Pakige is scheduled for delivery today. A real physical book. I don't use them very often these days.

My birthday presents from Mum should be arriving soon. I'm getting the last three Mass Effect books I don't have. Still need to read the huge omnibus comics that I got for Christmas... last year? The year before? Oh well. What book did you get?

busts down door I heard someone say Mass Effect

Which ones did you get?

Eyy Mass Effects buddy!

I got Retribution and Deception (I know they're marked as pretty bad but I love a train wreck!) and Annihilation for Andromeda.

I haven't read any of the Andromeda ones yet! I should get onto that.

I didn't have much of an issue with any of the books tbh, I thought they were fine! Or maybe I'm just biased because I love the game so much 😄

I think there was just lore inconsistencies with... Deception I think? The one not with Kai Leng. There was a huge Google Doc about the issues.

Book deliveries are a joy. The new book smell!
What'd you get?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

well, it's a library book so no new book smell included. A rather heavy tome on Soil Conditions and Plant Growth.

That's even better: old book smell. ♥
I see you're in druid training!
