Anybody not a fan of writing reviews or just me? Lol I wish I have the energy to write reviews every time I finish a book but my attention span is so bad that by the time I finish the book, I already forgot a chunk of it. That's why I really love the forums. Write as you read.

I feel like everybody is rushing to read books now for their yearly goal Im trying to take my time for KING IF ENVY rn because I have WAITED for that one so much. And im ACTUALLY enjoying it a bit more than usual Do yall think that our reading goals is actually breaking our pleasure of reading???

There are a lot of questions about book recommendations or favorites, but what is the book(s) you absolutely feel repulsed by whenever you see it? Just want to add: i know everyone has their own tastes and that does not mean if one hated the book the other shouldn't has terrible taste, it is the matter of personal opinion. What doesn't sit well with me might be perfect for you :) this is just for fun and to know you all a lot better

Hey everyone! I’ve never really read horror before, and I’m super curious about it. I usually lean toward all kinds of genres, but I feel like crime and mystery come closest to horror in terms of atmosphere and suspense. What I find tricky, though, is imagining how a book can create the same level of fear or tension as a horror movie or game—where the visuals, sounds, and music all come together to build that spooky vibe. With books, it’s just the author’s words and my own imagination… which might actually make it even creepier? 😅 Soo, do you have any horror recs that are good for beginners? My boyfriend owns Carrie by Stephen King—would that be a decent place to start? Would love to hear your thoughts! Thanks in advance for any suggestions! 📚✨

This picked up very quickly and is keeping its pace. The story flows pretty well with the background and details without getting too lost.

What the title says! I personally used to only read one book at a time until VERY recently - like the other week, lol. I used to worry about my attention being divided, but someone on here suggested that as long as they were two different genres, it would work out okay. So, I'm trying it out with the Hunger Games series and (currently) What Moves the Dead. If you read more than one, do you have a method to it? Can you read twenty fantasy books at once? A fiction and a non-fiction? I'm curious to know!

Somewhere between my never-ending TBR pile 😅 and a plan to actually reduce it this year (which... isn’t exactly going great), I’ve decided that 2025 is the year I finally read Tolkien. 💫 But now I’m stuck on the big question: 🧙‍♂️ Do I start with The Fellowship of the Ring and go straight into the main trilogy? 🐉 Or do I begin with The Hobbit? 📖 Or maybe follow the timeline of Middle-earth events instead? If you’ve read Tolkien, how did you approach it? Would love your thoughts! 🙏
