So, out of curiosity, I wanted to know if any Beta readers on here count the books they beta reads towards their yearly goal. I'm on the fence and wanted to see what everyone's opinion was on the matter.
For reference I've read one book as a beta reader that I didn't mark down and have just received another one.

This was talked about in another request but I'm posting here so it has its own ticket to be assessed by J&L. It would be so cool to have a friendship journey with users the same way we can look at our book journey. That way we could keep a record of our past interactions with users, and even see if there are users we interact with regularly but didn't realise it.

Hi! Been wondering if PB has considered any sort of ereader integration. No idea what's all involved but got a little excited when I saw the upcoming Kobo/TheStoryGraph integration.

Very surprised by how much I'm enjoying this book. I nearly passed it by because of the name and cover but figured what the hell.

Is there a way to export our library and lists from Pagebound?

if so, The rook (The Checquy Files) by daniel o’malley would fit great here. both the book and the series are amazing (i actually havent finished the series yet but so far its great). and it isnt part of any other quest!
QueenOfQuietCorners wrote a review...
This is one of those examples of the quality of the writing ruining a story. I saw an editor mentioned somewhere but it needed another round of edits. Or two.
One of my biggest reading pet peeves is overuse of words and phrases. I drove my authors crazy with it when I was editing/proofreading. I’d provide counts of various words - usually filler words like almost and just - and provide some page numbers where phrases have been used repeatedly or where the same info has been stated already.
If these types of editorial things bug you, maybe skip this one. Or at least be aware so you can gird your literary loins.
The story itself is good. It just could have been much better.
