Me, plunking Stinky Bastard Man’s carrier on the counter: hi he’s here for shots and a nail trim and he’ll need to be sedated

Nurse: Are you sure? We can try-

Me: he needs to be sedated

Nurse: Well, it’ll take longer-

Me: he needs to be sedated, he will try to rip your face off

Nurse: Well we’ll try without first and we’ll let you know if we need to sedate

Me, watching her carry him away: you will need to sedate him

Nurse, coming back 10 minutes later clutching her hand: so, we will need to sedate him

Me:

If anyone tries to tell you that Shakespeare is stuffy or boring or highbrow, just remember that the word “nothing” was used in Elizabethan era slang as a euphemism for “vagina”. 

Shakespeare has a play called “Much Ado About Nothing”, which you could basically read in modern slang as “Freaking Out Over Pussy”. And that’s pretty much exactly what happens in the play.

I found the book, it’s The Countess by Lynsay Sands. I bought it on audio book and then after I finally bought new bookshelves and unpacked my books I discovered that I own a physical copy of the book…

I also found two copies of a Nora Roberts book, and two of volume 5 of Sweat and Soap, and two of volume two of Horimiya. This is why my books should always be on display.

I Can't Remember the Title

I read a synopsis for a book and I cannot remember the title. Does anyone recognize this book? I really want to read it.

It's a historical romance. The heroine was in an unhappy marriage and her husband dies. She does not want a mourning period to interfere with her sister's coming out so she puts him on ice and tells no one. Then his twin brother shows up and reveals that he is the actual duke (?) and his brother stole his title/identity.

Can’t Escape Love by Alyssa Cole.

It’s a novella from her Reluctant Royal series. Female lead is in a wheel chair and male lead is neurodivergent.

Disabled lead romance recs?

I'm on a bit of a romance kick thanks to all the holiday romances I'm reading at the moment and would love some recommendations for adult romances (of any kind) featuring a disabled lead

I'd prefer to read about a character with a physical disability rather than neurodivergence and preferably #OwnVoices but I'll consider anything (except Talia Hibbert and Helen Hoang who I've already tried and didn't really like). the queerer the better but if the disability representation is good I don't mind if it's m/f

in return, I recommend my favourite disabled romance: A Scandal By Any Other Name by Kimberly Bell, which remains the only book I've ever read with a character who has spina bifida <3

I think I would be okay with ghost kitties. I honestly assume there are some around anyway. A lot of times at night I feel my cat jump onto the bed, but then she isn't there.

Due to a lack of skill you failed out of the magic academy however you ended up starting a very successful business. In which you give people defective curses that cause only minor inconveniences. This of course infuriates your former classmates who actually graduated and are less successful.
