Hello Everyone,
Today I thought that I would write about some of my Bookish/Reading Pet Peeves! These are just a few things that annoy me about reading and all the things that come with being a bookworm. If you have any suggestions for future posts please let me know (I'm in a reading/blogging slump)
1. Books that change covers halfway through a series - Don't you hate it when you start reading a series and halfway through the series you go to your bookstore and suddenly the cover is completely different to the books that you already own and your bookstore cannot get the cover that you desperately need. For me, this happened with the I Am Number Four series by Pittacus Lore. It completely irritates me but it's something that I just have to learn to deal with.
2. Stickers on book covers - Nobody wants a nasty residue mark on their brand new book. If the sticker peels off easily then it's fine but, if it pulls off a section of the laminated cover and leaves a mark that cannot be removed. This really bugs me!
3. Different sizes of books in a book series - When the series starts off with normal, average sized books and then the new book in the series is released and it is ten times bigger than the rest of your books.
4. Broken Spines - Nothing annoys me more than the white line running down the spine of a book. When I read a paperback book I treat it like it is a delicate flower so that when I finish reading it it is in perfect condition. Also, when the spine is so bent out of shape it it becomes a "u" shape instead of straight.
5. When bookstores have every book in the series you are reading except the one that you need. What are you going to do on your Saturday night now?!
Do you have any bookish pet peeves that I haven't mentioned here? Let me know in the comments! :)
