One of my favorite hobbies aside from reading is language learning and it just so happens that reading helps you with that. Since I study Korean and Spanish, I usually read fanfics in both and Korean webtoons, but this lead to my curiosity for more GNs in Spanish and audiobooks in both! I’d love to hear any book recommendations in my target languages, but I also want to hear more language learner experiences from my fellow pagebounders!

If you’re on your own language learner journey, which language are you learning/have learned? And what’s a memorable book or piece of media that’s been a part of that journey? :)

Hi, lovely Pageboud community! ✨ I was chatting with a friend (who’s not on Pageboud…) about how amazing this community is, and she brought up something that got me thinking. She wondered if people here congratulate others on leveling up or earning badges just to score points for themselves, rather than from a genuine place.

Honestly, I was a bit taken aback because I truly believe in the kindness and good intentions that make this community so special.

I’d love to hear from you all. What inspires you to drop a comment on someone’s new badge or level-up post? Is it the joy of celebrating someone’s hard work? A way to connect and spread positivity? Or maybe it’s just fun to cheer each other on?

No wrong answers here... just curious to hear your thoughts and keep the good vibes flowing in this wonderful space! 🫶🏻

Edit to add: that I started by congratulating people whose nickname I immediately recognised, but now I congratulate anyone I come across because I see it as a reflection of their involvement in the community. I'm genuinely supportive of that person's journey. 🤗

listen, I just joined pagebound after seeing it come up on my insta a lot of times and I love it! As you can see I created a whole lot of lists filled with mangas lol! But it would be great if I can gather my fellow manga readers since I noticed there isn’t a whole lot! SOOO..drop in the comments your favorite manga!

Mine is Fruits Basket btw :)

What are some bookish things me and my finds can do together that’s not just hanging out and reading together or going to a bookshop? Some of my friends are seasonal readers and I dont want them to feel like they have to be reading something to talk abt books together. I saw his idea on instagram where this girl suggested a book club idea where everyone sits down together, does a little craft, and listens to an audio book together, and i love that idea, my only problem is that my friends and I all have very different taste. I’ve also thought abt doing a “diy bookmark/picnic” and will prob plan that soon (hopefully)

TLDR; Any book related things me and my friends can do together that’s not going to a bookshop, reading together, or making diy bookmarks?

What's your most favourite book from your least read genre? You don't dislike the genre, you just pick it up a few times compared to other genres.
