I have a pretty bad memory when it comes to remembering the appearances of characters in books, usually because it’s mentioned once or twice and then mostly just briefly throughout the book again.

I was wondering if anyone knew a site that had like just the descriptions of characters from books, lifted from the text even without spoilers.

I’d like to start making notes going forward for myself when reading but I’m so far into The Way of Kings now that it’s quite difficult to backtrack for character descriptions.

Any help is much appreciated, don’t even know if what I’m looking for exists but it sounds super handy, to me anyway.

Cheers. ^^

I’ll start, for the moment mine are

• The Secret History by Donna Tartt
• All Systems Red by Martha Wells, and the series itself
• Empire of the Vampire by Jay Kristoff
• The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller

I recently updated my kobo devices and saw that there’s a Google drive option now for storing books elsewhere, for the time being I’ve just been using calibre and moving files over myself, would there be any concerns to host non drm ebooks from mam on a Google drive if I’m only sharing it with like one person.

Cheers^^

I’m currently using Memmy and it’s giving me Apollo vibes but I’m open to testing out other apps ^^

Idk how to explain it and I imagine it’s been said plenty of times by now but it’s just, way easier to engage with posts here, usually on Reddit I’d just ignore the whole commenting aspect and just scroll through media.

I like this change, it reminds me of older social media platforms I used to use that were fairly small, player.me for instance.
