I know it's still early on in the book, but I'm struggling to enjoy. The writing is amazing, but I feel it is a slow start. Should I hang on and keep reading?

What is something you've read in one or more books that have made your expectations of it, in real life, higher? I'll go first, how guys in books treat their significant other and how most friends are there for each other in a way you don't often see irl

I can’t believe I only found this site an hour ago. It’s wonderful. My most favourite thing is the Reddit aspect- I love the upvotes and character profile pictures. I also enjoy that you can be unknowable. Just a little book worm tracking her books with no drama✨

What is something you find underrated? In anything, books, genres, main/side characters, tropes, mini-tropes, writing style, plot-twist, etc...

I feel like it can be quite hard to know where to start with trying new genres or even sub-genres, so I thought we could help each other out! I am a fantasy reader, but I'd really like to try some contemporary romance, specifically sapphic contemporary romance. Let me and others know if you have any recommendations, and don't forget to ask for some of your own! Please respond to others requests if you have good recommendations!

Hi everyone! Here's a quick list of recent quality of life updates + bug fixes: - The most obvious: you probably noticed your feed is flooded with "badge earned" updates. There was a bug where, when a book was added to a Main Quest, those who had previously joined the Quest did not get credit for reading the newly added book. I fixed this bug and earned out badges for everyone (hence the feed getting flooded!). If you see anything still incorrect on your profile, email me at team@pagebound.co - there was a bug where the Edit option for your Reviews did not consistently show up in the ... (three dot menu) on the review card. This has been fixed! You can now edit your review anywhere you see it. - various infrastructure updates to help with server crashes + load times as we've seen a ton of growth on Pagebound over the past few weeks :) and of course, still working hard on the app! Our plan is to release to our first round of beta testers this month and publicly release before the end of the summer. Appreciate everyone's patience on this! On the bright side, there are TONS of updates on the app that address many feedback concerns we've seen lately :) Lastly, it's been so exciting to see all the new readers join us! Huge thank you to everyone who has sent good vibes, welcoming messages, and answered questions. This community is truly the best. Happy Reading 💙💜 Jennifer & Lucy

How did you get into reading? Was it something you've always done? Or did you pick up a book randomly and never looked back? What has changed since then? I started getting into reading around July 2023. I used to hate it because it reminded me of school and assignments. Then I discovered the world of romance books and I've been reading constantly since. It's also made me a quicker and better reader. Although since starting university, I've been correlating everything from my lessons into the books, so it makes my brain work overtime when I read a dark romance book 💀

If you could read any book again for the first time.. what book would you read? Mine would be A Ballad of Phantoms and Hope

What is one popular book you've read and didn't like, where you didn't get the hype or don't understand how many people can genuinely like it? I'll go first : Le Petit Prince I've never understood how everyone loved the book, as a kid I was forced to read it every year and go to see plays about it and until today I don't understand the hype.

I mainly read fantasy (all age groups) but my favorite sidepiece genre is nonfiction animal books. I know that's kinda broad but I mean nature books, and memoirs from people who work with or are otherwise close to animals. What are yours?

I thought it would be kind of fun to see where in the world people are, and then folks can make friends with people from the same countries/ares (if they way, not pressure obviously). I'll go first. I'm Canadian, and more specifically I am in British Columbia (Vancouver Island if you want to get fancy. Try to find your country and join that thread! Everyone else?

This post is coming to your from a tiny, backyard pub that only seats three people, but since the owner knows/loves me, it has four bookshelves. What are some fun places you have read at? (If you want to see the Frogmore Pub, I just posted a couple pictures to my Instagram, and I have definitely posted more in the past. I use the same username there.)

I was inspired to play a game with y'all after I heard a couple patrons at my library talking about misreading some of the titles of items on display. Figured it would be good for a laugh as well as a way to discover an item or two for our TBRs! Dragon Writers of Pern > a series exploring the trials and tribulations of draconic authors trying to get their work published. Obviously cozy fantasy (Original: Dragonriders of Pern by Anne McCaffrey).

Do you prefer to read physical books, ebooks or listen to audio books? I tend to do a mixture but lean towards ebooks (and then go buy my book trophy!)
