The Annex is an ongoing collection of essays that explore how books shape our thoughts, challenge our assumptions, and shift the way we see the world. These personal reflections explore the ideas sparked during or after reading. It’s a space for discourse, curiosity, and connection, where books become more than stories, and reading becomes a lens through which we navigate daily life.

The Gallery is a collaborative storytelling experience where readers become co-authors. Each story begins with a rich world and a story framework, complete with main characters and a general setting, but what happens next is up to you. Through weekly prompts and community votes, the plot unfolds one twist at a time. New worlds launch Fall 2025.

Book Reviews at The Obsidian Library go beyond summaries— they explore the deeper ideas, emotional impact, and cultural relevance each book brings to the table. Whether fiction or nonfiction, every review is crafted to uncover what the book says and what it means. Expect thoughtful analysis, honest impressions, and reflections that connect literature to the larger questions of life.
