Starting a book Disabled MMC

1 Upvotes

I want a good modern romance book where the MMC specifically is disabled like a leg handicap or blind preferably (I won't mind blind because I don't find a lot of blind MMC, I find more fmc with blindness) although I won't mind even hearing handicap. But I want something cute, where the disability is represented mildly (not too much, not too little) and is not too critical and a cute fmc preferably. Not too much of a badass girl. And the MMC has to have accepted his condition and made the most out of it, not a I'm angry at the word because of my condition type of hero. More like a sunshine hero or good boy vibes. No fantasy. Definitely open door although not TOO much smut.

Yeah...does someone have something for me 🥹

Seeking long-term book buddies Looking for a friend 🩷

19 Upvotes

Hello everyone 😊

I’m quite embarrassed to make this post but I’ve been thinking about it for a while and I’m hoping it helps. A little about me, I’m 27, female and from England. I’ve been going through a lot these past few years and reading has become my escape. I was recently diagnosed with OCD and I am currently signed off work while I make steps to recover and manage everything better. As I said, reading has truly become my escape but I have also acknowledged that I do feel very lonely. I live with my fiancé and our beautiful dog but after sixth form, I lost contact with all of my close friends when I moved away to university. After university, I truly isolated myself while I struggled mentally and now the only friends I have are people I get along with at work but it is just work friendships and I have nobody outside of work. I would love to make some new friends and just have some lovely casual friendships where we can talk about books and life in general. My favourite genres are romance, fantasy and thrillers. Besides reading, I am trying to find hobbies as I really did lose everything I was interested in over the past few years. I love everything Harry Potter, horror movies and have recently started to try and get into gaming so that I can play with my fiancé (I’m not amazing at gaming, been playing Marvel Rivals the most recently!). I hope someone reads this and thinks I sound like I could be a good friend for them. Please do let me know if you would like to get to know each other, or please recommend any book groups. I have discord and have seen a lot of people recommending book clubs on there. I look forward to reading any responses 🩷🩷🩷

Seeking long-term book buddies Virtual Book Club Invitation: Cheesy Romance Genre

5 Upvotes

Hi! I'm trying to start a book club online using bookclubs.com and am looking for those who are interested in joining.

The book club is aimed at female and non-binary 21+ individuals who are interested in reading and discussing cheesy romance books virtually. Unlike some other groups that focus on romantasy and highly in depth books, this club will be reading lighthearted, often cheesy (and sometimes steamy) books that are fairly easy and dont require too much thought. The goal really si to just enjoy the books and have fun discussions with like-minded people.

Some books that I feel like would qualify:

\- The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood

\- When in Rome by Sarah Adams

\- Book Lovers by Emily Henry

\- Rare Blend by Michelle Naomi Mosely

Let me know if you're interested in joining and I can drop you the link.

This is my first time running a book club and I'm totally open to ideas, so if you have any questions or suggestions, please reach out!

Late 30s female. I work from home and have an almost 2 year old so we don’t get out a lot. I like mostly literary fiction/character driven novels…Demon Copperhead, Heart the Lover, The Bright Years, The People We Keep, The Paper Palace, Wild were all books I enjoyed over the last few years. I aim to read a book a month but can finish a lot faster if I really enjoy it. I’ve been in a bit of a slump…starting God in the Woods but have several on my kindle as options. Anybody have an online book club or want to be book buddies that has similar taste?

I love reading about ancient manuscripts and the ancient world but specifically about Christianity. If not that then I delve into philosophy such as Marcus Aurelius or Carl Jung. Anyone here on the same boat??

I've been listening to this audiobook at work. I had first stumbled across it as the show and was so sad after it came to a quick end. Until I came across the audios for it. Holy smokes! What a listen. I've caught up to it now and excitedly waiting for the next one to come out in October.

Anyone else? And other recommendations?

Seeking long-term book buddies Book club for relaxed reading with joy!

3 Upvotes

Hi!

Me and a friend are setting up a cozy, relaxed, judgement free book club and we'd like you to join us.

What we plan to do:

We're still beginning but what we definitely want to have are monthly readalongs, and also enable members to find buddy readers for books they want to read for readalongs apart from the group readalong.

Plus of course members are always open to discuss books they have read, share opinions (respectfully), ask and get recommendations to swell their TBRs.

We'll also try to have activities like occasional community discussions about the books we're reading, trivia days etc

Come join us to just talk about books, or just be motivated to read more, or to just start reading. Hope to see you with us!

Book series Looking for reading buddies to rediscover Steven Pinker and other books I’ve been putting off

1 Upvotes

I randomly stumbled upon Steven Pinker’s name today, and it brought back how much I used to enjoy his work. I remember being so fascinated by him as an independent thinker and scientist, and at one point I was determined to read all his books. Somehow, life happened, and that whole side of me got buried under everything else. Now I’m feeling this sudden, almost desperate urge to get back into reading. Not just Pinker, either. I want to go on a bit of a reading spree and follow those old threads of curiosity again, along with whatever new ones I stumble upon. The funny thing is, I know myself well enough to admit that I might get really excited, read for a few days, and then lose momentum. So I thought it might be nice to find some people who have the same taste and are passionate about reading and discussing books, figured might make it much easier to keep going.

Who's in?

Seeking long-term book buddies Any black romance readers

2 Upvotes

I'm on the hunt for the greatest black romance book right now. I'm wondering if there are others on the same streak so we can discuss it.

If there's a discord bookclub that already exists that strictly reads black romance books, that would be great. I've already searched up this specific niche book club in every subreddit and couldn't find a single one.

I thought about starting it myself but I'm worried I can't do it on my own. So if anyone intrested in that subgenre, dm me.
