What are some of your biggest pet peeeves with books?
1. Constant Drug Use: Alot of what I read is YA. So having the teen doing every drug under the sun is not ok. It makes me want to DNF them. I know they do drugs and they experiment, but EVERY SINGLE PAGE IS NOT NECESSARY.
2. Insta-love: I don’t mind insta-lust at all. But don’t start saying that he’s the reason you wake up in the morning on page 18 when you just met him on page 11.
3. When a synopsis tells the entire story: This has only happened a few times with me, but it’s still enough for me to add it. Like why do I need to read the book now?
4. Predictable plot: I HATE this. Especially with thrillers. I don’t like spoilers and being able to guess what happens is kinda like me spoiling myself I guess lol Keep me guessing and give me twists and turns!
5. Cardboard characters or a boring setting: I am a character and setting driven reader. The books I read either have to have amazing world-building or strong main character to keep me interested. Anything else can have me more than a little bored.

I HATE when a synopsis spoils the story!! So disappointing!

YES! Insta-love is an immediate turn off and a synopsis that spells out the story makes it predictable and often disappointing :L recently I had read one which explains the first half of the book and I was very close to DNF'ing it
Enchanted by YA
Ooohhhh what was it may I ask? Asking because it just recently happened with me too!
Thanks for stopping by!
