I'm so excited to deep my toes into Hobb's universe! I've heard a lot of good things and so far get "Ranger's Apprentice" Vibes. That was one of my favorite fantasy series as a kid, so I hope this is even better!

What are some books and/or book series you are interested but can't get yourself to read?

I've been meaning to read Les Misérables for years now, but it's so long. I did start, and loved what I read, but dropped it, and never had the courage to pick it up again. 🥲 Babel and Poppy War are very daunting for me. I keep seeing people talking about PW here, and so I get reminded that I'm curious about it. I also want to read Malazan, but I'm convincing myself that I'll wait a few years until starting it, but I definitely will! 🤣

I have found great content creators on BookTok and discovered books that have forever changed me. I also read the worst book ever. So tell me, what was the worse rec you got from Book Tok?

No Colleen Hoover or SJM. Let's be a bit controversial

Hi! I’d love to see everyone’s shelves if you feel like sharing!

Here is my shelf: (https://imgur.com/a/8AnJNxI) And sorry I took like a million pictures I got carried away 😅 (First time with links I hope this works)

Hey, all! I use the mobile web browser for PB so I can’t easily share pictures. I want to share some pics of my shelves (and see some of y’all’s too!) would it be weird to put them in like a PowerPoint and share a link?

Hii everyone. Ive got a little idea. How about we write our favorite series / movies to watch and others will recommend us a book based on our choice? Im really looking foward to reading some of those recommendations!!

Since Pagebound I've been reading more books at once (and just plain reading more) and I've developed some habits I want to share but I also need more tips and want to hear about yours!

I read a nonfiction audiobook, currently The Palestine Laboratory when I'm walking places (mainly to the thrift store and the used bookstore where there are cats for me to pet while listening) or if I'm playing a game I don't have to focus on.

I've been reading my literary fiction, currently A Girl Called Eel while I'm on break at work - it just developed like that I didn't plan it but when I'm at work I'm drawn to my lit fic. I typically like reading my lit fic during the day - it doesn't tend to be a genre I like opening up super early or late so afternoon fits it best.

I've been reading my adult fantasy, currently Babel mostly in the mornings but sometimes staying up late to fit in a couple chapters. Adult fantasy is easier for me to get totally lost in and wanting to stay up for but the morning time calls to it for me and the vibe with my morning tea is perfect for it.

And I've been reading my cozy fantasy, currently Howl's Moving Castle as an in-between when I know I want to read but am emotionally overwhelmed from my other books!

So what's your method if you read multiple books at once? Do you break it up by genre? Time of day? All vibes no plan? I'm tempted to start even more books but I'm worried I'll get lost in the sauce.

I have seen it ALL, been there done that; from actual bookmarks, magnetic, paper, metallic, wooden to receipts and pills I will have to take later at night so I will also remember to read that chapter at the exact time. I have used my headbands, CDs or my actual bra

With a little imagination everything can turn into a bookmark

After everything I have ended up just remembering pages because I got exhausted What has worked for you??
