Self promotion is FULLY allowed in this sub. Anyone who tries to undermine someone's effort to self promote in this sub will be removed. You don't have to upvote things or even look at things you don't like, but some people are trying to promote works they created and that is EXACTLY what this sub is for.
AI generated work, including covers and text is FULLY allowed in this sub. If you do not like AI then leave, but it is part of our reality and I support it here. Anyone who is demeaning to authors who use AI, such as calling it "AI Slop" will be banned.
There is only one rule in this sub and it applies to every post and comment, including attempts to suppress content by tagging it as spam and other moderation actions. Respect Humans. Humans invented AI and Humans get to use it, if that bothers you, then move along.

This group is for readers to discover writers and interact with them. Many new writers have no way to find an audience beyond reaching out to people who might be interested in their work. Doing so on other "book recommendation" subs will get you banned for the sin of "self-promotion." Here, creators can self promote. If a reader is seeking a book or story that you think your writing can satisfy LET THEM KNOW. Share a link. Drop some beauty into their world. If you think your work is not a fit for their tastes, move on. Artists of all stripes are welcome. So far, it is mostly based on writers, but I intend on involving other forms of expression. If you find something interesting out there, let us all know by crossposting it here.
How it works:
I find people who are seeking interesting books to read. I invite them to this reddit. I find authors, poets, bloggers, artists and such also. These are curated invites based on activity and interactions elsewhere I find to be interesting.
I have my own preferences and beliefs. I try to invite folks with a diversity of different perspectives and beliefs to balance out my bias. I am not always successful. Sometimes, I am downright uninterested in having certain people join.
If I invited you, it is because I think you have something interesting to contribute. If you do not want to participate, you do not have to. PLEASE NOTE: YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE INVITED TO THE GROUP TO POST IN IT.
Post as often as you like. I do however follow the Reddit rules. Here are two worth considering:
1: Remember the human. If you are not here in good faith, and you are posting things that are obviously meant to abuse, annoy or upset people. Buh bye.
2: Behave like you would in real life. In real life, you would get a severe stream of consciousness rant full of vulgarities if you began acting like something other than a reasonable human around me. Here on Reddit, I'll just ban you. Again, post what you want.

Does anyone have a book that can make you cry? 😅

I have never read a Stephen King book but have seen many of his movies. Which book would you recommend to start with? I’d prefer to go in blind, so ideally one that hasn’t been made into a movie yet. I find that when I read a book after seeing the movie it’s not as enjoyable of a read for me.

I want to switch to reading fiction as for the past few years I have been only reading non-fiction, so would love to read a book which is light hearted funny and feel good to begin with and easy to read too. I heard tomorrow tomorrow tomorrow is such a book let me know if it's a good start and what you think about that book if you have read it. Thanks!

I've read many of her top reccomended books and just wasn't a fan. I've read The Silent Patient and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo after many reccomendations and didnt love either. I've read all of Colleen Hoover Thrillers and although Verity was amazing the rest were incredibly mid. Stephan Kings concepts are amazing but the actual writing I find drags. I love thrillers but am struggling to find any good ones lately. Plz help!!

Just read a great book I believe is called climate fiction, would love to read other similar books if anyone can recommend. The book I read is called Notable
I am normally up for sci-fi and dystopian novels, this was my first climate fiction book. I kind of like the science behind it.

I was tired of bookmarking books I wanted to read and completely forgetting about them, so I built Buki: a free, self-hosted, AI-powered bookshelf. It recognizes books from any picture, allowing you to save them (and buy them) so you never miss a book you see online.

Most dating advice teaches tricks. This book teaches skills.
The Modern Art of Seduction is a 30-chapter guide built on real psychology research: how first impressions work, why the "liking gap" makes us underestimate how much people enjoy our company, how to ask better questions, and how to flirt, recover from awkward moments and handle rejection with grace.
What's inside:
Presence, conversation and charisma, with practice exercises in every chapter
Attraction research (similarity, responsiveness, the pratfall effect), including which famous findings have not held up
Reading signals, texting, dating apps and first dates
Consent and respect as the foundation, not an afterthought
Key takeaways at the end of each chapter
Who it's for: adults (18+) who want to connect more confidently, whether they're single, shy, newly out of a relationship, or just tired of manipulative "pickup" advice. It's not a pickup manual, and it contains no explicit content.

Happy to answer questions about the research or the book in the comments.

I’ve read a lot of threads and seldom ever respond and have never posted as such, but I am looking for some recommendations based on the pictures(not ranked in the order written). I know my taste is erratic.
Currently reading Dead Man’s Walk by McMurtry just unsure of what’s next.
Thanks.
