QOTD: What’s your favorite reading format?⁣ ⁣ I ge QOTD: What’s your favorite reading format?⁣ ⁣ I generally prefer the digital formats for their convivence, but it’s hard to beat the feeling of physically turning the pages of a book.⁣ ⁣ And mass market paperbacks are such a nice coinvent size.⁣ ⁣ What are you hoping to finish before the end of the month?⁣ ⁣ —⁣ ⁣ [Image description: Mass market paperback copy of the fantasy novel, The Rogue King by Abigail Owen.]⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ ⚔ challenges⁣ ⁣ #CourtOfReadingApr26 [king in the title]⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ #booklover #bookishlove #bookishpost #bookwormlife
QOTD: Do you reread books before reading their seq QOTD: Do you reread books before reading their sequels?⁣ ⁣ I usually do since I have a terrible memory but decided to skip rereading Shield of Sparrows and dove right into Rites of the Starling.⁣ ⁣ And was immediately confused.⁣ ⁣ Maybe I should have at least looked up some recaps first because I totally forgot what happened in the first book. 😅⁣ ⁣ I just don’t have time to reread right now and I don’t want to wait to read Rites of the Starling since I’m already starting to see spoilers. Which often negatively impact my reading experience. ⁣ Do spoilers affect your enjoyment of books?⁣ ⁣ —⁣ ⁣ [Video description: flipping back and forth between a book and its sequel, both by Devney Perry.]⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ #ShieldOfSparrows #bookphotography #booksofinsta #romantasy #readerproblems

QOTD: How do you feel about spin offs?⁣ ⁣ I heard QOTD: How do you feel about spin offs?⁣ ⁣ I heard Divergent is getting a spin off (or books set in an alternate universe?) and I’m kind of interested to see where it goes.⁣ ⁣ The first book is one of my favorite dystopians, but I still haven’t read the rest of the series, despite owning all the books.⁣ ⁣ Maybe it’s finally time to read them and get them off my physical tbr. 🤔⁣ ⁣ Are you good with finishing series?⁣ ⁣ —⁣ ⁣ [Image description: The YA dystopian book series, Divergent by Veronica Roth.]⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ ⚔ challenges⁣ ⁣ #AllTheBooksApr26 [series you haven't read yet]⁣ ⁣ .⁣ ⁣ #bookblog #bookhoarder #yafiction #yaauthors
