I swear some of y'all can speed read (not a bad thing) and maintain so much detail. It will take me days to a week to get through a 400 to 500 page book and I will miss so much context sometimes. I also find myself sometimes becoming easily distracted when reading slower parts of books which definitely extends my reading time. Sometimes I just can't focus on whatever is going on and then will need to reread the parts. I'm reading for enjoyment of course and the discussions here, but I find myself feeling inefficient, which shouldn't really matter but I was curious what everyone's strategy was to read so quickly. I feel like some of y'all will start a 500 page book in the morning and have a detailed review by the evening, which is awesome and I need to know your secrets.

Curious what people think the best book to movie adaption of all time is? For me, I think it's gotta be Harry Potter--made it somehow even more magical!

I have two: Dogsbody by Diana Wynne Jones (every damn time I read it😭) and Dancing After TEN by Vivian Chong (which is not my usual genre but wow it packed a punch). What books wrecked you emotionally??

So do we know Vis’ status or how people get certain statuses? It seems to work like a Caste system if I’m understanding correctly?

I'm in disbelief that chapter 1 was just 16 pages because I swear it took almost an hour to get through. Every other sentence I was taking notes trying to acclimate to all the different terms used and piecing together some understanding of the world and characters we have so far.

just had to do a reread after finishing sotr

I still can’t believe that people think that breaking the law equals death being warranted. What does it matter if somebody is dealing drugs? If I skip class and convince other people to do the same, does that mean I should be expelled? We live in a backwards disgusting society.
