Make the comments look like we're working in a book store but none of us have had any proper training

When my son was five, he asked if we could make up our own holidays like Christmas and Easter. I said we could and as a result, I chose to dedicate a day to reading each year.

I chose August 30th as it's the birth date of Mary Shelley (who authored my favourite story) and so every year since we have celebrated Mary Shelley Day by gifting books to each other and spending the day reading.

I was just browsing book catalogues, looking for books to gift my children and partner, and it made me wonder if other people also had book-based holidays that they celebrated.

If you do have a book-based holiday or tradition, I'd love to hear about it!

Hi everyone! I've slowly been getting into reading as a hobby, and I've noticed that I end up learning so many life lessons from novels!

I recently read The Wedding People and Dear Debbie, and both books made me think a lot about what life with my fiancé might be like after we get married. How will I change? How will he change? Will we become better versions of ourselves?

That got me wondering if anyone has book recommendations for someone who's about to get married.

Are there any books you wish you'd read before saying "I do"? Or even books you wish you'd read 10 years earlier? Have you and your partner ever read a book together that you both loved?

I'd love to hear your recommendations and any genre is welcome!!
