Since there seem to be people from all over on here, I was wondering what languages you read in? Also what makes you chose the language of any specific book? Just availability or do you prefer a language over another?

I read mostly in German and English, some French here and there.

find a book you’ve read for each letter of your name/nickname/username!

i’ll start : S - Spells by Aprilynne Pike A - A Lesson in Vengeance by Victoria Lee R - Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare A - Acide Sulfurique by Amélie Nothomb H - Heated Rivalry by Rachel Reid (the only one I could think of 😙)

the list is a bit of mess but… your turn 🫵

edit: i’m happy you guys liked the game! i think i read them all, even though i couldn’t comment on all 😅 thank you for participating 🫶

Does anyone go through their finished books for nostalgia purposes? I started my GoodReads in 2016 and it's fun to see what I was reading at 14. I have a lot of children's books and I think I just looked up things that were either on my shelf at the time or books that I remembered reading as a child. I didn't really keep up with tracking until about a year and half ago so I'm missing a lot of books, but it's fun to see how my reading has evolved in some ways and stayed the same in others.

It is Wednesday my dudes👋🏻

It’s time for Who’s Who Wednesday where every Wednesday we introduce ourselves and make new friends. This is possibly part 16.

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. I have a 25-year-old scar on my left arm from when the family cat scratched me as a kid (not her fault, she got spooked while sitting in my lap and scratched me by accident).

Why are there a lot of fantasy books with titles that sound like Sarah J Maas' books?? 😭 They all sound like spin offs from ACOTAR. Daughter of smoke and bone, The girl of fire and thorns, Children of blood and bone, The Serpent and the wings of night, From blood and ash, The Kingdom of flesh and fire, King of battle and blood, The wrath and the dawn, A fate of wrath and flame, Heart of blood and ashes, A court of honey and ash, The courts of fate and fear etc etc

I have read none of these books, nor have I read SJM's books and THIS IS SO CONFUSING 😭
