  • Book-related pet names 🐾

    Some highlights for our pet companions 🐾

    Now I'm curious ! Did you name your pet after a book (a character, a place, or an author)? Are there any parallels between their personality and their name ? 🐕🐈🐇

    I didn't name my older cat after a book, but my younger one definitely is ! She was supposed to be named "Rhiannon", but I read Circe by Madeline Miller and her fate changed... 👀 So, I’ve had my little Circe with me for almost three years now, and she really fits the character ! (well...a silly version of Circe...)

  • Is Bridgerton better in audiobooks ? 🎧

    Okay, so I’m a little obsessed with Bridgerton right now (especially with Benedict and Francesca/Michaela). I’ve heard a lot of people say that the books aren't really that good (if not bad), and I’m a little afraid of being frustrated by the original material. I really appreciate the show's decision to change things regarding race and gender to create an "ideal world".

    BUT, I’m wondering if they might be better as audiobooks ? If anyone has experienced the saga in audio format, could you give me your impressions ?

    I should clarify that my only experience with romance in this era is with classic English literature, like Jane Austen 👑 (and I see someone asking for "sapphic bridgerton", I looking for the recommandation under her post !!! thanks to her)

  • Reading rituals

    I'm curious, what's everyone's reading rituals? For example, I'll usually listen to an audiobook in the morning as I'm waking up and going about my morning routine. I find it less overstimulating than music, and that it helps me start the day more engaged and ready-to-go :]

    Je crois que j'aime vraiment beaucoup la manière dont Pierre Lemaitre écrit les personnages de pères.....
