Hi everyone! I’m 33F, who recently rediscovered my love for reading and I’m so happy to be falling down this rabbit hole again!

Fantasy has definitely been stealing my heart lately, but I’m also dipping my toes into classics and nonfiction! Some recent reads include Babel, Frankenstein, and Crime and Punishment. I’ve also been working my way through the Throne of Glass series and have a soft spot for cozy fantasy like Legends & Lattes. ☕✨

I’m here to make some book friends, hear everyone’s recommendations, and connect with people who just want to talk about books and life. We definitely don’t have to read the same book and I’m mostly an audiobook girl but I do love a good paperback book :)

My fable is here if you want to check that out! : https://fable.co/fabler/ashreads-132886565551?referralID=5STYNyLC9p

Starting a book 35M looking for a bookbuddy for Malazan

3 Upvotes

Hello,

I want to start Malazan soon, and i heard alot before about how complex/confusing it is especially at the beginning where there are no references for characters/places. Id like someone to read along with discuss theories, characters or any scene tbh😂.

Im ok with choosing any reading pace, i can go a bit fast or slow, as long not too slow.

Seeking long-term book buddies Anyone else feel guilty about how little they read, even though they love it?

• Upvotes

I absolutely adore reading. There’s just something magical about diving into a book, whether it’s the anticipation of a new story or the joy of getting lost in the pages. I find myself buying books that spark my excitement, saving others for later, and making an effort to read regularly.

But, spoiler alert: honestly, I end up reading way less than I intend to. Life has a way of pulling me in different directions, and by the end of the week, I’m left feeling a mix of guilt and frustration about not being able to do what I said I wanted to do.

I’ve tried all the usual tricks, like setting reading goals, using tracking apps, and putting my phone away, and they work for a bit, but the habit never really sticks.

So, I’m thinking about starting a small group, like maybe 5 to 10 people,who are in the same boat. This wouldn’t be a traditional book club with assigned readings; instead, it would be a space to chat about what’s holding us back, share what’s worked for us, and figure out the challenges together.

This might be for you if:
- You truly love reading and often buy or save books that excite you.
- You already make an effort to read regularly.
- You feel a bit guilty or frustrated about how little you actually manage to read.
- You’ve tried various goals, trackers, or other solutions, but nothing seems to stick.

If this resonates with you, drop a comment about what you’ve tried, or send me a DM, and I’ll add you to our little group chat!

Hey! 38 years old dude from Sweden here. I am looking for someone to buddy read Blindsight by Peter watts with. I would like to read it at about the same pace and both call and text to talk about it.

I only know it is an sci fi which should be quite thought inducing. Other than that i am going in blind.

Book in progress I'm at the end of Volume 1 in War and Peace

• Upvotes

So, I'm a guy who has picked up reading to distract myself from the tough life phase I'm going through. And the first book I started is war and peace. At first it was hard to understand what's what etc.... but after I read past chapter 10 -12 it started to feel close to me I don't know why. And after i finished part 1 of volume 1. I picked up and completed Brave New World by Aldous Huxley it was a great read I really liked it. And then I came back to war and peace and again after part 2 I gave it a pause and went to read The metamorphosis it was also a good read, a nice but not so nice feeling short book. And I'm at the end of volume 1 in war and peace now.

But the problem I'm having is that I really love to read that book and for some reason I'm reading it very very slowly. I like the way it's been written. I like how the characters are described and how a scene happens etc...

And now it has come to a point where I don't want it to end. And it's a weird feeling. I want to read it but at the same time I don't want it to end.

Has anyone else felt this way before?

Seeking buddy & flexible on book choice 17 ftm from the US, looking for a book buddy!

1 Upvotes

I'm down to read just about anything! I particularly enjoy classic lit but genuinely I will read anything. I love being able to discuss books with people. We don't even need to read the same book, we can just yap to eachother about the current books we're reading, anything is fine! Would prefer someone with similar timezones but anythings okay. I'm currently reading The Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula K. Le Guin if you want to join me in that because I'm still at the startish. I love talking to people and making new friends :) I would prefer to talk on discord but I can make exceptions for sure.

The cover has two characters on opposing science and colors behind them the twist into the center of the cover, I cannot find it, but I know it exists I don’t know if it’s out yet.
