I want to read a cozy fantasy So here are my choices 1. A witch's guide to magical inn keeping 2. The irresistible urge to fall for your enemy. Which one should I read first?

Does anyone else just love the point system? I love seeing the number go up and it's also helped me get out of my shell, without it I would've probably never commented or posted and just kept to myself. And one thing I would love to be added to it is a list of how many points until the next level, because I've been at level 4 for what feels like ages 😭

I have such a hard time keeping ratings consistent between books I've read. i have a similar issue with movies, too. i continue to rate them anyways but sometimes I look back and im like, shoot. that book probably deserved one more star or one less star. anyone else have this issue? I do really enjoy page bound's rating system I have to say especially when it breaks it down into categories!! and half-star ratings. thank goodness. *UPDATE* thanks for all the helpful feedback everyone!

I don't know if it's my fault or a bug or something, but this year I've read 112/180 books for my reading goal. When I imported my data from Goodreads it didn't count all my rereads, so I made sure that it was up to date. At the time I had read around 106/108 and it was marked that I read 80/180 (on here), so it took me quite a while to fix it and I made sure it was at 106/180 before continuing. I haven't missed updating a book on here or Goodreads since, but now my reading goal on here Is 110/180 instead of the 112/180. I also can't seem to find the missing books on my goal. Am I the only one to have this problem?

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.

Colleen Hoover really said ✨plot twist after plot twist✨ and I just sat there like 😧. It’s dark, messy, lowkey disturbing but soooo addictive. I finished it in one sitting like it was my Roman Empire fr. Team manuscript or team letter?? Idk tbh!!! 10/10 would recommend if you love chaotic drama and morally grey characters.

Hi!! With so many people reading and rereading this series, I wanted to ask: what's everyone's favorite scene(s)? ***SPOILERS FOR THOSE STILL READING!!*** I have like 4/5 favorite scenes. 1) The scene where we first meet Cinder in chapter 1 - when she's taking off her baby foot before meeting Kai. I think it's a really strong opening scene, it showcases her character well and sets the scene. 2) The junkyard scene (pre-Poppy-getting-Letumosis). I love the banter and teasing between the girls and how it showcases their relationship/sisterhood. Cinder and Peony both deserved better and I wish they could've ran away together. 3) The scene where Levana is given the silver mirror on a platter and goes crazy on the girl who served her it. That scene does an incredible job at showing 1) how hated Levana is 2) her fears and weaknesses and 3) just how far she'll go to remain in power (she threatens a member of Kai's staff in a country - on a PLANET - that is not her own). Then when she offered him the vaccine for Letumosis -UGH she's so evil! 4) THE GLOVE GIFTING SCENE!!!! I remember giggling so hard at that scene. The shyness of Kai, Cinder being guarded on what he's giving her and why he's so adamant about her going to the ball with him. THE FACT THAT HE GIFTED HER GLOVES BECAUSE HE REALIZED SHE NEVER TOOK HERS OFF??? HELLO??? Detail-oriented KING! But then I was so mad when Pearl threw them in the oil... Jealous ho... 5) The ball scene! Various parts of the ball scene, too. Like Cinder walking in and being announced at EMPEROR KAITO'S SPECIAL GUEST! Him whisking her away for a dance, away from Pearl and Adri! Her warning him about Levana! HER EXPOSING LEVANA (calling her ugly or whatever)... Even the betrayal at the end when she falls down the stairs and Kai says, "you're even harder to look at than she is" while picking up her foot! I CRIED!! OMG I love this book/series

Knowing what Jennette has gone through makes it hard to look at such an iconic show with anything but sadness. What a powerful memoir and powerful young woman to put the truth out there.

Reading this for the third time, it's safe to say I like the book. All my favourite tropes
