I need a page-turner book and a non-fiction going at the same time. Here to read obscure treasures from little free libraries and snoop your favourite reads.

  • Typos and spelling mistakes

    I’m really happy to see that others make as many spelling mistakes or typos or other grammatical errors here on Pagebound as I do, and no one gets called out. We just seem to mostly type and chat and carry on. (Admittedly, i often do go back and correct some of those mistakes…because my perfectionistic tendencies override good sense.) All in all, I think we’ve struck a reasonable balance.

    Thoughts?

  • Slow or fast reader?

    Are you more of a slow reader or a fast reader?

    I feel like the book space is filled with fast readers but I'm more on the slow reader side, it takes me between a week to months to finish a book, depends on my mood mostly and probably the lack of time (college+work).

    I can read a book in a day if I'm super into it but that also would take me a minimum of 8 hours for a book with around 400 pages, depends on the font size. Just wondering if anyone else here is like this or just wants to share their reading pace :)

    This book took a bit to capture my attention. The writing style felt simplistic like the reflection of the age of the characters, but it never grew more complex. The plot is excellent - full of drama and heart and reality and satisfies loose ends. I really felt the tug of the main characters emotional state in a way that kept surprising me! Highlights, were some really cinematic moments. Lowlights was how it was slightly repetitive in order to tie sections of the story together. I might not reach for this author again but I would re-read this innovative story.

    I would live to see this prom scene directed in film. Maybe this whole book could make an incredible tv series.

  • guys recommend me a starter romance book.

    i’ve been a reader for a loooong time and recently made a condition with my bestie that if i start gymming with her, she reads a book of my choice for every week i show up diligently. guess who just finished their week 1. 💪💪

    i thought ali hazelwood is a good starter romance for her but she’s a fashion designer girlie so maybe stem series might not be her thing. but then again, anything i look at seems to me she wouldn’t enjoy it since she’s not really a reader. at best, she’s read all the compulsory readings in school and never touched a book ever again in her life and i wanna change that. make myself a diy book bestie eheheh jkjk.

    please gimme your personal suggestions and faves that you think would interest a non reader, thank you ! 🫶
