Has there been any update to getting notifications when someone posts in an Orb you are a member of? I have kind of given up on Orbs until this is corrected since I can't click in every one every day to check. I hate to miss things!

Sorry @Bird I’d say for both admin and member?

Hi Dave @Bird yes I would say both or give the use an option as to how they want to be notified. On Facebook, there is a Follow option I think or something like it where you can be notified anytime there is a post or update to a specific group, but some people may not want to be notified for everything so maybe give an option. I agree with @Sarah though news feed goes rather quickly especially if you follow a lot of people so I would miss them almost every time.

I was forced to move to the Amazon Shopping app after they retired Amazon Underground. It's sufficient, but bass-ackwards in some ways. I avoid the app unless I'm tracking packages, I hate ordering off of the app itself. The desktop site is easier to navigate.

A classic that you have to see at least once in your life
Good direction, you get to hate the antagonists and the main actor wins your heart. Oliver Twist is a book classic if you can read the book before the movie, read it. If not, then pictured the characters as in the movie sometimes help you more.

As I said, Oliver Twist is a classic both, movie and book. You have to watch it as a must, more so, in the holidays season.

A hate to love romance that's heavy on the hate
Maddie and Theo are both close with Alexa. Maddie's her best friend and Theo is her best work bud. But they hate each other, ever since a terrible interaction that left them both offended. But when the two meet again at Theo's birthday party, they somehow wind up kissing and feel an undeniable spark. And with Alexa getting married--and Maddie and Theo the two main members of her bridal party--they are stuck together for awhile. So they agree to hook up (and hook up only) for the duration of the wedding preparations. No falling in love allowed. Right?

So this was a cute and fun entry in the series, per usual, but I did not care for Maddie and Theo as much as some of the other couples. There was not as strong as a supporting cast, either, though Alexa had some good moments. I think I cared for Maddie and Theo as individuals, ironically, but together, they just didn't get me as romantically invested. For one thing, Maddie and Theo were mean to each other! Really mean. This was haters to lovers with a lot of hate, like cringe-worthy hate, at times, and I didn't find that funny or sexy. So between the copious amounts of mean, plus secret romance hidden from your *best friend*--I was a little tense. I needed more happy go lucky romance!

Overall, this was a light and fluffy romance, but I had a hard time always rooting for the couple, and sometimes Maddie and Theo just didn't seem right for each other. I was mostly smiling by the end, but I didn't always enjoy the ride. 3 stars.

You tend to either love or hate M.Night Shyamalan's films. I'm straight down the middle with this one. Starts very slow, with a long build up to a big twist.......but chances are by then you had some idea what was coming. Worth seeing, but maybe just once.

Love - Hate Relationship
This book was a total rollercoaster. One I am glad to have given a shot, but also not one I would get on again. This book tugs at your heart strings, which I believe makes a great book. Not a favorite but it was good.

An addictive read! The storyline grabbed me straight away. This psychological thriller is full of twists and turns. One minute you feel sorry for one of the characters, the next you are left wondering! A great mix of characters some you like and some you hate. Great writing.

Album Favorite

"“I hate it when people say there’s an individual album that they really like, ’cause I always think they don’t get it like I do – I suppose everyone thinks that though. Probably Love, ‘Forever Changes’, a lot of people know about that anyway, though the young’uns might not."
