    What do you wish to see from this book if you could?

    I keep seeing reviews of this book being absolutely insufferable, which, makes sense to me because the main character was never meant to be liked, it was kind of the whole point of the story. So objectively, I just want to know how a story about an insufferable main character female character constantly whining about her privilege can be made better? Do mark for spoilers 🫶 (I actually enjoyed this book despite it draining me! There were some parts that were meh especially the final parts of the book. But generally I thought it was a good read.)

    DNF?

    I’m think about it, I’m just not feeling this book, idk. I have a hard time letting go of things 😹 I’m way to apprehensive to just DNF it… maybe I’ll just pause it? šŸ˜®ā€šŸ’Ø

    For my inaugural post on Pagebound and the first for this book: I really love the way Liane Moriarty writes her characters. I always start one of her books thinking I can’t possibly remember all the characters, but she writes them so well it becomes easy.

  • Stats and Wrap-ups?

    wildestfire's post below made me think of this! Does Pagebound have any method of tracking daily reading stats, or is that something that could potentially be added in the future? I know you can post in book forums with the percentage of how far through the book you are, it would be cool if that info could be compiled into charts and monthly wrap-ups and fun stuff like that
