So I enjoy reading but I just get so lazy with it sometimes so I want to set a goal to reach everyday, should I aim to read 2 or 3 chapters a day or more or less?
HEY BABES!!!
I’ve been seriously slacking on posting in here lately, but I went through the group today and started catching up on everyone’s posts and I’m so happy to see people are still posting and recommending books to each other even when I’ve been MIA.
There’s over 200 of us in here now so I figured this is probably the best place to ask for help because I am in the WORST book slump right now.
I feel like I keep reading the same book over and over again just with different character names. Everything is starting to feel recycled and I cannot find anything that’s actually pulling me in.
So please give me your recommendations. I want the book that you couldn’t put down, the one you stayed up way too late reading, something you wish you could read again for the first time. I’m open to pretty much anything at this point, I just need something that doesn’t feel like I’ve already read it 15 times.
And while we’re at it, what is everyone reading right now? Is it actually good? Is the smut worth it? Did you DNF anything recently? What book are you currently obsessed with?
I feel like I have so many lately that have been like pulling teeth😩
Also please keep making your own posts in here! Ask for super specific recommendations, recommend something you loved, complain about something you hated, talk about what you’re writing, ask for advice, whatever. I really want this group to be somewhere we can actually talk about books and help each other find new ones instead of everyone just lurking.❤️
I find myself wanting to preorder books but whenever there is an author talk or book signing, most of them are requiring you to purchase the book through them (or it comes with the ticket fee)
Do you preorder? Why or why not?
I tried the sample for House of Suns through audible and I hated it so I didn’t buy it. It was recommended to me, so when I said I didn’t listen to it I decided to read it. Somehow reading it myself change the book completely for me and it turns out I love the book. I tried to listen to dungeon crawler Carl after already reading the third book but I couldn’t get into it either. I plan on listening to all the books again from the beginning. Maybe it’s because I started listening on the third book and not the first.
Anyone else have this issue?
Personally didn’t enjoy the book being a collection of letters- much prefer reading an actual novel.
Some of the letter seemed so pointless and like space to fill the novel.
Also i didn’t find the end very good, when I came to the end it was rather a let down? Curious to know if anyone else had the same experience.
Has anyone listened to The Hive by Kuba Soltysiak and Tim Schauer?
It's an incredible CIA mystery thriller. Executive produced by Tony Hale (he also co stars). Fully stacked cast: Taylor Dearden (The Pitt), Margo Martindale (The Americans), Samira Wiley (Handmaid's Tale), Brandon Routh (Superman).
I have never listened to an audiobook that was so CINEMATIC. The sound design is insane.
Lots of reviews say it should be adapted into a movie and I agree. Please tell me someone else has listened to it? What did you think? And do you have other recs that are similar?
Looking for a seasonal read. Not really a romance but something still fiction and will make me feel cozy in a spooky way lol
