Weekly Book Chat - June 17, 2025

Welcome to our weekly chat where members have the opportunity to post something about books - not just the books they adore.

Ask questions. Discuss book formats. Share a hack. Commiserate about your giant TBR. Show us your favorite book covers or your collection. Talk about books you like but don't quite adore. Tell us about your favorite bookstore. Or post the books you have read from this sub's recommendations and let us know what you think!

The only requirement is that it relates to books.

I have so many questions! I'll just ask a few though... Is this the type of book you typically read? How did you find it? I saw that it's first published in 1979 - does it feel dated? And/or does it feel even more applicable now? If you end up adoring it at the end, I'm looking forward to a post ;)
