Morning, friends!
Has this month moved slowly for you? I feel it has for me. I’ve been looking for new book tags. And I think I’ve found one at Howling Libraries. Destiny hasn’t tagged anyone in particular. But I loved her answers though and thought I’d give it a chance!
So show Destiny some love before you check out my post.
A Really Hyped Book You’re Not Interested in Reading
I’m sorry, Tahereh, but the eyes on your covers freak me out. And I still don’t get the appeal of this dystopian. So Juliette can’t be touched, right? Is she a weapon? Or is she a curse? I’m so confused right now.
A Series You Won’t Start/Won’t Be Finishing
Gena, oh Gena, you fracked up. Badly. So badly. I devoured this series, and I loved these boys. But I couldn’t help but scream when I found out she killed my OTP, a pairing that SHE HINTED AT FOR YEARS. I’ll read the books I have now, but I won’t finish this series.
A Classic You’re Not Interested In
I’ve never wanted to read Fitzgerald’s classic. Gatsby sounds pretentious and insufferable.
A Genre You Never Read
Erotica. I love, LOVE, reverse harem and paranormal romance. But when sex overrides plot, I drop the line. And frankly, reading that tampon scene in Fifty Shades of Grey was terrifying.
A Book on Your Shelves You’ll Probably Never Read
While I love the design of the cover, I’m not interested in picking up since the book itself reminds me of an internship rejection.
Tag Time
You all know the deal. Please don’t feel like you need to do this tag. I want you all to have fun. If you do, darlings, link back to my post! Love you!

SO MUCH YES to not reading erotica. I just need a little something more to my books. (Your comment about the tampon scene made me laugh out loud.)

God, I had forgotten about the tampon scene in Fifty Shades *shudder*. I picked up Shatter Me for about 5 minutes and then put it down – I really don’t think you’re missing much. The writing style is /bizarre/ and her use of metaphors and similes is exhausting.

I really didn’t enjoy Shatter Me and I totally agree about the gena showalter series!!

I enjoy reading erotica, but damn. That tampon scene was really bad 😩 (frankly, this whole book was bad, lol)
Thank you for tagging me, lovely 💙

I feel you on Great Gatsby. I’ve been kind of interested in it in the past but everything I know about it makes me think I’d hate it, and I kind of think if I haven’t read it at this point in my life I’m not going to. Glad I’m not the only one who hasn’t read it!

I am legit laughing so hard right now because SAME. I don’t get the covers at all and it doesn’t scream dystopian to me at all. It’s weird. I do own the book though and will eventually read it.

Finally, someone else feels the same. They’re so creepy!

I’m with you on Shatter Me, but the English teacher inside of me is a little broken over The Great Gatsby.

I think I was so traumatised by reading 50 shades, I’ve blocked it from me memory… I don’t recall a tampon scene?!! (Agree with the eyes… this is why I haven’t bought them!)
