I find the plot lines of all the books I’ve read muddling together in my brain, and often I just forget what had happened in the book or what the characters’ names were altogether. I’ll see it mentioned months later and think “oh yeah I read that” but my mind is BLANK on what it was about?? Is everyone else suffering from book amnesia too or is my brain just toast from too much scrolling 😭😭

i just had a baby!! 7 weeks ago and my life is forever changed 💘 does anyone have fiction book recs with a main character who’s a mom?? any books i’ve found on motherhood/parenthood so far are non-fiction parenting guides but i just wanna read something fun with a nice plot and the main character just happens to have children 👼✨

I’m curious to know what romance novel, in your opinion, truly depicts two people falling in love with each other?

Whether you liked the tropes or not, whether you liked the characters or not, whether you liked the author or not- what was a book you read that made you feel like you were truly witnessing two people fall in love with each other? A book where you fully believe, and got to witness, the depths of the characters’ feelings for each other.

Three that I’ve read recently were: If It Makes You Happy by Julie Olivia Promise Me Sunshine by Cara Bastone Out On A Limb by Hannah Bonam-Young

There are soooo many other romance books that I love, but these are a couple that I’ve read recently that felt like they were very focused on showing you a love story, you know? Tell me yours!

this book is giving me acid reflux. highly recommend

So, I was wondering what are the different ways you guys discover new books. I used to get my TBR from Booktube and Instagram exclusively and now I am looking to expand that in order to discover indie and self published books or just books that interest me.

I’ve seen some discourse around authors putting their playlists at the beginning of their books— people seem to find them cheesy. I often ignore the playlist if there is one as I like curating my own. What are your thoughts on book playlists? Do you like it when it comes in the book or would you rather make/find your own? Oftentimes my gripe is that the playlists for books that people make are more just vibes and don’t actually align with characters or plot points. Do you playlists that capture the vibes of a book or ones that align with the plot and/or characters? Do you guys listen to these while reading? (for me it depends on the book and my mood).

Personally, I love when the mc or their love interest take ill and have to be nursed back to health, and all the while their partner is fretting and losing sleep from watching over them. It ALWAYS hits for me, there's just something so special about one being vulnerable and trusting their health to their partner, and the other seeing their love at their weakest and helping them in the bathroom and things of that nature and just being totally unphased by it because they want to do anything they can to help them recover. Truly warms the heart 🙂‍↕️
