  • Who’s Who Wednesday part 11

    Hiiii It’s time for Who’s Who Wednesday where every Wednesday we introduce ourselves and make new friends. This is part 11. I think

    If you participated any of the times before, you don’t have to introduce yourself again but you can share some different facts about you, an opinion you have, or how your week is going.

    If you’re new, introduce yourself!

    I’ll go first.

    My name is JadeLovesBooks

    It’s cold AF here in Pensacola Florida and I am cranky because I hate the cold (edit: it’s not really that cold here I’m just dramatic. Reading about everyone here in SUPER cold weather makes me want to clarify this 💀 )

    I’ve been spiraling for two days bc my school sent me a notice of academic probation and then 2 days later said they made a mistake and I’m actually doing exceedingly well. Thanks. I’ve literally not been sleeping.

    I like white cake with white icing. Preferable fluffy icing. Like whipped. Not the super sweet kind. Also my family makes banana pudding. Like, a lot.

  • specific romantasy recs

    so i've read a few romantasy books so far and the genre doesn't seem too bad but all the one's i've seen have absolutely diabolical age gaps. and as someone who loves elves, fairies and vampires, i'm sure you see the problem. are there any of these sorts of books without a 500+ year age gap romance as the main thing?? preferably also without a 18-19 year old fmc 💔

  • The Odyssey
    Nervous but Intrigued

    I really want to try reading this book but I suck at reading classics usually because the language is way too verbose and confusing. Is this book like that? Or is there a better version/retelling?

  • Why are there so many people downvoting lists?

    When I go to look at the new lists, there's almost more with negative votes than positive ones 💀. I think this tendence can be intimidating for new users.

  • Bookish travel

    I was watching a friend pack (not a bookish person) and was thinking of how you would pack for a trip as a book lover. I'm struggling at what I would bring with me.

    When you travel, what bookish items do you Travel with? I'm think probably my eReaders and my bookish totes for book shopping would be good. Can't be bringing 60 books with me.

    What do you guys bring when you're traveling?
