  • Does anyone else have trouble finishing series?

    I have a series problem.

    I cannot for the life of me ever finish a series. Either I lose my hyperfixation on it or I just don't want it to end. Then I'll re-enter my hyperfixation, but I have to start over from the beginning to remember what happens.

    I guess I could look up the cliff notes or an in depth review and just pick up where I left off. But then I'll never be able to read it for the first time again! Is this something that happens to y'all? Do you have any tips or tricks?

    Shush Are there any Romance/Romantasy books you feel are misunderstood because of certain factors?

    Like people don't understand the romance kind of thing but you fully understand what's going on 🤔 Which books are they?

  • Books that worked as hobby triggers

    What's something you read on a book, picked your interest and turned into a hobby?

    Maybe you loved all those fight scenes in romantasy and decided to take combat classes? Maybe that galaxy far far away made you curious and now you're taking an astrophysics course?

    I may or may not be taking Russian classes after reading a hockey romance that became very popular this/last year 😅

  • What is a reading challenge you've had the most fun with?

    When I was a kid I used to go feral for the summer reading program at my local library. I loved finding books on theme and felt so accomplished when I could add a new sticker to my chart.

    Recently the bookstore I work at had a bingo contest. The actual contest has already ended but I've been working my way through all the squares for a Blackout anyways. It helps me to branch out and read books that I don't think i would have read otherwise.

    That's why I love collecting new types of challenges. Besides the Quest system that already exists on this amazing platform, what other challenges have you done in the past?

  • 🐰 What do you do after your favorite character dies?

    I just stare at the wall and regulate my emotions. Of course I cry, even the story affects my mood for the entire day. I never let anything dirty touch my books but if it’s my tears I don’t care 😭 I let the pages wrinkle wrinkle because I cried over them.

    But the funny thing is, after not reading the story for a long time, I can suddenly feel sad again when I remember that character like remembering my ex (?. Pfftt jk)

    Parents and Emotional Manipulation

    I don't think this is a spoiler but Brianna and Maggie's relationship with their mother is so hard to read. As someone who also grew up in a fraught household with parents that probably never should have been married and who has gone minimal contact with them both, I never like to read stories where demanding, emotional manipulating parents feature heavily in their adult children's lives.

    It's one thing, when the character is younger and separation isn't possible, but the guilt and the shaming and the sense of duty that adult children are made to feel because of their parents just ugh. Anyways, this is rough and I hope as the book continues it will be a much smaller part of the story.

  • When do you know what you want to rate a book?

    As the title says, when do you know what star rating you want to give a book?

    For me, with my current read, I knew at about 30% that it was going to be 5 stars for me and now I'm almost 60% and that has only grown stronger for me. But sometimes even after I've finished a book I find it really hard to tell how I want to rate it.

    So do you also have books where you instantly knew it would be 5 stars or where you instantly knew how you wanted to rate it? If so, what were your immediate 5 star books?

    Thoughts from 3%

    I was NOT picturing an Irish Wolfhound for the entire first section of this first chapter. I feel like a little description there would have been helpful because I was imagining like, a cute little spaniel.

    Also, Con is growling at a stranger entering the house in the middle of the night, good boy, but she runs a B&B doesn't that happen like, all the time?
