Does anyone have a book length preference? I tend to pick up books that are 300 pages and above because I know that it’s more likely to have more world-building and character development. But 300 is my husbands limit because he can’t follow along for that long Does anyone else have these kinds of preferences??

This was a blind date novel, and it was a fun read. It was gripping and kept me wanting to read more to figure things out and piece it together. I would have enjoyed a little more closure, but overall, a good book.

I really enjoyed this book. The writing itself was simple and easy to read and very well-written. The story itself focuses mostly on the characters, which works just fine because the characters are really interesting and seem to be setting up for a plot. I did want a little more from the main character. I thought we'd get to see a bit more sneakiness, plotting and just overall bad assery which felt like it was missing a bit. It was still an interesting read with some interesting relationships being developed or shown. I did suspect some of what happened at the end, but it was really well done and I am very ready to read the next one and will be soon.

I mainly read fantasy (all age groups) but my favorite sidepiece genre is nonfiction animal books. I know that's kinda broad but I mean nature books, and memoirs from people who work with or are otherwise close to animals. What are yours?

Was thinking to myself how I have this ridiculous habit of intentionally speeding through book blurbs trying not to learn too much, leaving a book on my TBR for ages, starting to read it going off the memory of the blurb, and then being completely thrown by what the book is actually about because I realize I didn't actually know. Case in point: started the castle knoll files series today, DEAD CERTAIN the MC was an old male detective. It is about a 25 year old girl and her kooky aunt. This is abundantly clear in the blurb and I have no idea how I misremembered that badly. I spent the first 20 pages going "oh? Oh?? Oh!" So anyway, that got me thinking, do any of y'all have reading quirks like this that are ultimately harmless but kind of weird? A beige flag, if you will?

This one started off a bit slow for me, but once it began to pick up, I was invested. I loved learning about the characters, and the world with all the little bits of info we were given. I heard a lot of hype about this book, and I can see why. I’m looking forward to continuing the series.

Saw a friend post about this community and thought to give it a try. Everything is a bit overwhelming though. I got lost a bit until I luckily stumbled into this forum. What's something you wish you've known at the get go when joining pagebound? Any tips to navigate this new community very much welcome throw them all my way ;) I hope I get a grasp on how everything goes here so this won't become just another bookish related account I make!

Hiii everyone! I'm debating making a book instagram. I would love to connect with others there as well, however, I don't think I'd be "dedicated" to posting, etc. I'm not looking to become a reading influencer at all and I think I'd be too busy to really dedicate any sort of time to posting. Mainly, I'm wondering what people think of book instagrams, how they manage theirs, and if people think they're even worth it. Thanks community! <3

I really like the buddy read feature on Fable (the only reason I use that platform tbh). Are there any plans to incorporate something like that on this platform?
