Prompt: Book peeves. They're like pet peeves, but they're book related. What are yours?
My Book Peeves:
1. When sequels aren't as good as the first one. (*cough*Inkheart*cough*)
2. When I know a classic is good but it takes forever to actually get exciting.
3. When it gets harder and harder to find joy in the books I used to love.
4. When people make rotten movie renditions of my favorite books.
5. When libraries see fit to put stickers on the good parts of a cover.
6. When libraries get a really good book and then never get the sequels. Not okay.
7. Waiting lists and overdue fines. The bane of my existence.
8. Not being able to find a book you want and when you do, it's the movie version.
9. Annoying hardbacks. I love hardbacks for looking and admiring but they are a pain to try to read. Never a good position.
10. Not knowing which books go in what order in a series. I hate when they don't have it clearly laid out.
11. When the "praise for Eragon" (example) is on the back of "Eldest". I want to know what Eldest is about! Frustrating!
12. Abridged books.
