What do you usually do if there's a book that you started to read and realized you weren't really in the mood for a book like this but you're not sure WHEN you'll be. Do you pause it when you go to log the book OR just DNF it?

Curious if anyone goes through periodically and removes books from their TBR that they’re just not interested in anymore? If so, how often? I went through recently and removed books that had been on there for over two years, I’d had multiple chances to read them but they never seemed to interest me and I feel like now I’m likely never going to want to read them so there’s no point in having them sit on my TBR. Would love to hear everyone’s process for this if they do it!

So far I think the book is cute, the story is quite original (I’ve never read something like it before) and I like the characters. I’m quite intrigued by the whole Anders knows he’s a character in a book, I need to know how and why.

In my mind, comfort books (or series) are more than just a favorite you revisit occasionally. They’re books you might reread every year, or that you turn to when you need something familiar and welcoming. They might be connected to a specific memory or time in your life, or gifted to you by someone special. Or the story just resonates with you in a way that brings you comfort. Here are mine: -The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane by Kate DiCamillo -The Infernal Devices series by Cassandra Clare -Sorcery of Thorns by Margaret Rogerson -A Far Wilder Magic by Allison Saft (I do not support her being a Gale defender, do not come for me 😭)

Be honest: is it the cover, the title, the author, the blurb, the vibes, or the hype?

I'm working on completing a book bingo for my local bookstore and one of the prompts is to read a book a friend didn't like. I don't have friends that read often, so I thought I'd ask here... Recommend me a book you didn't like!

I've read books with both longer chapters and shorter ones and depending on the book and plot I'd say they fit... but, longer chapters feel intimidating. I feel like I can read multiple shorter chapters alot faster than the longer ones, even if they total up to the same number of pages. (For example: chapters 1-5 = 30 pages as opposed to chapter 1 = 30 pages) Does anyone else feel like that? Do you prefer longer chapters or shorter ones?
