And why won't you read said books 🤔

Does anyone have any specific thoughts about a (cis) man writing about pregnancy in such a way? I can't quite put my finger on it because it seemed like Hendrix put a lot of thought and research into this and the book is really well written, but sometimes I felt a little uneasy about it and it felt like overstepping in a sense? Then again, in a literary landscape in which a lot of male authors seem to forget that women have thoughts at all, it's refreshing that he manages to write women so well and with complex inner lives and motivations.

I've got a question for yall: whenever you read a book, do you prefer to try to guess the major plot or just go with the vibe?

What i mean is after id read "don't let the forest in" i noticed that many people just seemed to guess the plots that id never ever have. More precisely, whenever i read a book i almost never try to guess what is going to happen later as i like the WOW i get from it. Maybe not even that I don't try to guess, but I don't see the obvious things that everyone else seems to see - i feel like those little facts are just not important to me, so my head doesn't ever register them.

Does anyone else feel the same? Or maybe you're reading even differently?

I can't explain why, but this book has the same exact vibe as the live action Cat in the Hat movie from 2003.

Okay I get that the count is very scary, with all his vampiric powers, but isn't he a bit...cunty too? 👀 💅 I don't know, he's giving me that dramatic vibe xD

.. is there anything better?

I have several systems.. my read books are all together, alphabetical. My poetry books are in one spot, the 🌶 ones are in one spot (no accidently scarring visitors..)

My unread ones... some are by genre, some are by size.. some are by binding (all the hardcovers together..) it's organized chaos!

Do you have a system? Does it change? Or has it been the same since you started collecting books?

I haven't really thought about it until now, but one of the things that makes Pagebound so different is that on any other social media site, interactions on really old posts are kinda strange, right? Like I'd be weirded out if someone suddenly liked one of my insta posts from a year ago. But on Pagebound, I HOPE I'm getting interactions on posts a year from now because it means someone else is reading a book I once read and is hanging out on the forum for that book! I don't know, I just think that's really cool, and I hope no one is ever dissuaded from commenting or interacting with a forum because the posts on it are older ❤️
