the day he disappeared. But she can't possibly be remembering things that happened before she was born unless the memories are from a past life.

Thank you, everyone, for the 'happy new threads', I never thought I would actually have enough messages to make one.
22Owltherian
Still reading Scythe but honestly, i keep being forced to read it, which is not fun due to the fact I already read and I do it when i want, and now i don't want to read it whenever I'm forced.
23Owltherian
My day yesterday was okay, ended on my mom yelling at me, but today is going way better, although i have a lot of reading to catch up on in Scythe but that's okay!
24Owltherian
Books i want to read:
Cujo by Stephen King
The Mist by Stephen King (i have watched the movie already)

25The_Hibernator
>22 Owltherian: Most people feel that way. I hated both Ethan Frome and Anna Karenina because I was pressured (or forced) to read them and was told that "these are books mature people read, and if you don't like them, you're not mature." And that's supposed to encourage me to like them? I think not.
26Owltherian
>25 The_Hibernator: Yeah, i had the whole weekend to read the 10+ chapters of it & i didn't finish it bc i was SUPER busy + i was told to read it in the span of like 20 minutes & i didn't want to read it anymore.

Hi, Owl! Happy new 🧵!
Wow, you’re listening to a lot of podcasts! I’ve only followed two (Serial and one on ancient British history, I don’t remember the name), and I haven’t listened to them in awhile. What are your favorites? I don’t have the patience to listen to a lot, but I’d like to give one or 2 a listen.

29Owltherian
Honestly my favories have to be: History is Gay & The NoSleep Podcast
30Owltherian
Lore has way too many episodes- and I'm relistening to it due to listening to it with my father, but out of like 200+ episodes I'm only on episode 14 or 15 i think-
Also Lord Byron's name is VERY close to my brothers name

Happy new thread, Lily!
Not a big podcast fan myself, but I love audiobooks! I am glad to see that you have so many podcasts in which you are interested.

>29 Owltherian: Thanks! I’ll give them a listen!
36Owltherian
>35 Storeetllr: You're welcome! The NoSleep Podcast is packed with spooky tales, while the History Is Gay podcast explores the possibility that some people in the past may not have been straight. For example: Pirates. It's a fun listen!
I would listen to audiobooks if i didn't have to pay for them on my spotify.

>36 Owltherian: All I do is listen to audiobooks. (My old tired eyes don’t do well reading books; I struggle with screens too.)
Libby is the library app I use to get most of my audio reads. If you have a library card, you can get audios free. I highly recommend it! I’d be broke if I had to pay for my audio reads.

A belated Happy New One!!! And I'm not really into podcasts but love some of the titles of your list...may have to look into some of those. ; )
41Owltherian
>40 Berly: Thanks! I hope you enjoy them, if you decide to start listening to them of course.

*sigh* I'm stuck in a loop with Scythe and the whole damn series, I have to have TWO of the parts now done by next Thursday!

44Owltherian
*sigh* my teacher is making me stressed....and i already cried today
45Owltherian
Maybe i can listen to The Alchemist.....maybe
46Owltherian
WHY IS TRYING TO GET A LIBRARY CARD SO HARDDDD
47Owltherian
Well never freaking mind! It wont even let me get a card!
48Storeetllr
Message me and I’ll try to help with the card problem.
49Owltherian
Sadly im not close to finishing any books, but I'm sure going to read a very small book like The Black Cat once i get home
50Owltherian
*sigh* I have a quiz on The Alchemist soon....I'm going to fail due to not even starting it....its just so boring....
51Owltherian
I know what books im going to read: The Black Cat, Horseradish, and maybe a few other books by the lovely Lemony Snicket
52Owltherian
Book #15 now: The Hound Dog Whitman Tiny-Tot Tales by Nancy Hoag
Lovely little children's book, i believe my dad used to own it when he was a child, and its a great tiny read for very small children learning to read!

Book #16 now Lily and Ted by Lucinda Jacob
Lovely small read again, and its also translated into Irish! So even more children can read it! It also seems that it is not on LT yet.

55hannah7097
>50 Owltherian: When I was in high school, a friend recommended me this book so I rushed to reserve it from the library. I was so excited when it arrived only to be let down. I don't think I made it past the first chapter. The shepherd went to sleep in a church or something and the book made me want to go to sleep so I just returned it. Glad I didn't have to read it for school!
56Owltherian
>55 hannah7097: I have to, and have a quiz and have only read the first part of it, but oh boy is it one of the more boring books i have read
57Owltherian
Wow! I liked the suspense in the end of The Monkey's Paw although i feel bad for the old couple. This books makes #17!
58Owltherian
If you count stories from textbooks i guess the first book i read was The Most Dangerous Game by Richard Connell
59Owltherian
Went to bed at 2 something in the morning, I'm feeling very tired, and time to hear more yelling about me not having a book finished....
60Kristelh
The Monkey Paw is a great horror short story. I have not read The Alchemist and have no desire. I am not a fan of Paulo Coelho.
61Owltherian
>60 Kristelh: I am not a fan either, and i have to read that exact book by next Tuesday i think- and i haven't even touched it-
62Owltherian
Still reading Midnight Bayou sadly, its a great book i can just never find the time to read anymore
63Kristelh
This maybe isn't the thing to do, I don't know, but I've been told that when reading a book you hate, just skim. Read the first paragraph's sentence and the last sentence. I also use u-tube to find people's reviews to help me understand what is going on when I have difficulty engaging with a work. Thankfully The Alchemist is short and skimming might work.
64Owltherian
Yeah, we have Socratic Circles for the book as well which suck
65Owltherian
i also have a gatto on me and i think i started my period today- AND THAT REMINDS ME i need to go grab my pad bag!
66Owltherian
*sigh* i for sure did, and good lord does it hurt

>36 Owltherian: Do you have access to a library that might have digital offerings? I am currently listening to an audiobook that I am able to access through Hoopla. Just a thought.
>66 Owltherian: I am sorry, Lily. I hope that you can take some Midol or something to help with the pain.

I have found audiobooks sometimes work for me when the print book does not. Maybe they will prove helpful to you as well.

71Owltherian
>69 SirThomas: Maybe it will, and im kind of glad other people are reading it now, although its sad I'm not interested in it anymore really, but then again i have club so i have to read said book again today.
72Owltherian
>70 alcottacre: Yeah, i feel like listening to The Alchemist is better than actually physically reading it.
73Owltherian
Oh help meee- i want to go home...my teacher just started singing-
74Owltherian
I have to think of song lyrics.....welp i might as well fail bc i cant think of anything
75Owltherian
OH HELL NO- SHE'S MAKING US SING THE LYRICS WE MAKE-

80Storeetllr
I’m SO glad I’m not in high school anymore! Just reading what you’re dealing with brings back the anxiety. (The book I had to read in high school thatI hated most was An American Tragedy by Dreiser. It put me off reading for years. I still can’t bear to think of it.)
81Owltherian
The Alchemist is about to put me out of reading for sure- its so boring
82Owltherian
i had to do an assignment with a bunch of horrible pictures! There was just a pile of human bones...
83Owltherian
Do people take my kindness for granted? I don't know....maybe they do- or they scream....
84Owltherian
Well i think i am sadly sick
85Owltherian
It hurts to swallow a little, and i feel like I'm going to throw up, and i really don't want to.
86Owltherian
Heading to bed, see you in the morning!
88Owltherian
I hope so as well since i have school in the morning.
90Owltherian
*sigh* Ends up i feel a lot worse- and it hurts a lot to swallow
91Owltherian
Oh welp- Its gotten a lot lot worse- if i talk it feels like i may throw up today so no talking for me
92Owltherian
I either have a cold or a fever- not sure which.
93ArlieS
I hope whatever you have is just a cold or similar, and you recover quickly. Meanwhile, as the ads used to say "rest in bed, get plenty of fluids, ... "
94Owltherian
i will try my best to rest, although i was forced to talk which made my throat hurt worse.
95Owltherian
Hah- gagged so i may actually puke- thats......great
96Owltherian
Looks like im close to having a fever- 99.4 was my temperature & i hope it goes by quick

98Owltherian
Thanks! I'll try my best!
99Owltherian
Wow- i slept for a while
100justchris
>99 Owltherian: Hope the sleep helps. A fever generally means not a cold. Not just fluids, but electrolytes. This is where Emergen-C and the like come in handy. I hope you recover over the weekend. Take care.
101ReneeMarie
>80 Storeetllr: I feel your pain.
102Owltherian
>100 justchris: Ive slept for quite a while, and last time i checked my temperature was 101.0, which means i definitely have a fever & i have to stay in my room all day, which i don't care as much its just i need to get food somehow.
103Owltherian
Horray!!!! My temperature is 98.1!!!! i sound like a robot though :/

Updates:
We have no jello or pudding sadly, but i am going to at least try to eat biscuits & gravy. But I'm happy to say the fever is gone! I still have to isolate myself just in case it comes back though. Im wrapped in a blanket, although I'm freezing.

Hi Owl, I am sorry you are not feeling well. I hope you are able to take care of yourself and your symptoms and feel better soon.
110Owltherian

118The_Hibernator
How are you feeling today?
119Owltherian
A lot better, still coughing, but not as bad! I also don't have a headache, and my nose isn't that stuffy anymore

Possibly, but that specific brand has a no-return policy which is quite annoying, and the sizes go off body type.

After you pressed the search button there is a list of results on the right site.
Click on the fitting link and the book is in your library.
I hope this helps...

This is a Thread in the group wiki that explains quite well what you can do in your thread.
Edit:
Sorry, it didn't work the first time, it should work now.

Thank you Thomas

That's quite a long list of pronouns. I tend to default to they/them in a situation like yours. It has a nice ring of familiarity to it.
186Owltherian
Well i use any, so i listed a few! The only pronoun sets that i don't like people calling me is she/her & he/him.
187Owltherian
I'm extremely overstimulated in this class and she doesn't allow headphones and she is playing music in the background while people keep laughing and talking and I'm shaking really badly...

Book #27: The Ghosts we keep by Mason Deaver
198Owltherian
Today I am not going to be online as much, due to how busy today is for me. I have a chorus concert and I have to be there at 6:30 pm EST, and then before that, I have EOCs which I have to be in for about an hour so I will be extremely busy.
199Owltherian
I know what im going to do today- try to reread (read last year) the How To Survive Camping series by Bonnie Quinn
200Owltherian
People need to figure out better insults for people, 'emo trash' isn't really what i am haha, joking about my dogs being dead wants to make me cry though
201paulstalder
Hej Owl, just flying by - and hoping your dog is doing fine.
202Owltherian
Three of them are, but the other 3 passed a while back
203paulstalder
Oh, you've got so many. are you breeding dogs?
204Owltherian
Nope, two are my uncles dogs (2 year old great dane & pitbull) and then my grandparents have a 8-9 year old golden retriever
205Owltherian

Im sorry but im going on a mental break from this site, i need to rlly work on my spiraling mental health and another site has made me rlly stressed and to the point I'm close to deleting my account and i have already been kicked from 3 groups, so that's why I'm leaving for a bit
214Storeetllr
>213 Owltherian: Yes, social media can be stressful. I know I have to take breaks from it too. Relax, take some time to care for yourself so you can come back all refreshed and ready to dive back in. {{{hugs}}}
217Owltherian
I will be gone for 3 days! I will post updates after the 3 days are over :)
219PaulCranswick
>213 Owltherian: Take care of yourself, Lily. Your friends will still be here when you come back. x

Keep taking deep breaths and remember that you are allowed to control your feeds!
222The_Hibernator
I loved Rot & Ruin
223The_Hibernator
Also, I just saw that idiot who attacked you on Paul's thread. Ignore their negativity. You're fine. I don't know what that was about.
224Owltherian
>223 The_Hibernator: I dont know why people dislike me so much tbh its literally just 5 comics- its not like all i have read is comics
225Owltherian
*sigh* Guess I can come back not even 2 days early
226avatiakh
Hi Lily - Just saw your posts and hope you will be back once you've recharged.
Please remember that you've had so many members here who've given you positive encouragement and so many of us appreciate your presence on our threads. Don't be turned away by one bad apple.
I really liked Rot & Ruin as well. I adored Stardust, both the book and the film.

>226 avatiakh: I dislike the book, but i liked the film a lot more, and i have the whole Rot & Ruin series now.
Its way more than one bad apple, even in another group i used to be told to kms, although i have never listened to them and blocked & flagged them.

Well, I’ve read and posted my share of comics over the years. Read what you like and we’ll enjoy your comments on whatever you read.
229Owltherian
>228 drneutron: My favorite comic i got has to be the Hellboy one, since my brother & biological mother like it and they rubbed it onto me haha
230Owltherian
I honestly might as well stop my break even if i didn't fix my mental health as much as i wanted to
231Owltherian
The comics i read so far:
MARVEL VOICES
Spiderman
Barkham Asylum
MARVEL VOICES
Spiderman
Barkham Asylum
232Owltherian
I dont even know if i add those to my book list or what- if so then 33 now
233Owltherian
Hellboy comic is now finished :) so 34
234PaulCranswick
>232 Owltherian: No rules, Lily. Include them if you want to.
A bit harsh to say that the comments made over at my amounted to an attack on you but I think you will see by the responses in support of you that the 75ers is the right group for you to be in!
No rules about posting here and particularly over at my thread so long as we are all respectful of each other.

236PaulCranswick
>235 Owltherian: I wasn't only referring to you as being respectful, Lily. I meant all of us. I don't think that you have ever posted anything disrespectful that I have seen.
Some people may get stressed by your angst and some may welcome you sharing your thoughts. I think that I have proven to be in the latter group.

>236 PaulCranswick: Yeah, i dont post disrespectful things, and i try to think before posting, thought it was a little clear when i didn't.
Possibly, but most ignore my thread entirely, which i don't really mind.

241PaulCranswick
>239 Owltherian: Hahaha its ok. We all do that sometimes. I couldn't keep up with all of the people here when I was 14 for sure. Oh wait.....we didn't even have personal computers then. :D
Just chill a little. I think that the goodwill for you in this group is overwhelmingly positive.

243Owltherian
My new thread is up!
244The_Hibernator
>224 Owltherian: no, it was a very odd comment. First of all, comics are read by a huge number of us here. I don't like them because they don't flow right to me. I'm more interested in words than the pictures, and the pictures are often vital to the story. I especially had trouble with Sandman, by Neil Gaiman, which I have started 3 times. Though I did get through the Deathnote Manga and a good deal of the Amulet series until they had to publish another, and I lost interest by the time they finished the series.
245Owltherian
>244 The_Hibernator: I have started a few manga's and yeah its mostly Tokyo Ghoul and stuff
246BostonTeaParty1773
>27 Owltherian: okay buster
I really like some of these, I saw Pod watcher and Are You Scared so how familiar are you with Ryan and Shane? because some of the shows are amazing and I cant discuss them without sounding insane.
Chucke sandwich is also pretty good, I like jschlatt
also I saw Murder, Mystey, and Makeup do you also listen to dark history? because based on some of this stuff you might like it but idk
