Week 2: Bookchat Board

Hi, I read so much and share it with no one really. I will occasionally read the same book as someone else (mostly my parents) and we will talk about it a little , but nothing in depth. 

My youngest and I both enjoy reading fantasy and often share books. We spend time together watching BookTube and love shopping for books together. 

I feel lucky to date someone who is a reader we go back and forth with recommendations. I have found many new books because of her 

I started a virtual book club with some friends at the beginning of the pandemic, and we talk about a different book every month or so! It has been a good way to read some books that I would have no, otherwise.

I enjoy reading with my 2 daughters, they devour books.  As a busy mom who once read about 3 books a week, I have *really* slowed down. My SO isnt a reader.  I was also raised by a reader, and aim to do the same - even if time does not allow, 30 mins a day is great.

My bestie is a book dragon, and I love her for it. All the books, all the time, all the shares and knowledge.

I share with some of my friends but even then they’re not as into reading as I am. I started posting books I read each month on Instagram stories which have sparked some conversations about books. I also follow a bunch of people who post their reads as well so I’ll comment and share my thoughts if I’ve read the same book or the book is on my list to read. I just find Instagram a really good way to connect with people about shared interests :)

I usually share my current reads with my partner, and sometimes recommend books to him. Sometimes he reads them, sometimes not. I like to share book recommendations with my mom, but she reads mostly thrillers so we stick to that. I'm trying to talk to more people in my life about what I'm reading, and sometimes I'm surprised to find out someone I know well reads often but never talks about it!

My mom and I will share book recommendations back and forth. 

My sister and I used to do a mini-book club together where we would read the same book. We haven't done it in a while though but this post reminded me of it and I would love to bring it back!

J'adore ce spectacle ! Êtes-vous excité pour la prochaine saison?

very diverse

I completely agree with you; when I reread a book after a while, I learn new things.

Because everyone grows and changes gradually, returning to a previous book would have been a new adventure.

My tbr is too long to take time to re-read books, but I have definitely read books on my own and then years later, read them to my kids. Harry Potter is a great example. 

I have a couple bookshelves full of books I have read more than once.  While I do read a lot of new books only the once, these are always there should I need a comfort read, another visit to Pern or Narnia or Westeros, and some time visiting with old friends.

Hey! 

I have heard so many good things about the novel. I personally haven’t read it but my friends have. You should definitely try a novel called These Violent Delights. It has very interesting character development. Let me know if you decide to read it! :)
