  • I miss pagebound club in my home feed

    First of all, thanks for creating this space on the internet! Pagebound feels more and more like a safe place of refuge, the app and page I turn to when real life and the other internet spaces gets a little too much.

    I suddenly realized I hadn't seen any posts from the Pagebound club in a long while, but then I remembered not seeing posts from the club in the home feed being part of an update some time ago.

    So, fully aware that you might go mad from always having people wanting different things, and sorry about that, I just wanted to voice the suggestion of letting users choose themselves whether to see posts from the club in their home feed or not. I would really like to, at least. (And sorry if there are other posts about this already!)

    I really appreciate the discussions not directly related to single books, so I'll try to remember checking in on the club myself as well. And of course there are more important features to prioritize than this one.

    Thanks again for making this space, and thanks to everyone for making it a pleasure to stop by :)

    The idea of the houses being built on top of other houses such that the basements now were once the roofs and ceilings of older houses they are built on is so interesting! I’m very curious about this world that’s being built here.

    I am a purposeful slow reader even when I come across a book I'm so into & could devour in a day or two. But, I am also a sentimental junkie that I want to stay in a story for as long as I could so I end up taking my sweet ass time to read šŸ§šā€ā™€ļø

    Of course, the end still comes no matter how much my heart should be used to it 😭 Just curious if anyone has felt a similar way for a certain book(s)??

    What. The. Hell. Somebody please feed me antiparasitic meds. I have to say that I probably would've rated it higher but the ending was deeply unsatisfying to me personally. I can't help but feel that it was all pointless and for nothing. Also, some things feel a bit unrealistic - like hello, has nobody here ever heard of insurance?
