It’s really wild looking back on how repressed my ancestors were… like, I have family roots in Salem back in this time and it makes me so sad thinking about how they lived and how much of a chokehold Puritanism had on EVERY LITTLE ASPECT OF THEIR LIVES😭

God forbid two consenting adults want to hook up! Without slut-shaming this book literally would not exist. Fuck the church, I said it.

tell me about your day, your current read, how you’re feeling, etc! sending you each love and warmth and cosy energy 💌🌻🫂 always

Think codes and puzzles built into the text. I've heard of House of Leaves - does anyone know other books that are similarly format-bending? I don't mind the genre but I think interactive stories are super cool. I was reading some old middle-grade detective novels that had hidden ciphers built in, and kept thinking how much fun it would be to work out another sort of book like that.

Count Olaf gives me such unpleasant vibes, poor Baudelaire orphans 😔

enoch is actually so funny, i love how blunt and sarcastic he is. “Oh, thank heavens! Someone remembered the bath mat”, Enoch deadpanned. “We are saved.”

Is it just me or does Judge Strauss seem to act innocent in front of them? Her behavior is really suspicious hmmmm but anyway, this short story is really engaging like I feel I could finish it in one day!

Not really book related but what is everyone's favourite song/artist at the minute? I'm really loving Asap Rocky and Don Tolivers new albums! I really wish I could read and listen to music at the same time but I just end up getting distracted and sing along 😂

This is driving me crazy each time I see it, so once and for all, it is spelt perimeter, not perimetre Did no one proofread this?

For my multi-book readers, what are the two most opposite genre/theme books you’re reading right now??👀🤔

Happy Friday, fellow fiction fans!

Drop the first line or two of the book you're currently reading, and let fellow Boundlings try to guess the title and author. If no one gets it by the end of the day, come back and reveal the answer!

A few friendly guidelines: • Keep it to the first line or two only (no spoilers!) • Don’t include the title or author right away • Feel free to add a hint later if people get stuck
