Hi everyone! I’m new to pagebound and loving it so far 💛 wondering if there are any quests catered to asian literature? I couldn’t find any and thought it would be a good inclusion. Been meaning to read more asian lit books and having a quest would definitely help with that. Otherwise, does anyone have any good recs for asian lit? :) ps; looking for new friends here too!!

What does a book have to do to earn that from you?

Hello, I was wondering if you all prefer ebook or physical book and which you use most. I have a kindle but barely use it, I recognise it is pretty convenient, especially when travelling, but I simply can’t get into it. Any advices?

I usually go and read reviews of my completed books, sometimes to see if I missed anything themewise/plotwise, but mostly for the fun of it. Now I can't even get through some of the recent reviews without visibly CRINGING at the blatant AI. Can we just have one thing that is not touched by AI in this hobby??? I've seen it on here. I've seen it on GR. I've even seen it bookstagram captions. I mean, is it really that serious???? I get it, I find it hard to articulate everything I felt about a book in a few paragraphs. But the idea of using AI to do so just fills me with secondhand embarrassment. I would rather write a corny ahh statement like “I couldn't put this down!” rather than resort to asking chat to write a review?? The tone is always so unbearably positive, and the sentences all follow the same formulaic wording, it is nauseating. Even if all the points brought up are good, just reading those generated reviews takes away any joy I had in reading. I wish people who did use it knew how obvious it is to spot an AI post. I mean, you are posting this review to be read by people who love to read? You don't think we can recogbise wack ahh AI slop when we see it?? Embarrazzing.

Is there a way to sort our followers? I like following people back and it would be nice if I could have my most recent followers first so that I can go through them instead of having to scroll and find the ones I haven't followed back. It's not a big deal if there isn't. I was just wondering if there might be an easier way!

I joined page bound three days ago and am loving it! But not seeing a ton of romance readers like myself. So please say hi in the comments so I can follow you & get my rom recs 💕💕💕

Was wondering if you ever come across a book with a dull or not that best story line but the narrator was so good at what they do that you didnt mind listening to them even though you would have otherwise dnfed the book?

i want to thank Pagebound for being an anti-Ai book app. it's constantly frustrating (mind-boggling? disturbing? infuriating?) to see other book apps and book spaces utilizing Ai. i've said it in another forum, but idc, i'm an Ai hater til the day i die. however we want to also support other book apps (except Goodreads, never Goodreads), it is refreshing and reassuring to know Pagebound is one of the last spaces untouched and i'm sincerely grateful

Following the post on bookmarks, I wondered where was your favorite place to read? In your bed? In your garden? Tell me! And why this place precisely? Personally I have two favorite places. In my bath and in my bed. Because my room is my favorite place. And in my bath because I feel comfortable in the water

How has everyone's June been? Read anything good? My favorite so far is my reread of the Outsiders since it has been my favorite book since 8th grade when I had to read it!
