Just curious about what books you think everyone (or most everyone) should read at least once? For me these are books that are thought provoking or give me a worldview different from my own. Ex I often think Concrete Rose by Angie Thomas or Fahrenheit 451 should be required

Does anyone have any good tips to overcome a reading slump? I haven't been able to read past 30 pages in monthsss

I'm sure I'm not the only one, but I have the hardest of time accepting to DNF a book. Most of the time I keep being stubborn, cause what if it gets better? Okay I'm at 70% and it's still not great but I've come this far, might as well finish it?? Please tell me I'm not alone in this😂 So! When do you usually realize your current read is going to be a DNF? Is it vibe based? Or is it more like if certain criteria aren't met by a certain point it gets the boot? What are your tips and tricks to DNF'ing? My TBR is too long for me too keep pushing through books I should've DNF'd, I need help🙏

I sorta started this book on a whim but I am FLYING through it. I'm loving the eerie atmosphere and how little the characters know. I almost worry that if I keep reading and start getting to the parts of the book that explain everything, then I won't enjoy it as much since the suspense is so well done early in the book. Also, if you've never read a book while listening to some background ambiance on Youtube, this book is perfect for some eerie forest or cavern ambiance.

I am the sort of person who cannot spend a minute of their life without music playing in the background, and this is especially the case when I am reading. Do you read to a soundtrack, and if so, do you gravitate toward a specific genre? I sometimes like to pair book and music genres — indie pop for light lit fic, folk or country for pastorals, classical for, well, the classics. What do you listen to, and do you find certain music a distraction?

What is one popular book you've read and didn't like, where you didn't get the hype or don't understand how many people can genuinely like it? I'll go first : Le Petit Prince I've never understood how everyone loved the book, as a kid I was forced to read it every year and go to see plays about it and until today I don't understand the hype.

I was inspired to play a game with y'all after I heard a couple patrons at my library talking about misreading some of the titles of items on display. Figured it would be good for a laugh as well as a way to discover an item or two for our TBRs! Dragon Writers of Pern > a series exploring the trials and tribulations of draconic authors trying to get their work published. Obviously cozy fantasy (Original: Dragonriders of Pern by Anne McCaffrey).

Is there anyone whose books you immediately pre-order before barely checking what they're about? For me it's: - Kristen Britain - Lucy Holland - Adrienne Young - Laini Taylor

Are you a mood reader or do you strictly abide by your TBR for the month?? I have a monthly and yearly tbr and I seldom follow it 😆 I'm afraid I'm a notorious mood reader ✋😭

Ahh booktok, so controversial. But we love it anyways hehe. Because I thrive on highly opinionated discussion, please don't hold back! (BUT, because we are all kind, educated readers, let's not be hateful towards people who have different opinions than we do ;) That being said, I'll go first: *inhales slowly* Fourth Wing is meh and Iron flame was almost impossible to get through... the hype, I just don't understand it!! Please tell me I'm not the only one.

Do you guys own many books? I never did growing up because I went to the library. Even now,I only buy books that I have read and loved. But seeing people on social media's own walls full of books has made me curious about other people's habits. So, I would love to hear about your habits. Do you buy books right away? Do you read all of the ones you buy? How many do you own/do you get rid of many?

I’m struggling so hard to continue to read this 😭

Curious what people think the best book to movie adaption of all time is? For me, I think it's gotta be Harry Potter--made it somehow even more magical!
