I'm curious if anyone else has this problem, but I often find myself reading five or more books at once. Between library, audio, digital, and physical books, my currently reading list can get quite large. Sometimes I feel overwhelmed by it, but the thought of only sticking with one book makes me worried about getting bored. Does anyone else feel this way? How do you combat it?

Just got the galley copy, this is a thick book, 707 pages paperback (subject to change slightly). Going to probably start this soon, but trying to hold off a little since the official release is so far out but I can't wait to get back into this world!

Hey everyone, sorry for the radio silence - busy times. Holding off on posting my March progress update, because I want to include the official release date for The Strength of the Few... which should be announced around the end of this week! So stay tuned...

“What are you? A baby dispenser?” Setsuko laughed, scrunching up her nose. 🤣😅 I love their relationship so much

It’s so easy to love the characters in this book!! Each story was so real and relatable even if it’s fantasy. The feeling of regret permeates throughout the plot, but so does hope. It makes you think “so now that this happened to me, what am I gonna do about it?” I definitely wanna read the rest of the books in the series! Hopefully I’ll get to know more about Nagare and Kazu too. 🥺

Hey, I'm curious - what locations, or under what situations, are your favourite to read? As per my previous post about favourite's being hard, I don't mean you need to pick one. For example, I really love curling up in a chair I have in our bedroom when I want to read with no sound, or taking myself to a pub if I am feeling like I want human connection without having to talk to anyone other than my server. Obviously this does mean I get interrupted every once in a while, but I like the ambience (and the fact that food and drink are brought to me so I have more time to focus on reading). Oh, and I love a long walk with an audiobook. Depending on what I am listening to, I might start talking back to whatever is going on out loud (but only a line here or there, not a constant monologue). Thoughts?

Okay, so I know we all use things that aren't meant to be bookmarks as bookmarks. I used recipts, cards, stickers or really anything I can get my hands on but I've been using a leaf lately . . . A 'Wonder Of The World' leaf or a 'Kalanchoe pinnata' leaf to be exact (image belowfor anyone who doesn't know).
I forgot that this is a plant that can survive in nearly any environment and it is now sprouting new plants while inside my book 😭
I've been reading on my tab for a few weeks now and forgot that I picked the leaf as an impromtu bookmark while I was reading a while ago . . .
What was the weirdest bookmark you used? (Definitely not asking for inspiration for my next bookmark 👀 )
