  • Are you a picky reader?

    Something I'm curious about: do you find it easy or hard to find books that you like? How do you categorize books you've read?

    I'm interested because I'm such a non-picky reader it's a bit ridiculous. For example, in my mind I categorize books I've read like this: Books that I could relate to on a very personal level (rare) Books that I hated so much I felt they were a waste of time (rare) Every other book

    In the last category there are of course differences to how much I liked the book, but it's very rare for a book to be so bad that I DNF it or put in the hate category. I also often read books I know I wont even enjoy, for example I've read almost all of the Bridgerton books, although they are such garbage I could write multiple essays about it, and I cannot for the life of me understand why I didn't stop reading after the first one!

    For this reason I think it's sooo hard to rate books, which I think is also why I never joined other book sites before PG. To me most of the time a book is a book so I don't really know how I should rate it and I think I just enjoy the act of reading, rather than enjoying the actual book if that makes sense??

    In a way it's nice though, because I always have something to read since the book doesn't even have to be good!

  • Let's pause the whole publishing industry for like, a few months

    I need new books to stop coming out for a little while, because I have a gigantic backlog of books that I want to get through but the publishing industry keeps dangling shiny new releases in front of my nose and novelty makes my brain tingle and I am weak-willed
