[close] The theme of our book club is a quest to find the secrets of eternal joy and never ending splendor. Where should we look? All sincere suggestions are welcome.

[close] Bookmarked & Unbothered is a little corner of the book world where the only rule is: read what you want and what you enjoy. You don’t have to read books about trauma and politics. You don’t have to read books by the latest award winners or types of authors. There’s no required reading list, no guilt for liking the same romance or fantasy plots, smut or clean, and absolutely no judgment for DNF-ing. Whether you're into morally gray, small-town love, spicy reverse harems, or rereading your comfort series for the tenth time, you're in the right place. Here, it's all about joy over pressure, vibes over validation, and being proudly, permanently bookmarked & unbothered.
