Quick announcement of some smaller updates -

We have new avatars for levels 3 and 4. Level 3 has two new dragons to choose from, and level 4 has three food-inspired avatars 🥐🌶️🍚

We also have two new feeds on your homepage. You'll see your Main Feed (the normal feed you're used to), a Following feed (just activity from people you follow) and My Books (the feed that is currently on Discuss, this is just posts from books in your library). Many people have been asking for a following feed :)

In your Main feed and My Books feed, you will no longer see posts from TBR books that are marked as spoilers.

We're aware of an intermittent bug on the app when posting in the book forum (from the book page specifically). The feed updates + a bug fix for this is out on iOS, please update your app to see these changes. On Android, we're still awaiting app approval - in the meantime there is a workaround : use the currently reading card on your home feed, which has a "Post to Forum" button, to post rather than going to the book page.

For those who are married or who have a partner, what would you title your love story and what are your tropes? 💖

A couple years ago for my anniversary, I drew a book cover of my husband and I if our love story was a novel! It would be titled “Meet Me in Manila” and we used to call each other frenemy. 😂

(Book cover was inspired by Emily Henry covers!)

You can post your own bookish hot take down below. Please remember to be kind and respectful while doing so 👏🏻

My bookish hot take: Is it just me or is almost every fantasy novel har deadly trials/competitions… ballroom scene in the middle of it…?

Only someone that's vulnerable and powerless about her future would continue to work in a place where all the red flags say: go away!

So someone shared this link And it lets you upload photos and automatically created the syntax for markdown to share images. So I thought it would be fun to share photos of pets and people could give book recommendations based on the image (you could also give your own rec)

So to start this is one of my pets, mango. And I would recommend the wild huntress by lloyd-jones because there is a cat that I fancast as mango 😂

Genuine question, how do you guys feel about the down voting and also how do you not let it discourage you from posting etc?

"Naomi liked spicy food. When she was younger, she hadn't even considered food without spice worthy of human consumption"
