Ooh did a Book Riot quiz today~
(got this one from a recent JesseTheReader video)
I got:
I guess I could add some more that I think are my bookish red flags...
- I hate-read, because I rarely DNF books I've purchased (even if they are cheap/thrifted). To give the book 0.5-2 stars has been one of the few things that motivates me to finish a book. ✿ No worries, I don't really believe there are that many hidden gems out there so I don't feel like I'm missing out (positive pessimist here). I consider myself pretty picky with what I start to read so there's less regret regarding that.
- I used to dog-ear my books but now I seldom do it after "being scolded" by one of the characters in Diana Wynne Jones' "Fire and Hemlock"... (I don't remember the exact words and scene though)
- I... read in the bathroom. I finished many books through this method (even during reading slumps) so leave me be XD ✿ Good(?) news - some books I've soft-DNF-ed ended up here~
- I don't really consider this a red flag but most avid readers might consider so - I don't mind books with movie/TV drama covers :P ✿ I grew up watching/reading(?) some of Qiong Yao's TV dramas/books and let me tell you, some of her [first edition?] books have those covers [Examples in this blog: HZGG & HZGG2]. Totally not weirded out by them. I don't feel as much prejudice as the others towards them.
- Also, not sure if this is a red flag because it sounds more like an eccentric habit. Though I don't do it for all. I am friends with spoilers! That doesn't mean I'm okay with being spoiled all the time - I want it to be on my own terms. I sometimes read ahead, jump around to read spoilers...& flirt with spoilers XD
You are shy. You may be an introvert or an extrovert, but you worry about what others think of you. You want to go talk with people, but you are afraid to.























On an average day, you're quite happy, together, and content. You live your life well.
Your emotions aren't always stable, but you can go along with the ups and downs pretty well.
You tend to be motivated, energetic, focused, and level headed.
You see the world pretty rationally, and you don't tend to over dramatize things. When things are bad, you know they eventually have to get better.
