I've been thinking about this for quite some time and I'm really trying to bond more with others, but I've been having a bit of a hard time with it tbh. I'm a very reserved person in general and it takes me a while to really open up to others (and I'm anxious to post this but here I go lol).
so with this I'm trying to shout into the void for others to introduce themselves! I really want to make more friends on here and would love to get to know more of you and maybe some of you can find folks with the same interests too ❤️
what I especially would like to know about you 🫵:
📚what are your favourite books and why? 😺cats or dogs? (or neither?👀)
As for me, I'm jessie from germany and I'd say I read a broad range of genres, my favourite being fantasy! I'm currently getting into robin hobbs realm of the elderlings and am impatiently waiting for dead beat by leigh bardugo to come out. Also I'm trying to get more into horror, so I'd be happy if any of you had a suggestions for me! I have japanese gothic and the eyes are the best part available rn 👀
My favourite books of all time are probably the inheritance cycle aka eragon and the mediator by meg cabot, which are both most likely very based on nostalgia but I think about them regularly lol. I also really, really love anything miss bardugo writes, but I do love six of crows and ninth house the most 🐍🐇 AND!! honorable mention to the familiar which I liked a lot too!
Apart from books I'm an avid gaming, movie and tv series enjoyer! I love anything horror like resident evil, but here I enjoy many different genres. I most recently saw the new spider-man and obsession which were both absolutely breathtaking in different ways iykyk. Next week I'm going to go watch the new insidious movie!

I am beyond meow-xcited to announce an unofficial fall readalong for the Meow-moirs side quest! If you'd like to join in, please read and discuss Into the Wild, the first book in the beloved Warriors series, between September 1 and November 30, 2026. This readalong is completely optional and may even be a reread for you (it is for me), but it'll be so fun to paw through some cat fiction together.
📖 Book details Title: Into the Wild Current PB rating: 4.12 stars Pages: 288 Blurb: For generations, four Clans of wild cats have shared the forest according to the laws laid down by their warrior ancestors. But the ThunderClan cats are in grave danger, and the sinister ShadowClan grows stronger every day. Noble warriors are dying—and some deaths are more mysterious than others. In the midst of this turmoil appears an ordinary house cat named Rusty . . . who may turn out to be the bravest warrior of them all.
Claw-ver readers should note that there is violence and animal death within the context of territorial feral cat clowders warring with each other. This book is middle grade but quintessential cat POV fiction and part of moski's Through the Eyes of Animals quest! Two-for-one quest read!
Hope to read with you soon and don't fur-get to comment if you're in! 🐾

You are browsing at a bookstore and see a cover that catches your attention. You know nothing about the author or the story so you flip a third of the way into the book. You read two sentences and slam the book shut. Shelve it and walk away. What did you read?
