    Does anyone else feel weird when Koen calls Serena ā€œkillerā€? It reminds me of an adult talking to a kid like ā€œhey champ, you did greatā€ and it always takes me out of the story and romance!

    I’m reading this book shortly after having read the first one, and part of me was wishing there were chapters from Beth’s and Gwen’s perspectives and their scheming in this one. I miss them 😩

    Ok wait this is actually so cute. The characters are really well drawn. I feel like I know them already. The audiobook is peak. And actually centering a queer relationship? Bridgerton could never.

  • New Feature: Track your reading progress 🄳 (app update required) [10/10/25]

    Massive quality of life update coming your way!! We're dipping our toes into the stats waters with this one.. you can now update and track your progress on your current reads!

    Click the progress bar below your current read on your home page to update progress. You can edit your progress for the day until midnight, and a status update with your reading progress will be added to your feed and shared to your followers :) This status update is the perfect place to add a comment for more personal updates that will be shared only to your followers.

    Some notes on the nitty gritty:

    • An app update is required to see this on iOS/Android!! Please update your app version (especially if you're seeing a weird "unhandled resource_type" message in your feed)
    • only 1 update will be added to your feed per day per book when tracking progress (if you’re reading multiple books, one update for each book can be added to your feed). If you update your progress later in the day, the existing feed activity will be updated with the new progress.
    • We are now passing your local time to our servers, which means you can edit that day’s progress until midnight local time for you and your start/finish read dates will reflect your local time rather than server time

    We're working on home feed controls and updates to the Pagebound Club and Discuss tab next!

    Happy Reading, Jennifer & Lucy šŸ’œšŸ’™

  • Top emoji in reviews

    I’m a little nerd who loves stats especially my own personal stats. I don’t know that I’ll actually sit down and do this. But I was just thinking what is the top emoji I use when reviewing books on here and what would it say about my reading habits. If you were to predict what emoji you use to review books the most, what would it be? Do you think you lean towards books with this emojis vibe or is it a happy coincidence? I know for a fact that a lot of my recent reviews have 🌲🌳 trees and an animal or two. I do think I’ve been intentionally leaning towards books with a connection to nature and animals recently. I think it’s really nice to read about spring and summer while it’s getting very cold and dark here in the uk.

    I listened to the audiobook narrated by Ethan hawk and he did an excellent job, the emotion the different voices, it was so immersive and compelling.The characters are so charming and silly while also being wise and profound. They use their privilege and power to protect their friends and what they care about. This book has made me want to buy a portable cd player so I can own the physical audio book. I think this is possibly my favourite book this year if not ever! This is one of those middle grade books that doesn’t patronise or sugar coat it for the reader and that would be highly enjoyable for all. Add it to your tbr I dare you!

    Bonus emoji of šŸ€ because as much as he complained he played an important role. This is a book I started as a child and I don’t think I ever finished. I wish I had but I’m also grateful to have read it at any point of my life. I understand why it’s a classic and it’s one of those stories I can’t wait to read/listen to again and to read to my (future) children and see them hear it for the first time. All the characters are so lovely and Wilbur is just a baby I too would spend my life protecting. I listened to the audiobook narrated by the author and he did a great job /gen. Just so so lovely. A great book to give perspective of life and to remind you to stay another day.A new all time favouritešŸ’–

    My favourite thing about the audio book was the bird song, little bits of music and soundscapes. I thought the characters were sweet and I really loved their connection to the natural world. I do feel like the adventure dordled a little bit/got slightly muddied with the side quest but at the end of the day it’s a book aimed at children. I just slightly lost track of some of the animal characters because they were a bit brief in appearance. I really liked the authors note keeping the magic alive and all the things to look out for in spring. Overall a sweet whimsical story.
