What book comps are you looking for?
A chance to discover a comp for your favorite books!
Hi all!
First, I’d like to let you all know that one of my main intentions with Itsbooktalk & More is to create a community of readers here who can share book recommendations, conversation, & more:) I have many ideas that I’m working on to facilitate this regular connection and interaction, but today I’d like to start off with a question for you - what books would you love finding book comps (i.e. book comparisons) for?
I think most of you know that I love to research, but I want to offer a bit more for this topic. I’ll use my many research sources, plus the upgraded Storygraph Plus feature that I pay for to help get comps for your favorite book(s). Just leave the book titles in the comments! If you are a paid subscriber, you have the option of sending me a DM or emailing me anytime to request a book comp and/or personalized recommendation.
I appreciate your support and I’m so excited for us all to continue getting to know each other!
What was the last book you gave 5 ⭐️ to and why? If you'd like to leave your book comp requests here, just leave the title and author:)
My last 5 ⭐️ read was Custom of the Country by Edith Wharton. This was a book club reading with Novel Pairings for the month of February which heightened the reading experience. It was written in 1913 and takes place during the new industrialized America. The protagonist Undine Spragg acts like a selfish, uncaring shallow person, who will do anything to climb her way to the top of society’s social and money scene. Wharton wrote this story right around the time she was planning to leave the US for France.
The story is based on Undine’s manipulations and schemes to climb her way to the top. This book surprised me in all of the right ways. Family drama, New York culture/society, business world and a close look at the main characters. I loved it!!!😍
