    Should I reread?

    I read this book about two ir three years ago, and I felt like I went in with the wrong expectations. I really enjoyed it, and I thought the writing was beautiful, but I did not feel nearly as connected to the book as many others have shared feeling recently (in regards to it’s major success). Part of me feels like I should go back and reread it, because of everyone else’s hype, but I’m scared of being even more confused. I liked the book, but it in no way “wrecked me.”

    Serial Rewatcher - Thoughts from 9%

    It will forever be relatable that Murderbot enjoys rewatching the same shows over and over.

    I was watching episodes of The Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon again, since there wasn’t time to start anything new before we reached the station. (Being interrupted isn’t nearly as annoying when I already know the story.)

    Murderbot is just like me for real.

    Thoughts from 40% (page 192)

    Am I reading the wrong book?🙃 So many people have rated this book 5 stars and I really don't understand why so far. It's okay, but it's kind of boring and the mc, and really all the other characters, are painfully uninteresting. The premise is cool, but that's about it. Some parts are cute and fine to read, but my gosh...what am I missing🫠

  • January Update?

    Hii everyone! We're 20 days into the month and I was wondering how's everyone reading going?

    1. Have we read? If not that's okay!
    2. If you have, are there any books you loved yet?
    3. If you do a tbr list, have you been following it or have you gone off the rails?
    4. Done any buddy reads?
    5. I know a lot of ppl had some anticipated reads for this month, if you had one did you read it yet? Did you like it?

    I've finished 10 books so far and have had a pretty good reading journey this month! Five of the ten I've read have been amazing reads for me, as I gave them five stars! Those five are also some of my most anticipated reads and I'm so glad I loved them.

    I did make a January tbr list, a list of 12 books and I have proudly finished 2 ! Lol not a lot, but this is huge for me because I'm very bad at following lists. Very much a mood reader! Also, I did have one buddy read. Well, an attempt at a buddy read, wasn't in the mood for the book so I did pause it but I do have more buddy reads planned and I'm so excited!

    Let me know how yours have gone so far!

  • Am I old? Yes I am. Are you?

    Hi all! I'm new here and SO PLEASED I found this site. I've been dreaming of a book place like this.

    I'm old enough to have been an avid reader for literal decades. Now I just wish to make sure there are others here too (age does not matter when it comes to reading, just curious).

    Were you listening to Nirvana and reading The Secret History when it first came out?

    Nice to meet you all!
