bookbug ⤴︎

Taken from the club's homepage: BOOKBUG is a digital book club that is centered around discussions and reviews. Each month members will read a book and publish their thoughts to their personal sites. We chose to set up our club this way in order to give members more freedom and to encourage self expression.

You can check out the bookclub member list here!

* Reviews to be added as soon as I catch up with the reading list

personal favorites ⤴︎

I am making this virtual bookshelf partly because I'm still grieving the loss of my Goodreads account since 2009. A big fuck you to Goodreads and Amazon for deleting my account randomly due to your fuckass website. Yet another reason why we should own our data. It feels horrible because I've had that since I was a teenager and it was literally an archive of everything I've read. It's disappointing and upsetting, to say the least. So, instead of listing every book I've read, I'm keeping a list of my personal 5-star books that I still remember to this day ever since I started reading when I was 9 years old. It's not that the book is flawless, it's more like if the book has altered my brain chemical due to superb characters that I was geniunely rooting for or if it resonated with me wholly and emotionally, or sometimes it was just the perfect book at the perfect timing back then.

2024 reading challenge ⤴︎

This year I pledged to read 24 books... and I'm definitely wayyy behind schedule. LOL I thought 2 books per month is already a very relaxed goal to aim for but I underestimated my attention span. I'll definitely do my best to catch up!
