I know itās been a while since I read the first book - but I feel like the tone for this one has aged up a bit? Not that I donāt mind - it just feels different

I get my recommendations from bookstagram! And mostly from people i follow on Goodreads. And especially from here on pagebound (I'm actually seeing lot of amazing underrated books and added it to my tbr). So I'm curious to know where & how do you find books to read and add to you tbr?

A few days back I made an unrelated post and someone commented about how school had made reading a difficult experience for them. It got me thinking about how assigned reading and, well, the assignments that followed sucked the joy out of reading and how being forced to read can possibly be as detrimental as banning reading. I think schools do help in encouraging critical thinking and evaluation during reading but the stress of having to complete and submit the related work on time might lead to their idea backfiring, with students turning towards AI to form summaries and lessen their burden. I personally always loved reading and our school didn't make us memorize passages or read a certain amount at home but inferences at school, where we read as a group, were always necessary. Insights into the plot, whether we liked the ending, and character motives were highlighted in the end of year exams. What are your thoughts and what was your experience reading in school?

Those first few drawings at the beginning - starting off with Greta and Ruthven - yes it feels good to be back in this universe

I'm curious what is people's thoughts on doing a TBR Roulette? Like I've thought of doing it to mix up my reading schedule but also I feel like it may not help since I fear I'll get a book that won't incentivize me to get back into reading more. Has anyone actually tried it before and have thoughts or if you haven't done it yet would you think you would enjoy it?

I cried multiple times while reading this. Which I expected with it being about a go-between the living and dead - thereās a connection between the stories, which I always love. I also feel like the relationship between our go-between and his grandmother made me think about my own grandfather - who Iād 100% use my 1 chance to see again. Books like this make me wish it was real - not just for me, but because while itās not a guarantee that either party gets closure, I do think it could be for a ton. Either way - I loved this. Canāt wait for the next one!
