Here’s how it works:

Take any book you know.

Rewrite the plot (or part of it) as if a main character was posting on Reddit’s AITA forum.

Keep the AITA style: ages/genders in parentheses, dramatic setup, moral dilemma tone.

Bonus points if you make it sound petty or ridiculous while still being recognizable.

For fun, see if you can figure out other people's!

Edit: These are hilarious and I’m finding books to try. You’re all amazing. I’m living for these.

i've been mulling over this question for a few days now, so i thought i would ask all of you-what do you love about your favorite genre that makes it your favorite genre? what are the themes, elements, tropes that draw you to it? is there a specific subgenre within the larger genre that particularly pulls you in, and what about it pulls you in? what are some good representational books of the genre and/or subgenres?

there have been a few books in my small yet mighty journey of reading where i felt it in my soul that i could've DNF-ed, but i am somehow too stubborn to let a book go unfinished and just suffer from beginning to end💀 i think for me it's simply to say that i finished the darn thing and know how it ended.

anyone else?

Hi all, wanted to give you guys a heads up without sending everyone a notification in Founder Announcements 😅

• HTML embedding is no longer allowed on Pagebound. If you try to embed HTML (so think: any of those fancy tags to post an image or do text formatting) you will get an error. There's quite a few reasons for this, but the most pressing one is that HTML does not work on apps (and we are quite close to launching the PB app!)
• Markdown is allowed on Pagebound now! We use CommonMark, guide here: https://commonmark.org/help/ . This will set us up to have inline spoiler tags in the near future
• In an effort to encourage discussion, we've changed Post & Comment points. Post and Comments are both worth 5 points now to reflect the fact that comments are just as important to discussion as posts. We encourage you to check out the book forums for other posts as you read!
• Also regarding points, we will no longer award points for commenting on activity items in your feed (so things like "jennifer earned a badge" or "jennifer joined a quest"). You will earn points for commenting on Posts and Lists only (and, for responding to comments in posts and lists ofc). We want to make sure all comments and posts on PB are authentic and not for point farming ;)
• Quality of life update: when you make a post from a certain page, we now save the total page count and autofill it next time you make a post. No more flipping to the back of your book each time you want to post!

Thanks all, Jennifer

Hey folks!

Just wanted to hop in and say that I really like using the plan feature on the website, especially from an aesthetics standpoint and I hope it'll also be on the app when it drops.

Would it be possible to add a date section to the plan so we can visualise a little better when books are releasing during the month? At the moment I'm dropping back to other apps/websites that shall not be named (:P) to double check this and it would be neat to list it here somewhere.

Probably not as easy as it sounds from a dev perspective as the book publication dates are currently only listing the year but maybe it could be at the bottom of the no doubt, very long roadmap or to-do list if it isn't already :D
