I am just not getting into this at all. I know The Ex Hex was pretty popular, but maybe I just don’t like Sterling’s style of writing? I feel like nothing is happening and like I don’t have any connection to the characters right now. Also I feel no tension because the inside of the cover blurb basically told me the entire first half of the story it seems like. So I feel like I’m just waiting for things to happen because I know they do. And not in the fun way like when you reread a book and you’re excited about it but also excited about the journey to get there

Do I need to give this more time? Also I’m wondering if reading the first book would’ve helped? I think I might have picked up the first book at some point but I don’t think I finished it if I did. And I may have not started it at all 😅😬.

I feel like so far Sanderson is writing in kinda Jay Kristoff style? Chatting with the reader, asking ironic questions. This style matches the vibe perfectly

Hi loves! I've been thinking about this for years now, but in these past few months it just became a more real thought: i would love to open an Instagram account just about books, and my thoughts about them and such. I also write (I've never published anything, just wrote on my pc my whole life) so I would love to share something of mine on there, but primarily I would love to create an account where I could write and share pics and thoughts about life and books and such. What do you think? Would you like it/ follow me? I'm audhd and super shy and scared of put myself out of my comfort zone so yeah, just asking your thoughts ✨️

Any advice on how to get into audiobooks/podcasts? I can never seem to concentrate long enough and then I tune back in and have no clue what just happened 🫣

Edit: Wow! Thank you for all the advice it’s been so lovely reading through them all! I hope other people are finding this as helpful as I am! Please free to keep commenting tips and tricks!! ❤️📚

Guys I love reading ARCs but chilling in an empty forum is so weirdddd! I’m just going to post anyways and then discuss in a few months 😭😭😭

What was your favourite book for September? What was your least favourite? How many books did you read?

What are you planning to read this month? Are there any books releasing this month you’re interested in?

Is anyone else doing the 52 book club challenge ? If you don't know what it is, it is an annual reading challenge with 52 prompts related to characters, settings, genres... More info here on this year's prompts

It is my second year partaking in it. But I am pretty behind schedule this year, I have only 23 prompts out of 52 secured...

What book made you fall in love with reading? As a kid I caught the reading bug after reading books by Jacqueline Wilson and the His Dark Materials trilogy by Philip Pullman. As an adult I fell back in love with reading when I discovered romantasy and read Fourth Wing, ACOTAR, and From Blood and Ash.
