    Possibly Rereading

    I read this book and book 2 many years ago but never finished the series (I never got the book from the library) so now I’m thinking of rereading them and reading the new ones especially since I’ve only seen the first movie.

  • Are you a picky reader?

    Something I'm curious about: do you find it easy or hard to find books that you like? How do you categorize books you've read?

    I'm interested because I'm such a non-picky reader it's a bit ridiculous. For example, in my mind I categorize books I've read like this: Books that I could relate to on a very personal level (rare) Books that I hated so much I felt they were a waste of time (rare) Every other book

    In the last category there are of course differences to how much I liked the book, but it's very rare for a book to be so bad that I DNF it or put in the hate category. I also often read books I know I wont even enjoy, for example I've read almost all of the Bridgerton books, although they are such garbage I could write multiple essays about it, and I cannot for the life of me understand why I didn't stop reading after the first one!

    For this reason I think it's sooo hard to rate books, which I think is also why I never joined other book sites before PG. To me most of the time a book is a book so I don't really know how I should rate it and I think I just enjoy the act of reading, rather than enjoying the actual book if that makes sense??

    In a way it's nice though, because I always have something to read since the book doesn't even have to be good!

  • Preferred Way to Read a Series?

    With all the new people joining because the app is up and running (Yay!!!) I wanted to put a question out there:

    When reading a series do you prefer to space out your readings (either with just a few days or an extended period of time) or are you a binge reader for series?

    Personally, in the past I’ve been a binge reader! I love sitting down with a series and flying though the books. Still am to some extent, but since joining Pagebound I’ve been trying to read more variety so I haven’t been doing whole series at a time. It’s definitely a different experience, and I’m still trying to decide which one I prefer so I’m curious what everyone else thinks!

    I had no expectations for this book because I don't usually read contemporary romance, but this is actually proving to be really good. Whenever I see the name Clementine on the page it reminds me of the kids books, but I love the development so far. Despite the fact that nicknames in books are usually cringe, Lemon is really cute ❤️.

    Unpaused after my buddy read told me we could keep it up... I understand the hype, but I truly believe I'm just not feeling it, it is catching I admit that, but I don't know if I want to read, at least, two more books to finish this whole thing
