  • What do you love about reading?

    This is such a vague question, but I want to know what everyone loves about reading. Whether you read classics, cowboy romances, or non fiction. Feel free to get as deep and as personal as you want. For me, it’s being able to get lost in a world for a few hours. I love the art of just becoming someone new, even if it isn’t for very long, and exploring worlds I’ll never know to exist.

  • Describe you favorite book/s badly

    So, I've seen a few videos of people doing this and I thought it would be funny to see you all's answers! Describe your favorite book, but in the WORST way possible. Like so badly. You can tell which book it is or just let people try and guess.

    When do repeated details in a book become a problem?

    Lately I’ve been seeing more and more forum posts talking about characters or the narration repeating details throughout the book and how it feels like the author doesn’t trust readers to remember them.

    Unless it’s egregious (stated multiple times on a page or every few pages) it’s not something I’ve ever noticed or cared about much since I know readers miss or forget important details. Or maybe even brushed a statement off as something unimportant only for it to be a big deal later.

    So out of curiosity, when does this repetition go from being something important to the character that they’re constantly thinking about to “this author thinks I’m incapable of remembering anything” and how likely are you to notice it?
