Is there any specific books that you always relate a very specific place or moment in time? For me I always think about being stuck in the house on vacation when my parents were away when I read The Stranger,or my art teachers house when I read Martin Eden bcs she was the one that lent it to me. Or the stool on my middle school volleyboll field when I read The Plague Now that i write this I can think of so many more

Anyone else doing dracula daily this year and wants to do a read-along? It's still a good bit off, starting on May 3rd, but perhaps we can get some people together.

For anyone who does not know it, find out more here: https://draculadaily.substack.com/about

From the website: "Bram Stoker’s Dracula is an epistolary novel - it’s made up of letters, diaries, telegrams, newspaper clippings - and every part of it has a date. The whole story happens between May 3 and November 7. So: Dracula Daily will post a newsletter each day that something happens to the characters, in the same timeline that it happens to them."

Hey frendos!! How are we all finding the new year? I hope you've entered 2026 with some joy & rest!

Would any of you be interested in doing a Color of Magic readalong/buddy read? I've seen the miniseries but have not read it yet, so was thinking of starting it the first week of February (2026). This is very flexible if others wish to join but need more time to clear current reads or acquire a copy.

If you're interested, either as a reread or finally getting to it yourself, please let me know & if the first week of February works for you!

Edit: I will post again with updated time lines tomorrow, but we are a go! We will start in February and go through March, but of course read at your own pace, and if you need to start earlier or end later totally do! 💕

Ive never really read 2 books at once but am seeing so many people now reading not just 2 but like even 5 with audiobooks and I’m curious how yall keep them all straight? I’ve only really tried when I am bored of 1 but don’t want to give myself burnout of the story. But maybe others need more than one story? Or like mental multitask more idk 🤓 Or does it take triple the time to finish’s them all and yall happy confused too 😭 maybe it’s to make the story live a little longer which I validate omfg! Idk any advice or why u enjoy?
