  • Content warnings system?

    Hey y'all! I found this from an ad on social media, which I'm sure most of you can relate to, and hearing "no Amazon, no AI", is what really sold me. When Storygraph was new and hadn't caved to AI slop, what really sold me on them wasn't just the "no amazon" factor, but they also had a built in system for listing what potentially triggering content was in a book. I, for one, hate when I'm reading a really good book, and then BOOM, SA or child abuse. I've DNF'ed many books because I'll be really into the story and loving the characters, but then the whole thing just becomes about SA. I know there are many stories where that is a main part of the plot, but it's something I prefer to avoid, and I'm hoping that a content warning system something like the one SG utilizes will become part of the Page Bound reality sometime soon! It's been wonderful to see it becoming more prevalent in the reading world, and even in the front of some books!

    TL;DR- Will we get a content warning system at all in the future?

  • Bull Moon Rising!!

    Yall I just finished Bull Moon Rising and it was AMAZING. It totally has a place in this quest cuz Ruby Dixon basically crashed into the romance scene with IPB, and BMR is sweet and delightful and I wasnt expecting to cry over a minotaur romance novel 😂

    "Can you really imagine what it was like in those first moments, peering down into that dark space, and seeing that? Perhaps you can. Perhaps you’re staring at it now." For a second i was like why is she talking to me, is she breaking the fourth wall... then i remembered this is her journal entry that's why lol
