what did you just do to me robin hobb. what was that last 50 pages. no yeah im totally okay and fine.

I'm a fidgeter. I'm always doing something with my hands, even while reading. I remembered I have StickyTack putty around and I decided to try using it as a fidget while I read (so far successful). But that made me wonder, does anyone else do this too? What's your favorite fidget or way to calm your hands while you read?

Hihi! After seeing reels about PageBound on socials and having a friend recommend it, I decided to pop over! I love seeing people chat about things they love, so I figured it could be fun :) After being a super avid reader as a teen, I ended up taking a years-long hiatus from reading to pursue other hobbies despite my utter love for books. At the top of 2025 and after a lot of procrastinating and failing, I decided to take a leap of faith and dive into Babel by R.F. Kuang, mostly by intrigue of the front cover illustration and the book flap synopsis/blurb. It was difficult, I won't lie, it's a really dense book to try to start out with after a while of not reading at all, but it did kickstart my first reading year in a while and I ended up really liking it! Maybe conquering a book of its length made me feel brave enough to keep going~ For anyone who's dealt with prolonged reading slumps/hiatuses, I'm curious, what book sort of brought you back into reading again? Is there a particular reason why that book did it for you?

hey all!! i've truly never read anything purely romantasy, everything i've been exposed to online so far has never managed to catch my interest. however i looove when it's a subplot in a serious book. like... i want the romance to have meaning within the story but it doesn't have to fit into the romance genre per se. also gahh the writing has to be good lol. hopefully this makes sense!!
