    How do you guys imagine the transvects? As far as I can glean, they are big wooden trains that float in the sky?

    Thoughts from 3% (page 17)

    I'm in disbelief that chapter 1 was just 16 pages because I swear it took almost an hour to get through. Every other sentence I was taking notes trying to acclimate to all the different terms used and piecing together some understanding of the world and characters we have so far.

  • Duology, Trilogy or Series?

    What's your sweet spot when reading books with multiple parts? I feel like my sweet spot is a duology. Trilogies are nice too, but, more often than not I feel like the 2nd book usually lacks something. Series that are longer feel like a big time commitment and keeping track of all the characters and events 😭 (I usually make the joke that I'm Dory from Finding Nemo). I do like long book series, but only when I have the time to actually enjoy it.

    NOTES :D - Thoughts from 0% (page 1)

    Upon starting this I realized there is hell of a lot of new information so I thought maybe some people would like a quick notes section to look at without having to flip through the book! I was going to make one for myself and decided to share it :) enjoy! Catenan Rankings: Rank - Receives Will From 1. Princeps - 40,320 people 2. Dimidius - 20,160 people 3. Tertius - 6,720 people 4.

  • What's everyone's current read?

    I'd love to know what is everyone reading I am currently reading Vicious by VE Schwab. I've had this on my TBR for so long, but never found the motivation to pick it up until now. I am enjoying the story as well as the main character. I am also reading Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo, or more like trying to since it has taken me two years to get to page 90 XD i have soft DNFed it thrice now at this point but because i spent a good amount of money on it, I do want to read it.

    Vaughn was too fucking disgusting and awful to continue, I cant. I wanted to continue for DD but I love myself too much to subject myself to the horrors of Vaughn.

But fucking Vaughn? no. and ik he's supposed to be unlikable but bro is a literal toddler (enter sob emoji here) foot stomping, and now backwashing into her drink? ICKK. actually made me feel ill. please, get this man away from me I do not care how hot he is (enter more sobbing emojis) I like the book. I am eating it up. But I could do without Vaughn.

    Wary Thoughts from 0% (page 1)

    I want to hop on the Elsie bandwagon so bad, buttttt I always have a hard time with cowboy romances. I'm from the south and grew up around cowboys, cows, hell I live right next to a chicken farm. Andddd the nicknames in the books either drive me nuts or I just cant push aside my own experiences enough to enjoy it. Bc in reality, or at least my experience, the cowboy experience is only so positive. Sure, southern hospitality is superrr nice, but I've never met one who wasn't also a raging redneck, racist, or misogynistic due to the southern values taught in my area (stereotype that is sadly true). But!! I'm diving into this, pushing my feelings aside, and giving this a genuine try! Because I've heard SO much praise from this author, I've got FOMO, and I'm actually interested! Let's go babyyyy

    Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

    So far, this is my favorite. I loved the tarzan/jane elements. Harlow was so sweet, gentle, and patient with Ruhk and he was utterly devoted. Im usually a pregnancy hater in books, but I liked it in this. Their backstories were dim but their future will be bright. So excited to continue with this series. (The star rating is lower than the others, despite this being my fav, because i reevaluated my rating system. i feel back into the habit of mood rating instead of thinking critically)

  • Do you have a favorite manga?

    I have loved reading manga since I was in middle school. My current favorite manga is definitely Oshi no Ko. I'm also really loving Haikyu!! I'm waiting for the next movie to drop as well. I can't wait to read more of the story soon! I also love Bleach & Naruto. I devoured both of those manga together starting in 2019 and finishing in 2021! What are some of your favorite manga?
