  • Rereading debate ∞

    I have occasionally seen people say that rereading a book shouldn't/doesn't count towards your reading goal and I was wondering what people on here thought about that? Personally, I think that you're still reading a book, doesn't matter if you know the story by heart, It counts as reading and should go towards your reading goal

  • romantasy that isn't too... romance?

    hey all!! i've truly never read anything purely romantasy, everything i've been exposed to online so far has never managed to catch my interest. however i looove when it's a subplot in a serious book. like... i want the romance to have meaning within the story but it doesn't have to fit into the romance genre per se. also gahh the writing has to be good lol. hopefully this makes sense!!

    Any recs for slow reader like me?

    It took me weeks to finish a book, maybe because I read 2-4 books at once since I get bored or overwhelmed by the events in one sitting, so I take a break by reading another. Though I update my reading journal in storygraph so I could track what happened before I switched. But sometimes, I want to read a book that would make me finish it in one sitting. :c Any recommendations? Preferably, fantasy YA but can take other genres too as long as it's good.

    And you know what? I had a good time! Think Pride and Prejudice but "Mr. Darcy" has a bit of Mutt from Schitt's Creek and Elizabeth Bennet has a bit of Merida from Brave. The pacing felt a bit off in some places, there were a few predictable moments that I wished were fun surprises and a few unpredictable moments I questioned, but ultimately I was completely entertained. And if you are too, there's a whole series to dive into!

    A fascinating take on a way of life many of us have forgotten, or simply forget to acknowledge. I think about how many may come from the line of night watchers, evolved over time to find comfort in the dark, standing guard while the others in the tribe rested for the day ahead. I think about how many may feel lost because they don't fit in to the typical work day mold and do their best work at night. I think about how much of what we consider our "actual" life is actually artificial, created to force a way of operation. While this didn't convert me into a midnight walker, the lessons are universal — we are just as much a part of the dark as we are the light, and to fear or misunderstand it is to do the same to a part of ourselves.

    The way she views the world is so unique, and the way she writes about her perspective is so beautiful. She has learned there are many definitions of "power" and shares the secrets to hers with us. In the spirit of love and connection, and in the pursuit of wisdom in all forms, she walks us through her experiences as if we're old friends chatting over a delicious home cooked meal from her own garden. I felt right at home.
