...often people think this book was prophetic but George Orwell was writing about his own time. It's not prophetic. We keep making the same mistakes and the same mistakes lead to the same kinda of problems. It's not prophetic; it's observational.

Everyone has at least one favorite book from their childhood that they cherish forever, or that one book as a young reader that got you into reading into adulthood? What was yours? (I'll be adding them to my tbr, for real.) My favorite book as a young reader was A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray and her Gemma Doyle Series.

When you go to a book’s page, is there a way to see more info about the book beyond the jacket blurb? Mostly I want to see the publisher and pub date but like Goodreads also shows like page count, edition info, genre info, etc. I’m wondering if there’s a way to see all that here

So excited, I planned on starting this and WoT in November-ish! Any suggestions for the first crack at it? I've heard Guards Guards is a good starter for disc world.

I'm looking for recommendations of your favourite books set in non-English as official language countries (that was a complicated way to say not US, Canada, UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand). Any genre is welcome.

What is the book you're looking forward to read after your current one?

Following the post on bookmarks, I wondered where was your favorite place to read? In your bed? In your garden? Tell me! And why this place precisely? Personally I have two favorite places. In my bath and in my bed. Because my room is my favorite place. And in my bath because I feel comfortable in the water

i want to thank Pagebound for being an anti-Ai book app. it's constantly frustrating (mind-boggling? disturbing? infuriating?) to see other book apps and book spaces utilizing Ai. i've said it in another forum, but idc, i'm an Ai hater til the day i die. however we want to also support other book apps (except Goodreads, never Goodreads), it is refreshing and reassuring to know Pagebound is one of the last spaces untouched and i'm sincerely grateful

Some genres just don’t get enough attention, whether people think they’re boring, confusing, or just not for them.

Hello, I was wondering if you all prefer ebook or physical book and which you use most. I have a kindle but barely use it, I recognise it is pretty convenient, especially when travelling, but I simply can’t get into it. Any advices?
