QTOD: How do you feel about spoilers? For someone

QTOD: How do you feel about spoilers?

For someone who will occasionally read the ending of a book first, I REALLY hate spoilers. Especially big, meaningful ones. They just ruin EVERYTHING. 😡

Okay, maybe I don't really mind minor spoilers (and sometimes even need them, tbh), but I cannot stand people giving out major spoilers.

Like, how can I get emotionally invested in a character knowing what's going to happen to them in the future? It's the biggest reason why I haven't finished reading the Divergent trilogy even though it's been nearly 10 years since I've read the first book.

How do you handle someone spoiling a book for you?

QTOD: How do you keep track of series in progress?

Happy book birthday to #WhenNightBreaks by #JanellaAngeles! I feel like I've been waiting ages for this one to come out and I can't wait to read it.

I enjoyed reading WHERE DREAMS DESCEND last year (was it last year?) and I have so many questions I need to be answered.

—

On a side note, can we take a minute to appreciate the gorgeous cover?

To be entirely honest, if it wasn't for the stunning cover, which I just KNEW I had to try to recreate, I might have forgotten this sequel was coming out. I'm not usually on top of when sequels are releasing. 🙈

QTOD: What are you planning on reading this month?⁣
⁣
Like usual, I have no idea. I am hoping to read #BeastsOfPrey by #AyanaGray since I was supposed to read it last month, but we'll see how that goes.⁣
⁣
I was fortunate enough to be approved to read it on NetGalley but unfortunately life got in the way. 😔 I'll leave the synopsis in the comments, if you're interested.⁣
⁣
I'm still really excited to read it though. I just need to figure out how to fit reading back into my schedule.⁣
⁣
How do you find time to read when you get busy?⁣

QTOD: Are you usually ahead, on, or behind the tre

QTOD: Are you usually ahead, on, or behind the trend when it comes to reading books?

These days, I'm usually behind the trend. And then I procrastinate getting on it even more because I have a bad track record with reading hyped books.

It's interesting because back when I was in middle school, I was sort of before the trend. Like, I read all the big dystopians of the 2008-2012 era (think: The Hunger Games, Divergent, Delirium, etc) before they (and tbh, the genre) really blew up. And I wasn't even part of the bookish community at that time.

Which makes my current state a little confusing. It's funny that I stopped being ahead of / on trend once I started book blogging in 2012. You'd think the opposite would happen. 😅

How do you feel about reading hyped books?

QTOD: Do you reread books before reading their seq

QTOD: Do you reread books before reading their sequel(s)?

I do! I have the WORST memory when it comes to (most) books. Even some of my favorite ones exist as some kind of blur in my head.

Take #TheGildedWolves, for example. Now that The Bronzed Beasts aka the last book is out, I'm preparing to reread the first two books. Because as much as I loved them, I really don't remember what went down beyond the ending of The Silvered Serpents (that cliffhanger was so so mean!).

Yeah, I have the memory of a goldfish when it comes to reading. It's really bad - I completely forgot the name of the MC of one of the books I read a few weeks ago so I guess I shouldn't be surprised that I can't really remember the finer details of books I read last year.

I guess that's why it's been a while since I've read a longer series as it's being published - there's too much rereading involved. 😅

Do you prefer to read series as they're being published or would you rather binge read them?

QTOD: What's your favorite book-length?

I love the typical mid-size book. Maybe 300-400 pages? (I'm not sure, I don't usually pay attention to page count). But anything smaller than that seems a little short and anything over that scares me.

Not going to lie, I'm seriously intimidated by big books. I like them, don't get me wrong. But I'm so afraid of them. Especially the books that are already taller than others, like The Last Magician, for example. Couple that with a high page count and you can bet I'll procrastinate with reading it.

Are you ever intimidated by big books?

QTOD: What's your favorite page to screen adaptation?

Mine is probably the first #ToAllTheBoys movie. It's just so sweet and cute!

That said, I haven't watched the other last one yet. In my defense, it's kind of hard to watch when you don't have Netflix and can't watch it with friends. 😅

Do you enjoy watching book to whatever adaptations?

I meant to post this edit closer to when TATB3 came out earlier this year but I forgot.
