    Would Dracula or Frankenstein be eligible for this quest? I'd say they're classics!

  • Audiobook activities

    What do y'all do while listening to audiobooks? I have a brain dead job, so I'm usually listening to podcasts and audiobooks while I'm working or commuting, but sometimes the book is so good that I continue once I get home.

    Some of my absolute favorite audiobook activities include gardening, cooking, baking (I have a cake side hustle), and knitting (I'm currently knitting a blanket). I would just love to hear what others like to do, and also if there are things that you find too difficult to do while listening to a book. For example, if I'm making a new recipe I have to pause the book, or else I find myself not being able to follow along.

    Also also, any of y'all able to just sit and listen? I find that totally wild (but also a little awe inspiring).

  • The Booktokifiction and Being Well Read

    https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8SoKELr/

    What do people think of the TikTok above!

    I agree with everything. I sometimes find recommendations on booktok/gram a left to be desired (and undercounting of bipoc literature )?

    Would love to know your opinion ?

    Why do you read ? Is it just an escape or something else for you

  • Just starting

    I’m new to the app but romantasy is my favourite so I’m excited to get into this and have a little challenge. It will probably take me a while though!

    What's your book diet? 🍜🥗🍕

    When it comes to genres I read I'd consider myself somewhat of an omnivore. I think there is barely any genre I don't read or haven't read. Obviously I have preferences as everyone does, I read a lot of fantasy, a bit less of science fiction, and nonfiction makes up around 1/4 of my annual reading. Still, I love a good thriller, some are very close to my heart, and a cozy crime or romance book can be a great read in between heavier things! I've been fascinated by historical fiction like Ken Follet's, and sometimes I dabble in literary fiction or horror (although I draw my line there sometimes). Comics are a beautiful art medium and if you give me a Manga I'd probably try it out even though I haven't read one in 10 years, and I think middle grade / YA books can still be a great read for adults!

    So, I'm curious to hear how it is for other people, cause my friends are sometimes a bit shocked when I tell them abt all the different stuff I read ^^ I still think there are probably a lot of people that read as diversely as I do, if not even more!

  • Are you a polyreader?

    Are you one of those people who only reads one book at a time or do you have a bunch on the go at once?

    I think of myself as a polyreader (and I blame it on my ADHD). I have 14 on the go at the moment, although one of those is a reread. If you do read more than one book at a time - do you ever have problems picking up from where you left off?

  • Book post titles

    How do you prefer people to title their book posts? I’ve found that naming what chapter you’re referring to is the most helpful to me because page numbers and percentages vary depending on how you’re reading. A descriptive title is sometimes helpful if it comes with a more clear identifier like chapter or page

    I was just wondering because I’ve seen some variety and have found my preference and wanted to know yours :)

  • Picture this! 🌌

    It's a beautiful night, 45°F, the air is crisp and fresh, and you're standing outside with your family watching the Northern Lights dance between the clouds🥰. It's wonderful, I can't wait to read tonight, I only wish I had a skylight to watch them while I read.

    Who else is a night reader?

  • Reading to Practice a Language?

    hey all! i've been doing my best to practice my german in more practical ways (aside from just conversation) - does anyone have tips for picking out books that'll actually help me practice without overwhelming me? like... should i go for YA books? books i've read in my native language already? certain genres? accepting general advice, but also if you happen to have any specific authors in mind for my particular language, i'd love to hear that too :)
