I read fairly widely but am here mostly for romance and its sub genres. Found Pagebound thanks to the Fated Mates podcast. šŸ

    Slowly making my way through this one. :) The history of punishment is pretty gruesome. :(

    A fast-paced, charming read with two likeable MMC characters.

  • Libby this, Libby that....let's talk about Hoopla!

    The library from where I'm from offers 5 borrows per month + bonus borrows. I signed up for an US library card and was shocked how different their Hoopla is. They offer 10 instant borrows, 10 flex borrows (which I still don't get what it means), 10 holds + bonus borrows. It's like I'm in heaven lol. If you have Hoopla where you're from, how does it operate??

  • Have you ever read a book because of a movie or TV adaptation?

    I watched the first two Hunger Games movies in the cinema and couldn’t wait for the final film, so I decided to read the third book in the trilogy. There were quite a few differences between the book and the movie, which made me curious enough to go back and read the first two books as well. And I’m glad I did! I like the film adaptations, but I love the books.

  • Do y'all gatekeep or share for the world?

    I gatekeep like it's going out of style, though I'm slowly sharing more books I like, reluctantly. I just want to hold them close to my chest and bite anyone who dares try to take them. Even as I'm chatting about how great they are. Is there anyone else, or do I just need to relearn sharing is caring, like a kindergartener? Edit: Alright I guess I'm just a cranky toddleršŸ˜‚
