  • What's a trope you just don't like?

    A few days ago, I asked people to share their favourite tropes.

    Today, I ask the opposite.

    What's a trope you just don't like? You can think it is overdone, or just that you don't see the appeal. You can give your reasons if you want.

    I think we can all respectfully dislike a trope.

    Have fun!

  • Throne of Glass (Throne of Glass, #1)
    Thoughts from 1% (page 6)

    I always find SJM books so hard to start for some reason... but have promised a friend to complete Throne of Glass. I am interested to see how it goes.

  • Percentage Update for CR

    Tbh… I’m not a fan of the percentage update while reading. I don’t get the hype 🤷🏼‍♀️ I think it’s more work than necessary. I totally get the reading list updates, or reading goal updates. What does everyone else think?? What am I missing??

    I’m curious why it was important enough to be added

  • Let's see what the favourite trope is!

    List your favourite trope.

    If your trope is more niche, feel free to define it so others can know more about it! Can be common or niche tropes!

    Beneath it, put your favourite book recommendations for that trope!

    Let's see what tropes are the most popular on this platform!!!

    Probably my least favorite Ali Hazelwood. Didn’t love the world, felt like so much world building was missing. I didn’t like the characters much either.

    Super cute, bodyguard romance with a writer who has no filter when he is curious about something!

    Can I mute a book I've read?

    I accidentally read a very popular book, and I didn't much like it. The problem is that because it's so popular, it's taking up about 70% of my feed right now. I disagree with nearly everything people say about it (I won't say which book it is so I don't start an argument that boils down to taste being different, lol), and it's getting a bit much.

    I figure it's rude to ask people to stop talking about it, so I'm wondering if there's a way to mute a book? Or do I have to delete it and lose my progress on a badge I really wanted? :')

    EDIT: I have no integrity, so the second someone asked which book it was, I told them. Sorry.

    I feel like the pacing was a bit off, but it was such a cute story!

  • Libby’s new feature for inspiration

    Has anyone tried the new feature in Libby? You insert #inspireme in the search function and it will come up with a set of choices available in that particular public library. It eventually narrows to about five or so choices.

    I picked “fiction” for “adults” that is “rogish” and a wide variety of categories across multiple genres were provided. From that list I chose “scoundrels gambling, scheming, and seducing in Regency London.” All the choices seemed to fit the bill, and I’d read none of them before.

    It was fun, and (IMO) a lot better way to use AI than trying to use it than creating new works in creative spheres. I suspect if I’d been in the library itself though, I might have preferred speaking with the librarian. Well, at least if it wasn’t romance I was looking for (you know: stigma, misogyny, and all that).

    Edit: I should add the books were all available immediately.
