This week I want to introduce a topic to discuss that I see often. Cliffhangers. I tend to read series, and a lot of books in series tend to leave off on a cliffhanger. While I have a strong opinion of my own, I’ve learned that if I […]
If you grew up like I did, you probably heard “don’t judge a book by its cover” all the time. Granted, the phrase typically refers to anything other than books, and was used all the time throughout my younger years to remind us not to judge something (or […]
I was never even aware that people visualize things differently until only a few years ago. This week I want us all to discuss how we visualize what we’re reading, and I’m hoping that you all feel free to chime in. The idea of visualization while reading wasn’t […]
There are so many aspects of today’s topic that we can discuss. Audiobooks happens to be a really broad topic, but I’m pretty sure you all know that I’m talking about the way that gatekeeping is used to say that listening to audiobooks doesn’t count as “real reading.” […]

It’s time for another Bookish Discussion Sunday already, and this is a topic that used to come up regularly in the bookish community. I haven’t seen it resurface recently, but I have been limiting my time on social media as much as I can. I’d also like to […]
