Does anyone else feel like a kid waiting for Christmas waiting for the next round of Seasonal Readalongs to come out or do I have a problem? 🙂

i loved how complex the characters and the story was. this is my second time reading it and i see myself rereading it again in the future. i think it's a book that i understood the plot and the themes on the first read, but i learn more details on language and history by rereading it.

I'm curious — considering a lot of us readers are collectors, have lots of cozy hobbies, and take care of curating a space that feels like our own — what's your aesthetic?
I'm a pink and glitter lover, which means my kindle and Kobo are decorated with pink, and I like pink and glittery things in my cozy gaming and reading space. I think mine matches my fave genres, which is romance.
I'm curious how everyone else is curating or decorating their shelves/reading space/ hobby space.
And does it match what you read?

EDIT: thank you so much everyone for the recommendations - I'll make my way through them and add them to my list ❤️
Hey, I'm definitely a novel/non fiction gal. But recently I've been going through a bit of a non-fiction phase - have loved Cult-ish, Men who hate women, jailbirds and Witchcraft (a history in 13 trials).
Does anyone have any recommendations of non fiction they love? Please no self help/autobiography style as I've read a lot in the past and don't want anymore and find a lot of the recommendations fall into these categories. I just want to read about interesting topics, in a way that engaging - would love any help thanks in advance.

Hey, beautiful people 💫 After that post I made in the forum I felt so surprised to see so many people relate to my situation, and it was overwhelming (in the best way) to feel everyone's support and understanding. So I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone who took the time to give me a little uplifting, it really made a difference.
This made me think that we really are a community of dear anonymous friends, who support each other through the love of books. Which led me to this thought: There are so many beautiful and original usernames... What's the story behind each one? (except for one_crazy_eliott, I think I understand the reason behind Mr. Crazy's username 🤭🤭🤭)
So, if you feel comfortable, share the story behind it. I think it will help bring us closer and keep everyone's anonymity anyway.
I'll start: The OGs know I started PB as fantasy.betareader but decided later to change my username to Pipsy to help me feel more connected here. This is a nickname my sister gave me when I was 3 or 4 years old, and it stuck until today. My whole family calls me by it, my friends, my teachers, my bosses, etc. Even on my passport, my signature says Pipsy. So that's basically my name 😊
