New books hitting my Pangoshop! Mostly classics and fantasy! https://pangobooks.com/bookstore/sarah605940

What did people think of Dan Simmons Abominable? I’ve been craving a hair raising arctic horror. A lot of the horror I’ve read recently has really let me down with shying away from actually committing to the horror aspect or taking a safe route. I don’t want to be let down again, especially since it’s a longer book. I did enjoy his book, The Terror.

Can a mature 16 year old read this?

If you were to compile a list of the 5-10 best fantasies ever, what would be on it? Rules are: Any 5-10 entries. Standalone or series. Any age rating. You can list the whole series. But standalones must be limited to 1 entry per series. Can be any fantasy sub-genre. EXCEPT romantasy. I don't consider romantasy to be actual fantasy. It's romance in a fantasy setting. Feel free to number them or not.

Thanks to you guys I just read The Glass Castle. At the beginning when it's explained the mom is a painter I said to myself, 'I wonder if she paints so many paintings she has to hang them 3 or 4 deep across any free wall space?' Then later in the book it's revealed that she does. I swear I read a different book where a woman does that, except I think the other woman painted on cardboard. Can anyone help me figure out if there is a different book where a woman paints this much? I'm going crazy.

Okay. Should I read this?

I’m on page 215 of This Woven Kingdom and am slightly confused/not quite into it but still interested. Does it get better?

I've asked a similar question before. In a sci-fi setting. Near or far future, doesn't matter. Technology permitting, what types of cybernetic enhancements would you provide soldiers to improve their capabilities and effectiveness?

Got my hands on an ARC and, only a few chapters in, I’m already obsessed 😭. I loved Addie LaRue, and Bury Our Bones is confirming that I’m just a V.E. Schwab fandom convert. So I’m curious to know: which of her books should I read next?

Ok so I’m trying to start Binding 13 and I’m just so confused about everything. How old are they? And just the language in general is very confusing for me to understand even with a full glossary.

I'm seeing several discussions lately on booktube. Lots of people claiming/complaining that the publishing industry as a whole are essentially abandoning men. I'm sure you can imagine many of the complaints are much more empassioned than others. I'm wondering what others thoughts are on this. Have you noticed this? Do you agree/disagree? Why do you think it is? Etc...

about 10 seconds into this audiobook but anybody notice the narrator inhales at the start of every sentence. I’ve listened to a 100 audiobooks it’s never been so pronounced I can’t focus on the plot just syncing with her rapid breathing.

Brosephs I just finished the whole “one of us is lying” series and tell me why I disliked the fist AND last one. Really want to talk and get my feelings out bout how I feel on these books . Lmk ur opinions

Hey y’all! I’m looking for an app that is a timer and while that timer is going you can’t leave the app? But once you pause the timer you can? I think this would really help me stay focused on reading and I swear I heard someone talking about an app just like this!

I just recently (3 days ago) finished this book and I can’t stop thinking about it. This is my first Pen book and I’ve already read Punk 57 and got Corrupt but I think Credence will stay on top as my favorite. I know the material isn’t everyone’s type and people have problems with Kaleb but man do I love a broken messed up dark character so he has my heart. It was just more emotional than I was expecting going in. How did y’all feel about this book?

What apps do y’all use to track reading data? I really want to make a Book Wrapped for 2025 but don’t know how to start

I’ve been reading through the Dresden files series for a while, and I’m now on the 7th book. I absolutely love this series every book gets better and better! What are y’all’s opinions on it?

Who has finished Onyx Storm?? I’m reeling and pissed at Xaden. That ending 😩😩😩.

Just finished lightlark and was super disappointed that Isla ended up with Oro. Anyone else feel that it should have been Grim? (Please don’t spoil the rest of the series)

Why are books written in present tense? Ever? This book has a great write up and I was super excited, but I've having a hard time getting into it with the tense.

I'm really on the fence about DNFing this book. Why is the MMC Mike Martin every time he's mentioned? It's so weird to full name only one character in a book and it keeps pulling me right out of the story. Thoughts?

After a comment from @drownedkraken, I'm wondering. What do you like 8n book cover art? What catches/draws your eye? A detailed, artistic image? Or a newer style, simplistic design?

I’m about to start quicksilver if anyone would like to read it with me!

What is everyone reading I'm currently reading one of us is back the third book in the one of us is lying trilogy

YALL, FEARLESS COVER IS RELEASED, I AM GOING TO DIE IF PAE AND KAI DONT END UP TOGETHER.

I’m having a really hard time finishing The Lotus Empire. I’ve read the 1st and 2nd book and while they were slow I feel like this one is specifically painful. Any tips on how to push through?

Just finished The Martian! Any thoughts!
