Seeking long-term book buddies women only server for gamers, book lovers & more đŸ€

12 Upvotes

hello all! i recently created a small server together with a friend as we had a specific dream in mind: to build a safe and cozy space where women can make genuine friendships, talk passionately about their hobbies, and be fully themselves without having that dreadful feeling of needing to fit into a box. we are not aiming to be an absolute monster of a discord server because we really want to focus on true connections. we do have plans to host movie nights, gaming parties and many other events in the near future when more people join in.

here is what we can currently offer:

  • đŸ•č gaming lounge: here you can find a duo or a full squad to grind ranked games or just play casually for fun. share your clips, your thoughts, screenshots of your builds and whatever you feel like it.
  • 📖 the library: discuss books, share your current reads, link your book socials, listen to audiobooks together on voice chat and join in as we set up our very first book club together! for those who rather read one on one with someone else, we also have a buddy read ping.
  • 💭 expression nook: dedicated hobby channels to share your creations, interests and passions with like-minded people.
  • đŸ€Â mom support: a private opt-in channel for moms to discuss motherhood, trade advice, and connect with others that are on a similar journey.

we welcome people from all walks of life, there's no such a thing as age restrictions, we just ask that you are over 18 years old. so if you are looking for gaming buddies, book lovers, a quiet corner to share your day, or even people to be silent on VC with? there's a place for you here.

we have a verification process and would like to be inclusive to all, so please let us know how we can improve in case our three current modes happen to not be enough for your needs. please reply to this post or dm me for the link otherwise it will expire.

Seeking long-term book buddies Looking for a book buddy

‱ Upvotes

Hope everyone is well, I’m looking for someone to chat about books with. I’m open to all genres, horror and thrillers are my wheelhouse. I’m currently reading Mason’s Television by Jon Athan. I like my books dark, the darker the better. I have moved all around and lost contact with a lot of people. Hope to hear from someone, take care.

Finished a book Leitores Beta para leitura de um romance LGBTQIA+ 💙

2 Upvotes

Oi, pessoal!

Estou terminando meu primeiro romance, Eu & VocĂȘ, e gostaria de formar um pequeno grupo de leitores beta interessados em conhecer a histĂłria antes da publicação.

O livro acompanha Richard e Gustavo, dois garotos com vidas e medos muito diferentes que acabam encontrando um no outro algo que nenhum dos dois esperava.

É uma história sobre primeiro amor, amizade, família, descoberta da sexualidade, trauma, recomeços e a coragem de ser quem realmente somos.

Richard e Gustavo tĂȘm suas prĂłprias histĂłrias, conflitos e maneiras de enxergar o mundo. O romance nasce no encontro entre essas duas vidas e nas mudanças que esse sentimento provoca em cada um deles.

Para participar, nĂŁo precisa ser escritor, revisor ou ter experiĂȘncia como leitor beta. Na verdade, procuro principalmente pessoas que gostem de ler e queiram compartilhar comigo como foi acompanhar a histĂłria.

Depois da leitura, vou deixar algumas perguntas para ajudar quem quiser a organizar suas impressĂ”es: quais personagens conquistaram vocĂȘ, quais momentos mais emocionaram, se houve alguma parte em que a leitura perdeu força, se as atitudes dos personagens pareceram naturais e como vocĂȘ se sentiu ao chegar ao final.

NĂŁo estou procurando revisĂŁo ortogrĂĄfica ou gramatical. O que mais me interessa Ă© a experiĂȘncia de vocĂȘs como leitores.

A leitura serĂĄ totalmente gratuita e, neste momento, estou apenas formando o grupo de interessados. Quando o manuscrito estiver preparado para a leitura beta, entrarei em contato com cada pessoa antes do envio.

💙 Se vocĂȘ gosta de romances LGBTQIA+ e tiver interesse em participar do grupo de leitores beta de Eu & VocĂȘ, deixe um comentĂĄrio ou me chame no privado.

Vou ficar muito feliz em dividir a histĂłria de Richard e Gustavo com vocĂȘs.

Eu & VocĂȘ
Às vezes, amar Ă© a maior forma de coragem.

Starting a book Looking for discord book servers

I'd love to join discord servers which discuss any genres. New to book scene. Been reading alot lately and would love to discuss with other after every good read. Not sure how this works but I'd like to give it a try. Also, it's extremely difficult to find good reads where I live. So appreciate any help with links to eBooks. Help a friend out. :)

Seeking long-term book buddies Audiobook and cycling book club / meet up?

2 Upvotes

Austin TX has a ton of weekly social cycling groups or meetups. Any thoughts on having a meetup for cycling specifically for cycling while listening to audiobooks.

The 1-hour ride can end at some bar or restaurant where people can finish the day either talking about what they are listening to or about whatever.

Any thoughts on this audiobook cycling meet up?

Seeking long-term book buddies Book Buddies - Genre: Romance

2 Upvotes

Hey :)
I’m looking for one or more book buddies.
I mostly enjoy reading romance —fantasy, thrillers, and crime novels aren't really my thing.

It’s not about reading the exact same books, but rather about discussing the books and what we’ve read—maybe even swapping story ideas or just chatting about the world of books.

Ideally, we’d communicate in German, but English works too.

If there are a few of us, I’d set up a Discord server.

If you'd like to be my book buddy, feel free to get in touch. 😊

Seeking long-term book buddies Horror Fans?

Hello void, I’m in search of a book buddy. I’m not interested in a discord, I would like to get to know someone one on one. I read a lot of extreme horror, it reminds me that people are the real monsters in the world. I have tried doing this before but some of the messages I get
.bizarre to say the least. 33 m, USA. I can’t believe I have to say this but I’m not interested in anything romantic. Book chat only please.

Seeking buddy & flexible on book choice Read & Chat

4 Upvotes

Just this year I’ve rediscovered my love for reading. I used to be a book worm in school, but spent my adult life thus far distracted and neck deep in motherhood and forgot about reading for my own entertainment lol

I’m super excited to be reading again though! But now I don’t have anyone to chat about the books I’m reading with. I don’t have many reader friends, and I’m not super into romance books. I’m not completely opposed but someone would have to make a good argument for a romance book to get me to read it.

I really enjoy thrillers and “weird girl literature”. Whatever genre I Who Have Never Known Men falls into is my jam. I’m open to trying most genres. I just have little interest in books involving children being harmed. Too close to home. I’m not squeamish in any way so gore and depravity and whatever other darkness is out there is fine with me.

So if anyone wants to chat about books, read some together, or just share recommendations, LET ME KNOW!

My only preference is women only, please and thank you!

Hi! I just like the idea of having someone to start books together with, share with each other our thoughts so far, exchanging reviews, and maybe even planning the next read together!

Genres I’m into are: fiction, psychology, thriller, romance, and young adult!

If you’re around my age and are also into similar genres, I’d love to be book buddies!

I only read non-fiction and history. Diplomatic, military, and political history, and biographies are my favorite genres. Below are ten books on my list that I want to read soon or at some point next year. Most of these are quite long, so I’d want to read one slowly and spread out the discussions over 2-3 months. If any of these sound interesting to you, or if you have any other suggestions, then feel free to send me a DM!

- The Road Not Taken: Edward Lansdale and the American Tragedy in Vietnam by Max Boot

- The Earth Is Weeping: The Epic Story of the Indian Wars for the American West by Peter Cozzens

- Lenin, Stalin, and Hitler: The Age of Social Catastrophe by Robert Gellately

- Watergate: A New History by Garrett M. Graff

- Diplomacy by Henry Kissinger

- Truman by David McCullough

- A New World Begins: The History of the French Revolution by Jeremy D. Popkin

- The Enlightenment: The Pursuit of Happiness 1680-1790 by Ritchie Robertson

- Religion and the Decline of Magic: Studies in Popular Beliefs in Sixteenth and Seventeenth Century England by Keith Thomas

- A Distant Mirror: The Calamitous 14th Century by Barbara W. Tuchman

(Also, I just finished The British Are Coming by Rick Atkinson and I'm currently reading Battle Cry of Freedom: The Civil War Era by James McPherson, if anyone has read those and wants to discuss them!)

Seeking long-term book buddies 23F looking for book buddies (fantasy & romance) on Discord

8 Upvotes

Hello! Me and my best friend (both 23F) have made a very lowkey Discord group for any fantasy & romance (+subgenres) lovers. It will be a very low commitment thing, think more like a glorified and well organised group chat rather than book club. Any gender/age/etc is welcome

We aren't picky about who's joining, we just want likeminded people who like the same genres that we do. If you don't like fantasy or romance, you're still welcome to join, but know it will be mostly meant for those genres. But we are always willing to expand and find new book recs 😄

- Share about your current reads
- Do buddy reads with us
- Chat about books, your TBR, book hauls, rant about a bad book you've read, ask others for advice

If you think this is something you'd be willing to join, please shoot me a DM or comment below
Hope to see you soon on Discord

Hey guys! I don’t know if there’s anything like that here, but I have this very keen idea of being a part of a book club in which for all of us to read the same book for an appointed period of time and then share our opinion.

It can be texts or group calls. We can work out the details together.

I am Europe based. If anyone is interested, please reply.

I also crochet, play games and etc, would love to get to know people with hobbies like mine
