We love visiting these settings in our imagination, but there is no chance we'd survive until the end of the story if we were actually there.

leitmotif commented on signey's review of Who We Are: Four Questions For a Life and a Nation
Murray Sinclair was truly an amazing man. And I also appreciated that he included the "What We Have Learned" section from the TRC in his book - it was really difficult to read at times but I feel it is also very important for every Canadian to read.

4.5 - 4.75 🌟
“Together, Canadians must do more than just talk about reconciliation; we must learn how to practise reconciliation in our everyday lives”.
Senator Murray Sinclair’s memoir, with contributions from Sara Sinclair and Niigaan Sinclair, is guided by four questions: "Where do I come from?", "Where am I going?", "Why am I here?", and "Who am I?. As the first Indigenous judge in Manitoba, the Chief Commissioner of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, and many other titles/awards, it is a privilege the read this oral history. His life and legacy highlight the challenges and possibilities ahead as he calls upon all Canadians towards purpose in a shared future. Miigwetch.
leitmotif commented on lizzyy's review of Hood Feminism: Notes from the Women That a Movement Forgot
This is an incredible introduction to intersectional feminism. It covers multiple topics that affect women worldwide in a clear and concise manner. It can be hard to read if you are not ready to face your privilege, because it lays out the issues faced by (mostly black) women, and she does not hold back when criticizing the systems that allow the discrimination of marginalized women (including the women who uphold these systems).
Kendall shares many of her personal experiences and stories from the hood to illustrate how these issues appear in real life, outside an academic setting. Which I personally love because we should be hearing from the actual people we are aiming to help.
If you know about intersectional feminism, this can feel repetitive, but I would still recommend reading it because it may help you expand your feminism even if it's just by a tiny bit.

We have a new app release available on iOS and Android as of this afternoon! Please update your apps to see the following updates (also available on web):
Public Roadmap We get a huge amount of feedback every day, and see all of your chatter in the Pagebound Club about requests and enhancements. One of our core values is transparency, and in that spirit we have released a public Roadmap to show everyone what we’re working on, what we have planned, and what has been released. Everyone can view this roadmap in the footer on web, or in the “more” menu on the app.
Official Feature Requests On the Roadmap, you’ll see a link to Feature Requests. One benefit of joining Pagebound Royalty is that you can submit official feature requests, which we will mark as “approved” or “won't do,” each with an explanation. Once work has started on a request, it will move to the roadmap. Pagebound Royalty members also have the ability to comment and like both roadmap items and feature requests. We have pre-populated the roadmap with things we’re working on through the end of the year, and added our most popular requests to the Feature Request section. While we accept and read feedback from anyone, we do not have the bandwidth as a 2-person team to respond individually; the Roadmap will give everyone the ability to see what’s coming soon on Pagebound, give us a streamlined and efficient way to respond to requests, and the feedback form is still available at support.pagebound.co to anyone.
Giveaways We've been working behind the scenes to put together a Giveaway offering which will go live early 2026. This means anyone on Pagebound will be able to enter Giveaways for physical, audio, and ebooks :) Authors of Pagebound: If you or anyone you know is looking for marketing opportunities, we'd love work with you! Check out https://support.pagebound.co/giveaways to learn more; we'd love if you shared this with your author communities as well!
Other Improvements In addition to various bug fixes, we also added a quick-link when you create a Progress Update (% bar on your home page) to add a comment to update your followers! This is a great place to share personal updates, what you think of the book so far, and quick thoughts (ex. "loving this so far"). The book forums are still the place to start more in-depth discussions relevant to the broader community.
Thanks everyone and happy reading, Jennifer & Lucy 💜💙

3.25 🌟 A fun read and connects the universe together. I'm reading out of order so I'm probably missing some details but the found family troupe centres this story.

Hello everyone. Thank you all so much for joining the Mythological World Tour. I will be your tour guide from here on. This is my first quest and I have poured my heart into this topic which is so close to me, and I hope you all will tag along in this journey.
I believe all our cultures are secretly fuelled by our myths and lores , and it is the OGs of the OGs, when it comes to fantasy. World mythology walked so the fantasy genre could run ! These are what we got handed down from our grandparents and parents as bedtime stories.
Onto the Quest itself I have tried to cover as much ground by geography as I could in our first round of books. My goal is to explore lesser known or less explored myths and folklore with this community through this quest. There were so many good picks it was hard to pick only a few .
The current list features 40 books Roughly included are : China, Japan. S. korea, India, Russia , Ireland, Greece, Greater Africa, Egypt, Indigenous, Latin America This list is not exhaustive at all. More regions will be featured as we go, along with more from the above.
When it comes to fantasy a lot of thematic exploration also draws from world history , takes liberties with it and intertwines with myths and lore. The list will mimic the same. I shall continue to make this culture map as diverse as I can. I have tried to include as many lesser known, unique books as I could , aiming for a good balance, so we can all participate together.
P. S: Please make this space your own. Make the forum interactive, leave us suggestions and recommendations and everything else in between. I am excited to hear all your thoughts 😍
YOURS, ELF
