  • Start with Brandon Sanderson

    I want to read pure fantasy (without romance drama) and I know Brandon Sanderson is the king right now of the genre, but I feel lazy about starting a heavy lore (fantasy books). Any recommendations to start with his books to adapt myself into a new world?

  • How do y’all balance reading with real life?

    Like, I want to read 24/7... but also I've a job and responsibilities. Tips? Time management hacks? Do I just give up and read at 2 a.m.?

  • Wrapped

    A book wrapped would be so fun some day! We could see what genres we read that year, the average book length, if you did any rereads, finished series, what badges you won, etc. It would be super fun to see your yearly stats and everyone else’s (Honestly I think everything should have a wrapped: most watched movies this year, 14th rewatch of your favorite show, bottles of wine purchased, all of the things! I want a highlight reel of my life.. sorry about that tangent)

  • it can't just be me feeling this right? 👀🎧

    Like...are y'all also feeling paranoid listening to audiobooks these days and thinking they used AI? I had to stop listening to The Book of Love audiobook recently after my husband said "you know that's AI" right and I realized then that I'd had this creeping feeling already but ignored it.... IDK....anyone else feeling this? It's ruined the audiobook experience for me so that now I just listen to classics in that format

    Fredrik Backman did it again. But unlike the first short story I read from him, I’m honestly struggling a bit more to understand what’s going on in this one. That said —his writing, the reflections, the questions he raises
 it’s giving me all the mixed feelings.

  • Dev Update! (07/14/25)

    Hi everyone! Here's a quick list of recent quality of life updates + bug fixes: - The most obvious: you probably noticed your feed is flooded with "badge earned" updates. There was a bug where, when a book was added to a Main Quest, those who had previously joined the Quest did not get credit for reading the newly added book. I fixed this bug and earned out badges for everyone (hence the feed getting flooded!). If you see anything still incorrect on your profile, email me at team@pagebound.co - there was a bug where the Edit option for your Reviews did not consistently show up in the ... (three dot menu) on the review card. This has been fixed! You can now edit your review anywhere you see it. - various infrastructure updates to help with server crashes + load times as we've seen a ton of growth on Pagebound over the past few weeks :) and of course, still working hard on the app! Our plan is to release to our first round of beta testers this month and publicly release before the end of the summer. Appreciate everyone's patience on this! On the bright side, there are TONS of updates on the app that address many feedback concerns we've seen lately :) Lastly, it's been so exciting to see all the new readers join us! Huge thank you to everyone who has sent good vibes, welcoming messages, and answered questions. This community is truly the best. Happy Reading 💙💜 Jennifer & Lucy

    I couldn’t do it. I genuinely couldn’t. Honestly, the only thing even slightly worth salvaging —and even that’s a stretch— is the “Juramento Hipocrático” poem.

    The potential this book had đŸ˜©â€Š What ruined it? That desperate attempt to sound poetic —and ending up just plain pathetic instead.

    This is hands down the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever read. I’m just not connecting with the author’s writing, and honestly? That makes me kinda sad. But as a med student, these medical references? They’re laughable —like, totally absurd. It just pulls me right out of the story every time.

    This thing I’m reading? Yeah
 it’s not lyrical. Not even close. The metaphors it tries to pull off using illnesses and medical terms? They’re just not well-developed. Maybe to someone who doesn’t study medicine it sounds deep or poetic —but trust me, it’s not. I’m not saying you have to be a med student to write about medicine, but at the very least, do your research.

    There’s something I don’t get —and maybe it’ll be explained later on, but like
 How did Voldemort kill himself and his parents?? What spell did he even use to leave his body and end up with another one? I don’t know if I’m making any sense, but I’m seriously confused here 🧐

    I told myself I wasn’t starting it today because I seriously need to study... but I couldn’t help it 👀
