and was kinda disappointed in the end? the whole time it was super interesting and pulled me in, but the ending felt so slapped together...? and was kinda cliched for a haunted house ending.

I must admit the whole...mushroom stuff...was...unique, at least to me. I see now there's apparently a whole sub-genre for this stuff ha

Question for all billingual readers, especially those with english as a second language. How do you approach what language to read in? I've met people who always prefer to read in english over their first language - even if the original was in a different language - and those who stick to translations only. And as an additional question, what language do you read the most in?

For me I almost always stick to the language the book was written in if possible, and if not I prefer to read in swedish, but there are exceptions to both. If the book is from a nordic country I will always read it in swedish since there's more of a linguistic and cultural overlap, for example. Sometimes it just comes down to what's available on my audiobook app or local stores. Overall I think it's about a 50/50 split in english and swedish for me, maybe leaning a bit more swedish. But I'm curious what it's like for others!

How do you feel about it?

I know there has been a lot of dialogue on this topic online end of last year on booktok, but I thought we could revisit it here through a PB lens?

Bonus question: I've seen some author presence for some of our cool giveaway programs! Do you think knowing the author is on PB will impact the way you interact in the forum?
