I'd just really love to see some happy things, so if you're up to it, can you share with me something that was great about this week, or something that made you smile today? I'd love to hear!

FlameOfFrost commented on a post from the Founder Announcements forum
Hi everyone! We have submitted the app for app store approvals, so it should be publicly available very soon 🤞 In line with that, we have some very exciting design updates to share.
A new logo You’ve likely noticed the new logo and Pagebound icon, now visible on web. Since our app and website design are sisters, not twins, we redesigned the logo to tie both together. We won’t be changing the web design to match the app, so you can choose the experience and aesthetic that you prefer. We think each design suits its interface well, while retaining the whimsy and magic that is the spirit of Pagebound.
We also wanted more flexible and beautiful iconography that could work across app, web, socials (and that would look really cute on merch! 👀), and we’ve definitely achieved that with our new PB icon. We worked with illustrator Mariam Chagelishvili to create it and are thrilled to share that you’ll see more of her work soon…
Updated avatars (with new ones to come) We are excited to announce that we will be rolling out additional avatars for you to choose from—these “avatar packs” will be unlocked with each level you achieve on Pagebound. Check out the 2 new avatar options with Level 2 👀🎉
We’ve always known that as we grew, we’d need more options—lest every single comment come from the ghost 🙃. With Pagebound’s rapid growth, we’ve outpaced my ability to keep up with drawing new avatars. I’m happy to share that Mariam has taken over avatar creation and deserves all the praise for the future avatar packs releasing soon as well as the revamp you may have noticed to your current avatar. Through the lens of her own style, we asked her to preserve the essence of our OGs while creating a design system flexible enough to fit new concepts (ps I cannot wait until we release our cute vegetable pack 🥕)
We hope you love these visual changes that are a marker of how far we’ve come and how much we’ve grown!

This book hits extra hard after our own recent pandemic and subsequent quarantine, and that certainly helps understand how isolating humans can be. It also shows how resilient we can be, and how we can find hope in the hopeless. The quality of the writing is gorgeous, but the existentialism of the themes make it a depressing read. That does make it very reflective however. I understood what it was putting down

Although I just know having knowledge of chess would make this book all the better, I am still really enjoying the games as someone who doesn't know a lick about the rules. The games play out like battles in my mind, with knights and kings and queens all slicing and clashing swords. It's exciting!

A pretty regular thriller book, but still enjoyable! I enjoyed it plenty enough and kept going back, but it feels like one of those forgetable ones that will get lost in the mix of all the others of this genre. The author did a great job of making me dislike most of the main family, but not necessarily in a bad way, their flaws are the main focus so it's good thing really. The plot was pretty regular, I felt like it tried to do some big twists but they were, for the most part, predictable. Although some of the reactions had me gasping!
