QTOD: What's a series you need to finish?⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ My list of unfinished series is pretty long. Like, REALLY long. I have a habit of either refusing to read the last book to avoid endings, or forgetting to keep up with the series.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ 𝘋𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘛𝘶𝘳𝘯 𝘈𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥 happens to fall in the second category. I read it when it first came out and just forgot to keep track of when the sequels were published. Fast forward 8 years or so and I still haven't finished the trilogy even though I enjoyed reading the first book.

QTOD: What's a book you're scared to read?⁣ ⁣ QTOD: What's a book you're scared to read?⁣ ⁣ I'm scared to read a whole lot of books. I think it's pretty clear I'm a scaredy cat, both when it comes to reading creepy books, and also really hyped ones.⁣ ⁣ 𝘚𝘶𝘣𝘭𝘪𝘮𝘦 is just one of many books I've never really gotten the guts to read. Look, I may love Christina Lauren's romantic comedies, but this isn't one of them. Just look at how creepy this cover is! (What’s sad is that the synopsis doesn’t actually seem too spooky but I cannot get over this cover. 😅)⁣ ⁣ —⁣ ⁣ I managed to finish reading 𝘚𝘩𝘢𝘥𝘰𝘸 & 𝘉𝘰𝘯𝘦 yesterday, and not going to lie, I'm kind of disappointed. I'm planning to start 𝘚𝘪𝘦𝘨𝘦 & 𝘚𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘮 tonight, but I don't know if I can get on the hype train just yet. 🙈⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ ⚔ challenges⁣ ⁣ #booksofoct20 [good luck]⁣ ⁣ #bookreadhappyhour [fear is the mind killer.]⁣ ⁣ #rfaboct20 [black & white]⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ #ChristinaLauren #SimonTeen #booknerdigans #booklover #vscobooks #readingismagic #yalovin #bookishpost #readingcommunity #bookwormsunite #bookishphotography #booksconnectus #loveofbooks #booksarelife📚
QTOD: Do you like retellings? What's your favorite QTOD: Do you like retellings? What's your favorite one?⁣ ⁣ I typically enjoy retellings, although I must admit I don't read them too often. It's not that I don't want to, it's just sometimes it seems like there are a limited number of them, if that makes sense.⁣ ⁣ And when I do read them, some barely count as retellings since I'm not familiar with the source material. Is it still a retelling if you don't know the original story the retelling is retelling? 😅⁣ ⁣ —⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ ⚔ challenges⁣ ⁣ #cozyascanbee [cozy sweater]⁣ ⁣ #creativebookstagram [pirate]⁣ ⁣ #StarsInTheDark [cold as ice]⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ #LisaMaxwell #SimonTeen #bookreview #bibliophile #readersofig #yabookstagram #beautifulbooks #bookstagramit #readreadread #readergram #bookaesthetics #loveofreading #bookishgram
QTOD: What are some of your least favorite fiction QTOD: What are some of your least favorite fictional creatures?⁣ ⁣ Honestly, zombies are one of my least favorite. They just creep me out. The image under the cover flap of this book is something straight out of a nightmare. Which would explain why I still haven't mustered up the courage to read this despite owning it for the last few years. 😅⁣ ⁣ To be fair to zombies, I scare easily so it's really more of a me problem. I mean, I'm not the biggest fan of a bunch of other creatures that are typically associated with Halloween, either. It's not just zombies but really anything spooky and scary.⁣ ⁣ —⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ ⚔ challenges⁣ ⁣ #allthebooksoct20 [halloween reads]⁣ ⁣ #bookbookowlhocuspocus [apocalypse setting]⁣ ⁣ #fearyournovel [happy halloween]⁣ ⁣ #tumblesoverbooks [lila bard: full of sass]⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ #JonathanMaberry #SimonTeen #booksbooksbooks #bookish #alwaysreading #bookpost #yareads #booksaremagic #bibliophilelife #booksmakemehappy #mybookishfeatures #yabookstagrammer #readersunite #bookrelated
QTOD: What’s one of your favorite underrated boo QTOD: What’s one of your favorite underrated books/series?⁣ ⁣ #Graceling is one of mine! I don’t think I see too many posts about it here. Which is kind of sad because it’s honestly one of my favorites.⁣ ⁣ I’m always looking for underrated books to add to my (totally overflowing) tbr. Hyped books are always so hit or miss for me and I’m so tired of being disappointed. What’s sad is half the time, I probably would have liked the book/series more if I didn’t develop such high expectations based on all the hype around it.⁣ ⁣ How do you feel about hyped books? Love or avoid?⁣ ⁣ —⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ ⚔ challenges⁣ ⁣ #creativebookstagram [princess / prince]⁣ ⁣ #StarsInTheDark [brought me back to life]⁣ ⁣ #bookbookowlhocuspocus [pumpkin carving: dagger or blade on cover]⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ #KristinCashore #readingtime #booknerd #instareads #bookwormlife #booksofinsta #whatiread #readingtogether #bookreaders #bookdragons #cozyreads
QTOD: What kinds of covers do you like the least?⁣ ⁣ I'm not a big fan of people on covers, at least when they’re photographed. It doesn’t matter if it’s just a face or a whole body shot, I am not a fan of the typical stock model look. It’s covers like those that make me excited for cover changes. 😆⁣ ⁣ Normally I HATE it when books are repackaged but sometimes I’m excited for them (assuming I don’t already own the old version). Take these #PoisonPrincess covers for example. One of them is just so much more appealing to me, just saying. 💁🏻‍♀️⁣ ⁣ Do you like cover changes?⁣ ⁣ —⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ ⚔ challenges⁣ ⁣ #ampersandoct20 [werewolf: cover changes]⁣ ⁣ #cozyascanbee [villains]⁣ ⁣ #bookreadhappyhour [the horror! the horror!]⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ #KresleyCole #TheArcanaChronicles #SimonTeen #bookcommunity #bookaddict #bookoftheday #readersgonnaread #yafantasy #readingcommunity #bookaddiction #readingforpleasure #bookishcommunity #bookstagrammademedoit #booksconnectus #bookishsupport
QTOD: What's a character would you dress up as for QTOD: What's a character would you dress up as for Halloween?⁣ ⁣ I think it'd be fun to dress up as Jude for a night. Her hair horns are kind of cute, even though they’re quite difficult to achieve in real life. Trust me, I tried for a while before I gave up and resorted to using Photoshop magic.⁣ ⁣ But maybe I'll wait until the books are adapted into movies or a tv show so I won't have to deal with as many "and who are you supposed to be?" questions. 😅⁣ ⁣ —⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ ⚔ challenges⁣ ⁣ #allthebooksoct20 [character I'd dress up as]⁣ ⁣ #fearyournovel [happy halloween]⁣ ⁣ #bookreadhappyhour [body parts on the cover]⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ #TheCruelPrince #HollyBlack #FolkOfTheAir #JudeDuarte #bookcommunity #currentlyreading #bookdragon #allthebooks #beautifulbooks #yafantasy #readeveryday #readergram #readersunite #booksmakemehappy #yabookstagrammer #coverlove #bookishedit
