Hey pagebound! What’s your favorite genre to read?

What is one popular book you've read and didn't like, where you didn't get the hype or don't understand how many people can genuinely like it? I'll go first : Le Petit Prince I've never understood how everyone loved the book, as a kid I was forced to read it every year and go to see plays about it and until today I don't understand the hype.

Sometimes I feel like I'm not a true reader because it does take me a little while longer to read compared to so many ppl I see on social media or even my friends. I have always been a bit of a slower reader.

Finished book two! I remember as a kid rolling my eyes whenever Scarlet's story was taking place bc i just wanter more cinder but tbh i enjoyed this! Def not as much as cinder and i don't like the romance as much but it had a lot of great moments and mystery unraveling.

Do you prefer to read physical books, ebooks or listen to audio books? I tend to do a mixture but lean towards ebooks (and then go buy my book trophy!)

my brain is so thoroughly unscientific that i just called myself a genius for remembering the composition of water

Pacing feels kinda off for me but I'm enjoying it nonetheless 🫶🏼 i love sunho sm

Are you a mood reader or do you strictly abide by your TBR for the month?? I have a monthly and yearly tbr and I seldom follow it 😆 I'm afraid I'm a notorious mood reader ✋😭

I’ve started pre-selecting a monthly tbr for myself this year and with finding this wonderful community, I’m curious how other people pick the books they’d like to read during a month? Or if you don’t, how do you select what to read next? I try to pick a mix of books that have been on my tbr for a while and new books just to keep things different but series also cause a bit of an issue with that system 😂

Do you guys own many books? I never did growing up because I went to the library. Even now,I only buy books that I have read and loved. But seeing people on social media's own walls full of books has made me curious about other people's habits. So, I would love to hear about your habits. Do you buy books right away? Do you read all of the ones you buy? How many do you own/do you get rid of many?
