    I fell in love with this book so goddamn hard. I am going to drive people insane recommendig it for everything and everyone. It's ridiculously adorable, for a body horror. It's cozy. It's dark. It's deeply emphatic. It has spot on representation for ace and autistic characters. It handles abuse and trauma with care and so much empathy. It is hilarious in all its details. It is written in an eloquently humorous language, with many poignant, memorable sentences. It's perfect. And I especially appreciated the last three chapters. Goddamn, this was an adorable read. I love it so much.

  • What's the WORST fantasy series/book you've read?

    Everyone on here always recommends the most amazing books. The ones they loved, the ones that changed them.

    But give me a fantasy book or series that you wanted to rip apart- that you only finished out of SPITE

    I very much enjoy reading 1-star reviews of books to see if I would hate the book too, or if it would actually be for me. People are more honest about a book if they hated it 😆 (in my opinion)

    So give me a fantasy book you hated, and why?!

    A nice book with lovely pictures and short descriptions of various activities in the animal kingdom. Mostly small animals, beetles, snails, mice, hummingbirds. As an adult I knew most of these details but for children it can be a lovely introduction.

  • Rewriting your favorite Greek myth

    If you could rewrite and change your favorite Greek myth, what would you change? What would you have the characters do differently? How would that affect their fate?

  • What's your aesthetic? Does it match what you read

    I'm curious — considering a lot of us readers are collectors, have lots of cozy hobbies, and take care of curating a space that feels like our own — what's your aesthetic?

    I'm a pink and glitter lover, which means my kindle and Kobo are decorated with pink, and I like pink and glittery things in my cozy gaming and reading space. I think mine matches my fave genres, which is romance.

    I'm curious how everyone else is curating or decorating their shelves/reading space/ hobby space.

    And does it match what you read?

  • Future classics

    I love reading classic novels and as I was reading jane eyre today, it got me thinking, what books would you consider to be modern classics or what books do you think will become classics in the future?

    I’m really interested in seeing what everyone thinks ☺️
