So there's this huge post here for readers around the world, but It's lagging so much for me and I seem to mostly see people from the USA and Canada, so here's one for my European fellows🌟 Which country are you from/live in? I'm from Lithuania!🇱🇹🦅🦅🦅

I love this app and all it represents, so My Thorns For Your Roses (and book 2 in the trilogy, though this book can stand alone) will have a PageBound giveaway for 12 printed Advanced Reader Copies (ARCs) and a (number TBD) batch of finalized ebooks.
I’ve already got things sorted out with Lucy, so now I just need work out some details and logistics with my publisher.
There will be physical copies for users located in the USA and epub copies for international users.
I can’t wait! Thank you again for making this wonderful app, Lucy and Jennifer! ❤️

I'd recommend this (and the other books) for everyone interested in reading other retellings such as Circe, Medea, ... For more background! Beautifully told!

I've seen a few posts where the audience is assumed to be American and it made me curious about how many users are actually American? Objectively speaking it makes sense that the majority is but I wish there was a statistic for it (just out of curiosity).

someone pointed out in a subreddit that the plot was getting repetitive and I cant unsee it, it does seem repetitive and i am just half way through.

Hello everyone! I hope this post does not come off as rude or nit-picky, please bear with me. I started using Pagebound a few weeks before the app was released, but then stopped for a bit because life got busy. I've finally started using it frequently again (so many new and awesome users!) and have noticed that forum etiquette seems to be...lacking (I make these comments based on the pinned club post that details forum etiquette). I find my feed full of forum posts saying things like "no way" or "from 0%...so excited to finally start this!" I find this to be the opposite of what Pagebound is meant to be --- ENGAGING. I understand forums to be a space for conversation, analysis, and sharing impactful excerpts, but that doesn't seem to be how they're used by a lot of people. Sometimes I see posts on books that I read a few months or a few years ago and I'd love to connect with people that are currently reading them, but I just have nothing to comment on their posts because they are so vague.
I know it does not make sense for forums to be "monitored" (for lack of a better word), so I'm just wondering...are these short comments becoming the new normal for forums? I understand that as an app grows and more users join it becomes hard (impossible) to regulate things like this. What are your thoughts on forums and forum etiquette?
Edit: Thank you to everyone commenting their thoughts on this! I love reading everyone's opinions, even if I don't have the energy to reply to all of them. There seems to be a consensus of not engaging, which I understand; it is a nuanced situation. I also appreciate the love for memes, haha. I'm glad this was able to stimulate some discussion and hopefully other users find the thoughts here helpful (I know I did😄).
