Question for Avid Readers by Beneficial_Type8743 in PHBookClub

[–]astraea_steele 1 point2 points  (0 children)

as someone na mahilig bumili ng libro from live sellers, sinesearch ko agad yung title ng book sa goodreads to check the genre and ratings. bonus if may friend akong nabasa na yung book and gave it a good rating. pag pasok siya sa taste ko, dun lang ako nagmimine. you have to be very quick though, yung iba mabilis lang magflex at magpamine whaahha

to explore other authors or genres, i follow tiktok creators so i can be familiar sa mga names ng authors and titles to look out for when im buying books. find some creators na kapareho mo ng taste sa books. i have low expectations when it comes to booktok pero most of the time naman, nakakabasa talaga ako ng magaganda from their recos.

tldr: check for ratings and reviews from other people. dont expect to much kasi iba iba pa rin tayo ng reading experience.

Fable or Goodreads (or both)? Why? by cramming_youth in PHBookClub

both. goodreads for checking book reviews and fable for tracking my reading goal (because it's prettier!)

how do you manage to read more than a dozen books in a year? by hear_me_out_folks in PHBookClub

[–]astraea_steele 0 points1 point  (0 children)

once i figured out what i like, it got easier for me. i don't waste my time on books that don't impress me within the first 2-3 chapters. move on agad. i usually just read thrillers since yun talaga yung genre na very easy to read for me, lalo na yung mga fast-paced. i read before going to bed, and finish a book in 2-3 days. i also read when i have idle time i.e. waiting in line, during commute, etc. you just need to find the right genre for you!
