Bookish Pet Peeves

I feel like I have been staring at this blank screen forever, trying to decide what the write about this week. My creative brain feels broken right now. So I sit and stare and struggle to think think think, all the while half listening to an audiobook. So far in this story a woman has fainted multiple times after receiving bad news and two characters have vomited. And there it is. My inspiration. Do people really throw up this frequently as a reaction to terrible news? I have had my fair share of terrible news and it has never lead me to seek the nearest bathroom and arrive there in the nick of time. Why does this happen so much in books?!?! Whyyyyy? Drives me crazy.

Other bookish pet peeves:

  • Dream sequences
  • Weird character names
  • Love triangles
  • Mid-series cover changes

But let’s not end on a negative note. Here are a few of my bookish loves:

  • Books within books
  • Unreliable narrators
  • Mind-blowing twists
  • Unapologetically smart and strong heroines

Enjoy this sassy baby goat while you think about your own bookish pet peeves.
