    Chaol in this book has just made the decision of the tandem read for me. As much as I like a cliff hanger, I can't handle a whole book of him... Just being him, I've never wanted to reach into a book and slap someone so badly in my life 😂

    Evangeline is a smart girl with strong & accurate instincts but acts otherwise 🥲 (pls tell me it gets better I love the fantasy touch in this series it feels like a fairytale)

  • Why Did You Pick Your Pagebound Avatar?

    I’m curious—how did you decide on your avatar when you joined Pagebound? I originally picked the goth/emo-looking girl because her haircut was similar to mine. I almost went with the little green witch because she has such a cool vibe, but in the end, I chose my current avatar since I’m a total sucker for romance books. Don’t be surprised if I switch to the little green witch at some point, I just feel drawn to her! I’d love to hear your stories! Did you pick your avatar because it looks like you, fits your favorite genre, or just because it’s cute?

  • Comfort reads

    What are your comfort books/book series? The ones that you read multiple times and will do multiple times more? And why is it this book/book series?

    Trying Not to Cheat-Read (But Failing)

    Sooooooo excited to start this book! My husband and I are going to read it together, but I’m already low-key regretting that decision. I know, I’m the worst—we agreed to read a certain number of chapters per week, but I just want to devour this book!

    I’m just gonna complain for a second. This book is soooooo slow, and the text way too small. My eyes are getting worn out from just a few pages 😭 I may need to check Libby to see if a kindle version is available because I don’t know if I can keep reading the physical copy like this

  • Reading Again & Book POVs

    In 2025 I set a New Year’s resolution to read more after attempting to do the same in 2024 and failing (it happens 😌). I used to read a TON when I was in middle school and into high school and then kinda just stopped and hadn’t picked up a book again until 2024, when I read maybe 2 books for the whole year. Happy to say I’m on my 12th book of the year and I am falling in love with reading again 😌 and I think I’ve learned I really love books with multiple POVs especially when they are intertwined with each other and you are seeing the same story in multiple ways rather than just getting one story from different people. Does anyone feel the same? Does anyone feel differently? Does anyone have any good recs? There isn’t really a genre I won’t try once 😉 p.s. I do attribute my reading success this year to this platform and look forward to seeing it go further!

  • QODT: Which book setting would you love to live in for a year? And be honest... do you think you’d survive? 😏

    Asking because I kinda love post apocalyptic worlds, and I feel like I wouldn’t be the first to go! But let's keep the zombies far away lol

  • What's your most anticipated book release of the year?

    As of right now, I'm really excited for Atmosphere by Taylor Jenkins Reid. A book set against the backdrop of the 1980s Space Shuttle program seems right up my alley. I'm also excited for The Knight and the Moth by Rachel Gillig because I absolutely loved the Shepherd King duology. Excited to hear yours, hopefully I'll have more to add to my TBR :)

  • So This is Love
    Finished It! A Fresh Take on Cinderella That I Loved 💙

    I’ve read three books from the A Twisted Tale series, and this one is my favorite! Cinderella has always been my favorite story since childhood, and I loved how this book balanced the classic tale with a fresh, slightly more modern twist at the end.

  • Tracking Resources

    I'm curious what services/apps/resources everyone uses in addition to Pagebound, if any, to track their reading. I personally made the transition from Goodreads to Storygraph a few years ago, and I'm still using it in addition to Pagebound to get information on my reading stats. But does anyone have any nifty apps, resources, or personal methods they've found fun and/or useful for tracking various aspects of their reading?
