Are there any sub communities you’d recommend?
I’m trying to increase my subscriptions. I was wondering if there are any sub communities the community would recommend. As an example, fantasy sub genre (epic fantasy, cozy fantasy, progression fantasy, et Al). Or specific author or series communities?

Most books there seem to come from people cleaning their parents’ house when they have died. Because the fantasy genre has not been mainstream, these “inheritances” almost...
Rereading books you read 20 years ago

What surprised me the most, is that some books still hold up while others have become...
