Saw this on my facebook and intended to sent it privately to my best friend but I messed up and share it on my profile for all my FB friends to see. It became a happy accident because my book friends (whom haven't talked to in a while) engaged on the post and we had fun on roasting my chaotic evil friends.

I'm lawful evil. You?

Have you ever tried making any of the recipes included in fiction books? And were the recipes any good?

I haven’t tried any yet but I recently remembered that for example Jenny Colgan includes recipes in the end of her Little Beach Street Bakery and Meet Me at the Cupcake Cafe and I started wondering which more books have recipes and if anyone had tried these.

I’m currently in an ambitious baking mood and maybe this is the thing I should go for?

Hello fellow Boundlings, How are you today?

I've woken up (like every Monday) with an impending sense of dread about the work week ahead. But it's not fair: I already give Capitalism a lot of my time and energy, I refuse to give it also my emotional wellbeing.

Therefore, I've decided to treat this day as an adventure. The main quest will be to be present and kind.

What will your main quest for today be? Can you give me ideas for side quests to add a little joy and whimsy to this day?

I've been reading this morning and I have thought of something weird to ask! This is lretty much about reading physical books because ebooks sort of.. save your place already

First, how many of you use bookmarks? How many use something else (dog-earing pages, memorizing the page number (i used to do this when i was reading one book at a time))?

For those of you that use bookmarks, do you take it out when you read and then put it back in to the new spot when you're done reading? Do you move the bookmark ahead to the spot you're aiming to read to? Do you move the bookmark with every page turn? (I've done all these 😂)

How did you choose a book to read?

I know there are things we had to read for school or work, but outside of that, when it came to enjoyment, how did you decide without outside voices weighing in? Im talking before social media, before endless algorithms pushing things into your viewing eyes.

For me, I followed a version of the five finger rule I learned in kindergarten for picking a book that wouldn’t frustrate us:

Look at the cover. Do a picture walk if you can. Glance at the words. Start reading. If more than five words don’t make sense, try something else.

Over time, I made it my own.

When I went to a library or Borders (I miss Borders), the cover had to catch me. If it didn’t, it was over before it began. Then I’d open to a random page and read a paragraph somewhere in the middle. If it hooked me, I was in. If not, back on the shelf it went without a second thought.

I caught myself doing this again the other day at the library, after grabbing books I’d been looking for. Just wandering and trusting my own instincts to find some random reads.

I’ve even started teaching a version of it to my toddler, which has been really fun to experience now as a mom.

So now I’m curious, with all the information we have at our fingertips, when you don’t check reviews or look for recommendations, how do you choose a book for yourself?

Hi everyone! As the title of the post says, I'm looking for a book to read before bed. I'm not looking for a book that would help me fall asleep but rather a book I can read in bed to end the day on a good note. Preferably the book shouldn't be a page turner or emotionally tasking. All suggestions would be appreciated!!

Hey everyone! ✨

I wonder if you all have a certain type of system for rating the books you've read? Or do you just rate it on vibes, like me? I have always been hesitant to rate some books 5 stars previously (for whatever reasons) but now, I have been more open to giving 5 stars ⭐ if I really really love it!

That being said, I'd like to set up a certain rating system for books 🤔 and would like to hear how you all rate your books?✨

Can't help but smile and giggle every time I read their conversation 🤣

"I was only off by one percent," I grumble. "You talk to you, question?" "Yes! I'm talking to me." ❝Humans are unusual❞ "Yes," I say.
