5 Things That Make Me Pick Up A Book and 5 That Will Hold Me Back

Welcome to another Top Ten Tuesday. This week is all on things that make me pick up a book. I put a twist and did 5 things that makes me pick up a book and 5 on things that I avoid 

- The Author

If I’ve read a book by the author before and liked it then I will happily buy more of that authors books.  

I’ve done it with Dorothy Koomson, Nicholas Sparks, Cecelia Ahern, Jodi Pilcoult, John Green, JK Rowling. 

- The Cover

I don’t tend to judge a book on its cover but sometimes I totally do. Ok like 80% of the time is all about a cover. It’s the first thing you see.  

- Genre

Curtain books in curtain genres I’ll happily pick up that book.  

- Price

I am someone who loves getting books at a lower price.  

HOLD ME BACK

- The Popularity 

It doesn’t necessarily mean I won’t get the book. It means it will be a while. 

- The Author

Even though in the first part I said about always getting more books by the same author over time I have realized that my reading style has changed a lot. 

- Genre 

I had a phase where I wanted to get into classic books and brought some and realized I’m not much of a fan of classics. 

- Ebook, Audible 

I am someone who really hates anything that isn’t an actual physical copy of a book. I like holding a book. I am such a visual reader that I need the actual book in front of me.
