    It’s me! The problem is me 😭 I really am not made for scifi reads. I keep on dabbling with the genre once in a while and it’s rare for me to totally get into it. And so here’s another example of me trying 😌

    I swear it was okay, my brain just couldn’t jump into it wholly. It’s like watching a whole fantastic play but I am just too detached to empathize with anyone.

    Also, the writing style was interesting. I had to continue on audiobook because I just had a hard time reading it. 😪 If you’re finding it challenging to read, try the audiobook! Just don’t listen to it loudly with other people around šŸ˜‚ The author didn’t hold back with the uhm ā€˜copulating’ language

    Listen to the audiobook only when you’re sure you are šŸ’Æ awake because I kid not, it lulls you to sleep šŸ˜‚ It truly is about Amy and the birds.

  • We have merch! [10/22/25]

    Hi everyone - excited to announce that Pagebound finally has merch! You can view the selection at https://store.pagebound.co/

    We know this has been highly requested, and we wanted to get out a first release in time for the holidays, so what we have now is a limited run of a few items. We do have plans in the future for an expanded store with more product types (stickers of avatars & badges, mugs, etc) and more t-shirt / sweatshirt / hat designs. Let us know your other requests in the comments 😊

    This was very fun to create, and we can’t wait to see everyone repping Pagebound--it’s about to be my daily uniform šŸ™‚ā€ā†•ļø

    Honestly, this was too sci-fi for me but it was such a fun read. Definitely reading the 2nd book!

    I already be wanting spin offs or maybe like an expanded story for the kids and the rest of Elias’ crew šŸ˜‚ Knowing the back story of how this book came about, I really hope we get to have more stories from this new series!

    Every time I click off Pagebound it logs me out and I have to log back in even if it was just for a second whilst on another app. Does this happen for everyone else? Not sure if it’s how I signed up with google…

    I read way out of my comfort zone with this book. Pagebound, I deserve a different badge HAHAHA.

    I read the trigger warnings and I have read some of the comments about the age difference but I thought well I have read my fair share of paranormal romance so it can’t be that bad.

    Peoples, the trigger warnings are there for a reason.

    PEOPLES I NEED A RECOMMENDATION WITH GOOD BANTER OR SLOW BURN ROMANCE TO REFRESH MY BRAIN. HIT ME UP WITH YOUR BEST RECS.

    Another book I made myself finish for the sake of a reading challenge šŸ˜…

    The FMC was too flighty for my taste, the romance too insta for me to be invested in, and the overall story all over the place for me to get excited about what happens next.

    It’s another case of me not being the right audience for this read.
