Hey, hey! I've got a question for the class. For those that read multiple books at the same time, do you have a method for doing so (ie: read a chapter of each or read only one each day, etc.) or do you just go at it randomly?
I never thought I'd have this struggle, but I want to read all the things all the time and lately, even as I read/listen to one book, I find myself thinking of one or more other books. (Apparently my ADHD isn't as managed as it's been in the past! 🤣)

What is a specific scene in a romance book that made you put down the book/kindle and say "What the actual fuck am I reading?"

Don't forget to drop the title 👀

It’s my birthday! Here, the evening is about to start and I am looking forward to a chill evening with my new knitting project and a book.
Since I’m 30 now, I gift everybody in the lovely Pagebound community 30 minutes of undisturbed reading!
Love, Woolly Bookworm

Hi~ I'm asking this because in many years of tracking my books I've almost never used the tbr section,but I'm starting to wonder if that wouldn't be way more practical than just staring longingly at my shelves whenever I'm considering to start a book. So,the questions are: -Do you only put books you own physically in the tbr,or also those you still have to get a hold on or that you are planning to read digitally? -Does actually having a full tbr list ruin the magic of scanning the shelves? Because that would be kind of...meh

Hi guys! I need some book recommendations 😊
Growing up, I loved fantasy/whimsical novels like The Chronicles of Narnia, The Spiderwick Chronicles, Harry Potter. I want to get back into that kind of genre again, but this time I’m looking for books that have a similar magical, immersive, wonder-filled vibe without feeling too YA.
Things I’m looking for: -whimsical / cozy / magical atmosphere -immersive worlds that make you feel like you’re living somewhere else -adventure, mystery, folklore, magical creatures, hidden worlds, etc. -preferably adult fantasy but not spicy things.
Any recommendations? ✨

Hello hoomans! Good morning from my side of the world. Can't believe we are halfway through May. I hope everyone's reading is going well.
Have you ever read a book where you paused and say: you know what that's a valid reason to be a villian? 😅😂
So tell me, if you were to be a villian in a story what will be your origin story? 😆 NOTE: It can only because of inconvenience/pettiness. Nothing too serious like someone died. For example: all your ex-boyfriends keep bringing you pads when you ask them to buy you tampons. 😂😂
For me it will be, my barista keeps making my iced coffee watered down with barely any ice and too much milk. 🤫😮💨 OR telling me my dog is just a "dog" and not my baby. 😒
PS. As they say, we're all villians on someone elses story. 😉

At what point do y'all consider your physical TBRs too long? I feel like I never realize I'm getting overwhelmed by the amount of unread books I have until I actually sit down and count or go through my read vs unread stats. Right now I'm sitting at 59 unread books, which feels like a lot but also it was sitting at over 100 at the beginning of last year, so, you know, progress!!
When I feel like I have too many books I try to limit the amount of library books I read and put myself on a book buying ban, but doing that last year sent me into a year-long semi-slump.

I'm finally going on my honeymoon 3 years later! Me and my wife will be going to Italy in October. I searched for lists about travel and came up short (maybe I looked up the wrong keywords?), but I'm looking for fiction about characters gallivanting and traveling and otherwise having fun throughout new countries (does not have to be just Europe!).
I loved It Had To Be Him by Adib Khorram and Every Step She Takes by Alison Cochrun.
Thanks!
