  • Forget TBR, what is your TNR?

    TNR as in to NEVER read. This post was inspired by a random tiktok once again but it made me wonder which books you guys never want to read? And why? Maybe even for petty reasons? For me it's definitely any book by Colleen Hoover. Never read a book, never will - thanks to random internet people.

    An interesting read with a valuable perspective. It was a quick read, though a little predictable at a few points. I liked reading it!

  • Annotation Mannerisms?

    Here is the scene: Your very good friend purchase a book that they believe both of you will enjoy. The friend then reads said book & annotates it for you. Upon finishing the book, they then send it to you as a gift.

    Here is the question: While you are reading said gift-book, would it be rude to annotate alongside your friends original annotations? Responding to their notes or adding onto their theories? Are there “proper” mannerisms or etiquettes for reading an annotates book?

  • Counting Comics??

    Okay, so ya girl is Comic Book fiend- DC, Image, Dark Horse, etc. Typically I’ll read comics as I buy them, which means, oftentimes, I’m reading them in the middle of other books & in between. Recently, I got an entire set of 2 completed collections, a Catwoman Murder Mystery series & a short series by Neil Gaiman (tbh I heard he’s supposed to be canceled but idk why, the short series was free though). Should I count them?? Does PageBound have a way of counting individual comics or series of comics? I know they do graphic novels, but these series haven’t been adapted into that formate yet. If not, is there a way for me to enter them? I do know if GR has them, then PageBound can warp it over, but I’ve never used GR before. Also, if this isn’t something that PageBound has, would anyone outside of myself be interested in being able to add individual comics? Half curious & half looking for other comic fiends to befriend!!

    xoxo💥

    Enjoyable & cozy read, easy to digest, with characters that are likable.

    I ranked the plot a 3/5 because it’s set up so the reader cannot accurately deduce who the killer is. You’re given 1 hint, which was a bummer.

    Still a fun read though!

  • Witchy books

    I tried my best to find a list of non-fiction books for witches (crystals, tarot, astrology, general witchcraft, etc.) but the closest I got was about the history of witchcraft trials. Would anyone be able to point me in the right direction for any book recs or lists? Thank you 🫶
