Book Blogger Hop: Bookish Habits & Quirks

Welcome to the Book Blogger Hop!

This Week's Prompt:

Do you have any bookish habits or quirks you catch yourself doing again and again?
╍Submitted by Billy, Coffee-Addicted Writer.

My Answer:

I have a bad habit of buying books based solely on their covers, but I’m working on changing that. Now, whenever I see a book with a cover that catches my eye, I remind myself to read the blurb first. This strategy usually helps me decide not to buy the book, and I often end up putting it back on the shelf. As for bookish quirks, I can’t think of many, though I do have a strong dislike for finding dog-eared pages in used books. Is that considered a quirk?

  1. I can definitely relate to that—some covers are just impossible to resist! Reading the blurb first is such a smart habit, even if it takes a little willpower.
    I shared a few of my own reading quirks on my blog this week too.
    Happy Reading!

  2. The cover will always draw me in or out me off but I will always read the blurb before committing 😂

    Have a great weekend!

  3. I find covers very flirty as well ;)

  4. Not liking dog-earred pages is a norm in my book! Lol. I tend to have the bad habit of buying pretty covers as well but have gotten better about reading the blurbs as I usually do. Although, my other bad habit is buying the sequels before I read the first/current book!
