Welcome to the Book Blogger Hop!
This Week's Prompt:
What’s your biggest pet peeve about the book community?
My Answer:
I have a pet peeve about readers who intentionally crack the spines of paperbacks. While I understand that it can sometimes happen due to the quality of the book, I don’t see why some readers would pull the front cover and pages back, causing damage to the spine.

I had someone I loaned books to, and they came back that way. It was so frustrating.
ReplyDeleteI don't loan books out anymore. I did let my late grandmother borrow books, but they always returned them. Though one grandmother would write either my name or initials inside the book, I don't like writing in books either.
DeleteOh yes, this makes me cringe! Like it hurts my heart seeing that happen, like actual chest pains!

Have a GREAT day!
Old Follower :)
Exactly!
DeleteIf I have a hard time reading the words on the page, I sometimes I have to bend the spine back to read them. Sometimes it breaks.
ReplyDeleteI can understand having that problem.
DeleteI have to admit, that one makes me cringe a little too! Accidental spine creases happen, but I could never intentionally crack a book’s spine. Happy Reading!
ReplyDeleteI also feel the same way about dog ears.
DeleteOh that is definitely a peeve of mine. That and dog-earring. (is that a correct way to say that?)
ReplyDeleteI should've mentioned dog ears in my answer.
DeleteThanks for stopping by my blog Me, Myself, I Read (and write). I'm excited to have discovered this bloghop. I'm going to add it to my Friday Fun post, along with Book Beginnings, First Line Friday and the Friday56 starting next week.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by!
DeleteAll my spines are pristine 😂 I don't like a book to look read 😂
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
