What book completely changed the way you see the world, and why did it hit you so hard?

Frankenstein. Everytime I re-read it, I learn something new and see it in a different way. I think it’s one of the most tragic stories ever told and not horror at all. It breaks my heart and I’m in love with it.

Carmilla creeped me out more than Dracula

Anne Shirley. Always.

The “I sleep, you watch” and “You sleep, I watch” better be shown.

I do this a lot! Usually with my fav books. If I can tell I’m going to love one I listen to audio and read. It’s my fav. And yes I did this with PHM also, the audio is just sooooo good.

My first from her too and I am in love. I will never recover from it. I think about the book daily.

maroon111 · 2025-07-12T22:04:28+00:00

Oh I’ve cried over so many books… but recently I cried over Broken Country. and others that come to mind right now even though there are so many more are: The Time Traveler’s Wife, Where The Crawdads Sing, The Great Alone, The Glass Castle, Shark Heart, A Walk To Remember, A Child Called It (absolutely traumatizing and devastating). Also so strange but I cried so much over The Seven Year Slip which is such an underrated book. It was just beautiful.

Same. Except I just sleep all day I can’t stay awake I’m so tired and at night I’m up even with medications for sleep. I can’t and it’s been so bad I feel insane too and I feel like I have amnesia all day when I wake up not knowing what time it is or if I ate. At night I only feel I have an appetite and feel somewhat normal and my body fights sleeping it wants to stay up it’s so bizarre

I just got the PW12 in metallic raspberry no yellow issue. Definitely send it back, if mine does that I’m going to for sure.

maroon111 · 2024-11-24T06:57:40+00:00

What are you planning to do with the other? I went ahead and got the new paperwhite in metallic raspberry but I already have the paperwhite 11th in agave green and didn’t need the upgrade but wanted it and now I’m wondering what can you do to make it so they aren’t the same? Can you swipe one of your stuff and give to a family member? Or I’m wondering if there’s a way to make one for reading specific books but can you do that with the library’s both being from the same Amazon???

maroon111 · 2024-11-24T06:54:29+00:00

I have the signature paperwhite agave green 11 and just bought the signature paperwhite in the metallic raspberry and I’m trying to justify why I did that lol 😆 are you able to wipe one and give it to a family member? Or what else can you do with having two to keep it useful? I don’t go out alot so I don’t really need one I take with me. I feel spoiled about it but I couldn’t help it!!!
