Storing Books

Starlight, Jul 1: I literally just store those sort of books flat in lidded storage boxes. Never had a problem with weight when stored like that personally.

Your very first book

Shooting Star, Mar 31: I don't remember which book it was - not only do I have terrible memory in general, I read a lot so books tend to blend in together -, but it was probably a church picture book thingy? Or maybe some kind of comic book.

Childhood Books

Roni, Feb 12: I've never been much of a reader, but growing up, I definitely read The Very Hungry Caterpillar at one point, and one other book that was quite close to my heart. This thread brought back my memory of it from the deepest recesses of my mind lol. ...

Books for a non-reader

Shooting Star, Jan 16: If you're still taking suggestions, I'd recommend most things by Agatha Christie really. It's said that she's only been outsold by two things: the Bible and Shakespeare, and while book sales aren't a great metric to say the least, her work is...

Ivysaur, Dec 31: 100 - La guía definitiva de Mortadelo y Filemón - Ramis, Ibáñez 101- The Windsor Knot - SJ Bennett I'm going to finish just a few pages short of #102. Not bad, an average of two books/comics a week.

Audio, electronic or print?

Ivysaur, Dec 15: I love paper and I'd stick to that if I had an endless supply of shelves to put them in. But I don't, so I have to use ebooks instead. Audiobooks are too distracting to me... and too slow.

Having fun isn't hard when you've got a library card!

Shooting Star, Aug 12: Ok, so, strictly speaking there are public libraries in my city. Quite a few of them actually, but I just never really went there. Like, I knew of this big giant old building smack dab downtown that's like the library in the country - it's...

Janp, Dec 2020: Before I join 2021 thread, I just want to put together the list of books I've read in 2020 here, so I can adjust a threshold for next year: Also the list is without authors, because I would spend an eternity looking for some of them So I did...

RadEmpoleon, Nov 2020: I re-read Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children over the summer and I hadn’t read it in years. Of course I knew what was coming, but re-reading makes you appreciate the foreshadowing.

Mystery Novels

gimmepie, Sep 2020: One of my favourite books is an eco-thriller called The Swarm by Frank Schatzing. I highly recommend it. Technically, it's not a mystery novel, but the first 1/2 of the book is largely centred around solving a mystery (made up of a bunch of smaller...

Least Favorite Harry Potter Characters

User Anon 1848, Aug 2020: Snape was my favorite character so admittedly I'm biased but I took his character arc as a good example of what happens when you don't let go of the past before it consumes you. In Snape's case he couldn't get over his childhood bullying, losing...

Commander Saturn, Jun 2020: I would have to say that Tom Riddle is my favourite character, with Dumbledore followed closely afterwards. They seem to be the only two that would not vex my mental. I do appreciate each member of the Malfoy family though, Narcissa and Scorpius a...

Do you prefer physical books or ebooks?

Marnie, Nov 2019: Definitely physical books. While I don't mind reading on a screen we already spend too much time in front of one and I like physically holding a book and turning its pages.

How much do you read books on a daily basis?

AlolanRattata, Sep 2019: My pace for reading is just extremely slow. I used to have the same habit you are probably talking about, but once everyone started having this aversion to reading it became rather discouraging.

Meganium, Nov 2018: Killers of the Flower Moon if you are interested in a thriller/mystery with ties to American History. Had to read it for a history class and it was definitely a good read. I heard it's also going to be a movie for it.

Is reading dead?

Palamon, Oct 2017: I literally read one book a day. Manga, but I still read. I like reading, and always have. Just because I don't read full blown novels, doesn't mean reading still doesn't have value to me in one way or another. But I do think reading is in a decline...
