So I am thinking about starting a second round of Around the World reading (the first I did with folktale collections). And since I love reading women's memoirs and (auto)biographies, I was thinking about reading one from every country. And since PB has such a nice international community, I'm going to ask: if your own country (or culture!) was represented by a woman (who has a memoir/diary/bio published), whom would you recommend for me to read? (I read English, Hungarian, and Spanish)

I'm fascinated by astrology and the concept of the "Big Three" in a chart. I started thinking about it in the context of my reading experience and was curious what others would say!

☀Sun: the genre the world associates with you, usually your most read or most talked about in your reading lifespan ☽Moon: the genre you might not broadcast to the world, and people may be surprised you read, but find yourself drawn to or curious about ↑Rising: the genre you resonate with the most, or the genre your reading taste is evolving towards

How do y'all find the self control to stay away from tik tok and actually read your books. I feel like every time I sit down it's just easier to sit and doom scroll than it is to read and I want to get away from that. I'd delete tik tok but it's so hard since I get so many good book recommendations there.

Hi everyone ☺️

I was doing some research on pregnancy books, but websites and list always show the same book “What to expect…”.

So I was hoping maybe some of you could help me by recommend me some books about the subject, on pregnancy, maternity, fertility, etc. 🫢

I’m not pregnant haha but my husband and I are hoping to start our family soon, so I want to do as much research as possible.

Than you for your help in advance ✨🫶🏼

I’m looking for a book with found family of a group (i.e. Six of Crows, Heroes of Olympus) where there’s some sort of quest or journey they need to go on or at least a goal they need to achieve. Any recs?
