Probably losing sense of time and space somewhere by reading, when I am not (voluntarily) suffering because of math. Reading mostly in German, English and Danish. 🖤🩶🤍💜

  • Favourite Monster?

    As a myth gremlin, I periodically fall in love with monsters , because half of them imo are misunderstood and or mistreated which I have bones to pick with . That aside, I am always interested in the idea of what qualifies as monster/god or human. And there are so many favourite non-humans or monsters that live rent free in my head. With that, I would love to see everyone continue this conversation in the comments: What is your favourite mythical monster and why do you love them ? I would love to find new ones I don't know of .

  • Your favourite type of vampire?

    Sexy and dangerous? Misunderstood and grouchy? Gentle and funny? Brutal and scary?

    Tell me your favourite type of vampire and why! I’d love to know if your type is represented in this quest, and what books we can find your beloved type in!

    I’m just a girl who loves her vamps hella sexy and dangerous 😝 Some of my favourites are… - Gabriel from Empire of the Vampire - Raihn from The Serpent & the Wings of Night - Carmilla from Hungerstone

    But also, special mention to Good Stab in The Buffalo Hunter Hunter who is his own special blend of (respectfully) sexy and (seriously) dangerous.

  • If you could have any fictional job, what would it be?

    I am home sick today, so figured I'd think of a fun question to keep me entertained!

    If you could have any fictional job, what would it be?

    For me, I think I would be some sort of herbologist. Either a teacher or someone who runs a store! You can take me out of the real world but you cannot take me away from plants haha!

  • Who's Who Wednesday (possibly part 15)

    Hey y'all 👋🏻

    It’s time for Who’s Who Wednesday where every Wednesday we introduce ourselves and make new friends. This is possibly part 15.

    Jadelovesbooks originally started this. These were some of my favorite posts to read through so I'd like to bring it back if that's cool (or if these were ended on purpose, let me know and I'll remove this).

    If you participated in any of the times before, you don’t have to introduce yourself again but you can share some different facts about you, an opinion you have, or how your week is going.

    If you’re new, introduce yourself!

    I’ll go first.

    My name is Wibbily. When I listen to Good Luck Babe by Chappell Roan, I only hear 🎶"When you wake up next to ham in the middle of the night."🎶 I can't unhear it and now I kinda prefer it 🐷

  • What was your introduction to online book communities?

    Obviously we're all here on Pagebound now, but I'm curious what your first foray into the online book world was? For me it was tumblr, very specifically 2016 era litblr where everyone was reading all for the game, grishaverse, the raven cycle, etc and those tumblr network blogs/discord servers were super popular. I made so many #aesthetic edits for my favorite books and was super into the ask games and network challenges...what a time on the internet that was.

  • Design Your Own Literature Class ✨

    I've been seeing more folks designing personal curriculum: essentially inventing a class for themselves using resources they've researched and then compiled. The topics themselves have been fascinating, and often niche, so I was curious about what other Boundlings might do themselves.

    So! If you could design a literature class on any topic, as general or niche as you wanted, what would it be?
