Alright Boundlings I’m curious!! Who has made the switch to dark mode and who is keeping light mode? Dare I make it a competition and say battle it out with an emoji or gif in the comments on which team you are repping??

🎤 ahem in one corner we have the prettiest pastels and visually stunning colors… it’s Light Mode versus the new competitor, a dark sultry visually calming high color scheme… it’s Dark Mode. Let the battle begin 🥊

hehe in all seriousness I needed the high contrast that dark mode offers from an accessibility standpoint so team dark mode all the way over here 🖤

Okay, so I’m new to the app and just wanted to say that I’m absolutely loving it here so far! Posts and exchanges all feel really friendly and respectful and I’m just very happy to be a part of this community.

Has anybody been saved from reading a bad book because a glitch? 👀

I'm not a happy bunny, my Audible subscription renewed yesterday and it's not letting me pick a new book this month 🫠 it says to claim my book, so I do the thing, it buffers and then it just goes back to saying "Claim this Book" This is the last month of my free trial, so this is just rude; like give me my book 🤣

Anywho, I think I dodged a bullet because the book I wanted to read has some really bad reviews. Saying the pacing is awful, the characters are unrelatable etc. All the things that are just going to annoy me. So now I'm back wondering which audiobook to read when the glitch stops being a glitch

Quick semi announcement that the new app version was released on Android! This includes Midnight mode (ie dark mode) and a bunch of other quality of life improvements.

Hopefully we can get Apple out ASAP but we've been waiting over a week on their review, it's been a bit of a battle! But we didn't want to keep Android waiting while Apple is stuck.

Does anybody else feel rage baited by Bloomsbury with the ACOTAR 6 marketing?

Like 2 months until release give or take no title. no blurb. no cover. Nothing.

But Bloomsbury keeps posting ACOTAR content from re-read content, to ACOTAR themed pilates classes, or just things to do with the series. And heavily pushing the ACOTAR series with the new colors everywhere. And the cover artist is posting teasers but obviously they can't say anything. The translators are like "Look what I'm reading"

And in the comments people are, rightfully, fed up. I've seen several say they feel rage baited and have cancelled their pre-orders

Honestly, I'm beginning to lose interest myself but I'm going to an ACOTAR 6 Midnight Release thats non-refundable

I've never known a publisher to potentially rage bait an entire fandom 🤣 And really, just a date would be sufficient!

Hii, I want to ask audio book enjoyers - where do you listen to your books? I'm someone who isn't very well acquainted with audiobook subscriptions and options, all I've listened to in the past is the free ones uploaded on YouTube. But I do really like them, I want to know your opinions on what's worth trying and what's worth paying money for.

I was today years old to learn Canadian's also celebrate Boxing Day. I thought it was only a British thing, huh that's cool to know

Dark Romance peeps, your time has come!

I need to know if anyone else has any like basically irrational pet peeves when it comes to books. Yesterday I read the first couple pages of The Empress of Salt and Fortune (one of the readalong books) and I immediately put it down because there’s a talking horse on the first page. I absolutely cannot stand talking animals in books unless it makes sense in the universe, but I was just so unprepared for that I couldn’t go on lol 🥲. I’m sure it’s a good book I just can’t. I was wondering if anyone else has any pet peeves like that, or if I’m just insane lol.
