Pitch black recs

Recently started reading this genre and I'd like some recs with a strong female character / female character development with the most diabolical revenge arc at the end. I am loving the 24690 series by A.A. Dark. I need hope for a happy ending otherwise I can't stand it all. I also like nivels with excellent prose, plot, pacing, grammar, and over all writing. None of that tiktok bs please.

Conflict in Love and Death

Pitchblack novels are sick. I feel the need to speak to a therapist or psychologist because in as much as I freak out over these situations, I cannot put the book down. I am reading 24690 by A.A. Dark right now and I am traumatized but also i can't put it down. I took a 4 year hiatus off reading and I just got back into it. I usually kept it cute with dark romance with the darkest series I'd read at the time being The Life of Anna.

In big 2026, a new can of worms has opened thanks to reddit. I can read anything so long as it has a good plot, prose, grammar, and an adequate length. No fanfiction.

Point is I am scared of who I might become as I go down further into the rabbit hole of pitch black novels. Like I can see these things in my head. At first, I was truly terrified and im not ashamed of skipping the parts that I know I can't handle. Nonetheless, tis very dark and I'm kinda used to it now. That scares me.

Just got to the part where she gets her lick back against the husband. Why am I so happy? Why is this my favorite part of the book? I'm legit giggling and can't keep the smile off my face. Hence the question, is this sick? Is getting some sort of satisfaction out of this a sign of mental illness? I have to finish the novel but should I be reading more of this? I love a good revenge arc and when it's done in a way that equates or even surpasses the tortures a victim has been through, i am even happier. It's better than my birthday ( the best day of the year for me). But I digress, girlies please educate this hon?

NATIS Learner's Test - Okahandja

Guys, the test isn't difficult. These are the resources I used to pass mine on the first attempt:

  1. Road signs in the learner's textbook - know as many as you possibly can by reading through and writing them down

  2. K53 blue app and the one with South African flag - also a means for practicing and memorizing questions. The blue one also had a summary of the various rules which you can read through to reinforce your memorandum and ability to answer the questions.

  3. MOTUSK53 - question bank that gives you multiple opportunities for free.

  4. AI to help explain each of the answers for further reinforcement.

I did all the above in 24 hours, passed and got my permit that same day. Why bother with the lines and disorganization in Windhoek when you can easily get it all done in a day?

Apartment in Ongwediva

Hi, I will be moving to Ongwediva for a year and would like to get an apartment. A one bedroom flat is preferred but I have no problem with a two bedroom one. If anyone happens to know an agent or are privy to any listings in the area, please share that information below.

Are the Colours of Evil movies directed toward a Polish audience?

I just watched Colors of Evil: Red (CER) and are currently watching Colours of Evil: Black (CEB). I paused the movie just so i could post this and before i proceed, i understand that this is a movie so life could present differently. Nonetheless, I'd like to ask why the movie directors keep having men profess their feelings in situations where women are vulnerable. In CER, the girl ends up dead in this particular situation. I don't understand why the film keeps pushing this? Are men in Poland prone to these habits? I only ask because i hope that its an epidemic in Poland so the film makers wanted to raise awareness for the citizens of Poland. Otherwise, the movies are sad as is.

I don't understand the push toward this particular topic. I am vehemently bothered because it's so selfish for movies that are focused on getting justice for the victims. Am i supposdd to forgive the guy in CER because he wanted to report himself? All the while his father refers to the incident as an "accident"? If men still behave in this manner irl in big 2026, i don't even know. The crux of it all for me is that do we really need to have vulnerable women take on even more pressure from men who think their feelings matter at that point? Monika nearly gave in and even posed a number of excuses.

You could argue it was necessary for the ending to play out as it did. But did i really have to see that same bs in CEB? YES, i think I've taken it personally. But objectively speaking now, were those scenes necessary? I'd like an objective answer from a film analyst. Just so i can understand what those scenes bring to a story that is already so tragic.
