I thought it would be kind of fun to see where in the world people are, and then folks can make friends with people from the same countries/areas (if they way, not pressure obviously).

I'll go first. I'm Canadian, and more specifically I am in British Columbia (Vancouver Island if you want to get fancy).

Try to find your country and join that thread!

Everyone else?

hello fellow readers, white person here ! i’m on a mission to better educate myself on racism. i’m working through the feminism without exception and justice for all quests for books that touch on racism, but i wanted to see if anyone had any specific suggestions. i’m looking for literally any book, any genre that will help me understand what it’s like to be a poc/woc and/or how i can be a better ally—anything that will better educate me (:

[M]y coffee is Blue Mountain and I drink it black, which is unusual for a teenage girl, but it's definitely the way good coffee should be drunk if you have any respect for the bitter bean.

Preach it sister!

I feel like every reader I talk to has a different definition of “cozy”! 😂 I think about the discussion of The Spellshop and how some people got stressed out because the stakes went up… or how since it included political and societal collapse it’s NOT cozy at all. I’ve even heard it to describe books like The Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi and others I would NOT define as cozy at all.

I wonder if some people mean “whimsical,” or others mean “low-stakes,” and still others mean “fun.”

At this point I’m not sure how I would define “cozy” 😂 Help me out here! What is “cozy?”
