I have FOMO. Like everyone else, I have a growing TBR and when I see book forum posts from my TBR list appear in the feed and there are spoilers, I want to click them. It's like an itch. But I don't because I don't want to ruin the magic for myself. Perhaps we can get a face emoji 😀😍🥳🧐🤬or a scale of "positive, neutral, negative" on the post, so it can inform the vibes of the book as it progresses? So I get a better sense of the book. Would make a great graph once you have enough data as well. I feel like this would also entice me to add a book to my TBR since I see posts from people I follow that I may not have known about. Would anyone else find this useful? Or would that spoil the magic for you?

GUY I NEED NEED NEEEDDDD A PRINCESS x KNIGHT TROPE BOOK. I BEG. thank you for coming to my ted talk {spice preferable but no required}

I was just recently was able to meet and get my books signed by my recently favourite author Bora Chung. I was so happy. But I am also sad because so many of my favourite authors are dead or are Japanese who I probably will not get to ever meet. Anyone have any good stories of authors they got to meet? Or authors who you wish you could have met?

I just did this on Instagram with physical books, but I thought it might be fun to see what others can come up with! These are all books I physically own because I wanted to take a picture, but I'd say it counts digitally if a book is one you've read or is on your TBR whether you own the book or not! Here's mine, I regretted the long username a little. I didn't expect it to be so hard to find enough E's lol. (now my goal is to read them all this year, luckily I have a good start). A - Artemis by Andy Weir P - Phantasma by Kaylie Smith R - Reckless by Lauren Roberts I - IT by Stephen King L - Lord of the Rings by JRR Tolkien T - Tress of the Emerald Sea by Brandon Sanderson H - the Hobbit by JRR Tolkien E - Eragon by Christopher Paolini B - the Bone Season by Samantha Shannon O - One Dark Window by Rachel Gillig O - Our Infinite Fates by Laura Steven K - the Kaiju Preservatjon Society by John Scalzi Q - Queen of Shadows by Sarah J Maas U - Us Dark Few by Alexis Patton E - Empire of Storms by Sarah J Maas E - Encyclopedia of Faeries by Heather Fawcett N - Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo

Usually, I will wait until the next day before I actually commit to reading a new book. I feel weird about starting a new book on the same exact day. I feel like I need to sleep over it before it's truly over

So does anyone else actively seek out spoilers or is it just me?? For instance, I had a friend who read a book I was interested in - romance with POC main characters that seemed to be a why choose - and I asked them for a full plot rundown because I wanted to be sure it was something I would enjoy and not a case of a book description fishing for reads. I absolutely 100% believe hiding things behind a spoiler tag is something people should be doing to avoid revealing anything to those who've yet to read the book. But with the limited time I have for reading, and a TBR that's already long enough to reach the moon, sometimes I just want to know if the time I invest in a book is going to be worth it to me. Anyway, anyone else do this or something similar??
