Was thinking to myself how I have this ridiculous habit of intentionally speeding through book blurbs trying not to learn too much, leaving a book on my TBR for ages, starting to read it going off the memory of the blurb, and then being completely thrown by what the book is actually about because I realize I didn't actually know. Case in point: started the castle knoll files series today, DEAD CERTAIN the MC was an old male detective. It is about a 25 year old girl and her kooky aunt. This is abundantly clear in the blurb and I have no idea how I misremembered that badly. I spent the first 20 pages going "oh? Oh?? Oh!" So anyway, that got me thinking, do any of y'all have reading quirks like this that are ultimately harmless but kind of weird? A beige flag, if you will?

Ahh booktok, so controversial. But we love it anyways hehe. Because I thrive on highly opinionated discussion, please don't hold back! (BUT, because we are all kind, educated readers, let's not be hateful towards people who have different opinions than we do ;) That being said, I'll go first: *inhales slowly* Fourth Wing is meh and Iron flame was almost impossible to get through... the hype, I just don't understand it!! Please tell me I'm not the only one.
