  • Tips on how to imagine characters

    I don't know if its just me, but when I'm reading books I kind of just have stock characters from like tv shows and stuff that I imagine with the characters instead of trying to visualize them from character descriptions. I'm trying to do better but also I feel like this is just a skill I haven't build up and find I keep falling back on what I was doing before. If anyone has any ideas of how I can get better at this that would be great!

  • Show me your bedazzle!

    Hi PB!

    Have you bedazzled a book!? I did one at a local bookstore craft meetup a little bit ago and it was so time consuming fun!! It scratched that "color by numbers" itch but make it "crafty". The prefect companion for an audiobook on a rainy day.

    Here is the one I did!! BEieUUF.jpg BEierHg.jpg

    I'm OBSESSED now. 🤩

    Post yours below!!🫶 I wanna see em šŸ˜

    Edit: folks asking what supplies I used:

    1. Gem kit from Michael's (I recommend smaller size flat gems that don't have too much of a 3d profile and allow for more detail work
    2. A gem picker- wax pencil or similar tool (NOT tweezers
    3. A tray to put the gems! Some come with lines that help them lay flat
    4. B7000 very fine tip glue! Small tubes are your friend
    5. Only do a small section at a time so you can adjust and work your way around an area before it dries!

    Have fun!!!

    I... I... I loved this book. Sorry, brb sobbing because of how fucking good it was. Omfg the way Riley Hart has a way with words ill eat up her books each and everytime with a big fat smile on my face

    I loved Perry and Theo's story, and I'm so happy we got Perry's book because I really wanted to learn more about him. While reading this, I literally wanted to give him the biggest hug ever. Having attachment issues can be such a huge thing. It's hard to trust people and fully be yourself when there's so much to be scared of, and I was so happy Theo was there to help pick up the pieces and show him that leaning on someone isn't a bad thing and that he wasn't going to hurt him.

    Them meeting each other, though, was the funniest shit ever. Like, who says they want to hook up but actually means they want to hang out? I don't fault Perry one bit for misunderstanding that.

    I just loved watching their relationship blossom. Friends to lovers is literally one of my favorite tropes, and that's exactly what happened here. Just them slowly falling for each other was the most beautiful things ever like just Perry trying so hard to stop himself but slowly realizing he cant and Theo being down so bad so fast. I could go on and on about how much they connected and truly were perfect two people with the big hearts made for each other...They are genuinely perfect for each other. Also, the banter was so damn cute. Every time Perry called Theo "Puppy," I melted into a puddle literally no joke. Also love we got Perrys brother in this book it was nice seeing him and his mans happy together.

    There's so much more I could say, but I just loved them so much. ā¤ļø

    finding this hard to read casually! (complimentary) it’s just so visceral that it isn’t good at being put down and picked back up. should probably just finish it in one go at this point.
