Recs if you like The Reading List...

Book titles that illustrate things Pagebound users might do or say, or titles that might describe the app or its users. Recommendations are welcome (this is meant to be fun, please do not suggest titles that are rude or aggressive)!

This list is not a commentary on these books---the focus is purely on the titles!

Bibliophilia at its best - books about books, readers, libraries, bookstores!

Books don't just sit on shelves and these novels show it. Each one is its own love letter to the importance of stories in every corner of human life, built on the belief that the right book, in the right hands, at the right moment, can change the entire shape of a life. (Always taking recommendations!)

Beautiful books for when your monthly reading roundup needs a little facelift 😉

Does what it says on the tin (or the back of the book?). This list is specifically about the people who make libraries work as well as libraries as a concept, but not books that only use the library as a setting for a novel (there are other amazing lists that already do that!).
