I'm normally someone who searches for my next book by just looking up queer fantasy and choosing whatever sounds good. Otherwise I just go off someone's recommendation from their list of books they have enjoyed. In the last couple of days there have been a couple of posts on here that are making me think before choosing any books I need to research the authors better. One pointed out an author I had recommended to me was a Zionist and another was discussing AI covers. Personally I struggle to research authors before reading anything they have written as I get bored and overwhelmed. My questions to fellow readers are how much do you look into an author before you choose to read a book? And is there anything you do to make the task of researching your authors fun?

I love this community but I have an issue I see so many spoilers of books on my tbr on the main page!! It also doesn’t help I’m a naturally curious person that I keep on reading even if it’s a one line comment 😭 vague comments are okay but when people mention “I can’t believe ____ died” in the forum without a spoiler it’s so annoying. I only add books I will read in the near future to my tbr so it doesn’t help that the spoiler keeps echoing in my mind when I think of picking up the book. How do you guys navigate this?

I'm currently subscribed to an audiobook service, because the audiobooks in onlin estores (the Kobo store for example) are way too expensive compared to the ebooks, but I hate subscriptions.
Pros of buying the single audiobook:
Cons:
What do you think?

Never thought i’d be tearing up this early in a classic… i’m excited to see where this leads emotionally for the characters and for myself

The weekend is upon us! I don’t know about you all but this week felt very long. I have been looking forward to doing some cleaning and baking while listening to audiobooks this weekend. I am also hoping to spend sometime this weekend re-organizing one of my bookshelf’s as it has a mix of books and craft supplies on it.
Do you have any bookish plans or goals for this weekend?

I put this on my tbr because of the way that a booktuber I watched described how she liked the writing style but I just noticed in the blurb that it says that the main character has a love interest and I just want to be sure - would this be characterized as a romance, or is the main character falling for somebody just a general plot thing?

Every single time you guys refer to PageBound as “PB”, I read it as peanut butter. 😭😭😭
That’s it.
That’s the post.

Does anyone prefer hard cover, I personally like paperback it’s cheaper, I can hold the book easily, I don’t have to worry about a dust cover. But hard covers do look really nice idk, anyone have a specific preference?

Do you ever donate/sell your books? If so, how do you decide which books those will be?
For example, if it's a hardcover of a book you dislike/don't plan to read, do you keep it or sell/donate it? If it's a book by a problematic author what do you do with it? If it's a book that you didn't hate but you also didn't LOVE do you keep it or donate/sell it? Especially if you're trying to make space in your library.
What goes into this decision?
