11 1 19. Really good list of top 5 books btw
thank u :3
book youβve reread the most times?
another is crush by richard siken, which i have reread countless times in the way you might take apart a junker car and put it back together to see how it works
most disliked popular books?
you know what i HATE. is those books that men are always like. if you like scifi/fantasy you haaaaaave to read. shut up!!! you dont know what i have to read. and your james coreys and your grrms and your patrick rothfusses and whatever can all go suck each others dicks in a circle. oh my god it makes me sick
what non-fiction books do you like if any?
i am slowly learning to like nonfiction! i like figuring out how to replicate the research emotions for myself, so i really enjoy reading a bunch of nonfiction on one subject. but its time consuming and there are so many other books to read :/
15 (though i don't like the period on this one, feels so flat-mouthed and commanding. pls picture a more gentle coaxing punctuation mark) 9 20 2 for books pls!!!
i have answered all of these (have i just done all of them at this point ? no, no one asked the bookstore ones, which is pretty funny. i do not go there its true) but i shall take the gentle and coaxing command regardless π«‘
i recommend the tsar of love and techno by anthony marra! absolutely spellbinding twisty magical book that weaves together a series of short stories between siberia and chechnya, over the last decades of the USSR. the stories are good each on their own, but they build to a truly unforgettable emotional climax. marra's prose is readable and creative and specific to each narrator. i read this book probably a decade ago and i think about it all the time.
hii 1 and 20 for the books ask !!
answered both of these... another book ive reread basically constantly is harrow the ninth, altho im not on everett @justsomeguycore's level, who seems to be constantly listening to at least one tlt book. i respect that grind
and for 20 i really do like a good author blurb! if someone whose writing i love is plugging it, i will generally get interested, even tho i know its marketing etc. i want to believe there can be a kernel of truth...

2 and 6!! π
answered both of these but im home now so another top 5 looking at my bookshelf:
grendel by john gardner, the tsar of love and techno by anthony marra, lincoln in the bardo by george saunders, stargirl by jerry spinelli, and the book thief by markus zusak
7 8 17! πππ
is there a series/book that got you into reading?
my beloved warriors... i dont think its the first series that i really got into, but its the first series that i was actively discussing and obsessing with friends over, which imo is what really made me a Reader.
answered the other two and im simply tapped out on creative additional answers :'(

THE LOVE HYPOTHESIS (2026) dir. Claire Scanlon
Salman Toor (Pakistani, 1983) - Night Cemetery (2025)
If you want to engage with fandom as a community but are overwhelmed by the writing of it all, my advice is to start small. Write a one paragraph ficlet/drabble and post it to tumblr. Describe a setting, or a bit of character inner monologue, or write a snapshot of a bigger scene in your head. This might seem like it's just "posting headcanons to tumblr" but if you take the time to look at your sentence structure, edit your word choices, fix typos, and make adjustments to make the writing more compelling or the characters more vivid, that is literally creative writing. Next time, make it two paragraphs. Maybe add a few lines of dialogue. Take a scene from canon and extend it for 500 words. Try to engage with or expand upon an emotion that you noticed in canon. I bet someone else is compelled by this idea too. You don't have to write a 100k fic to engage with other people in fandom. Short form is a valid form of writing practice and will build your muscle. Even if one person likes it or replies to it with their own thoughts, you've reached someone.
6, 10, and 19 for the book asks!!
what books have you read in the last month?
last kings of hollywood by paul fischer, patchwork: a graphic biography of jane austen by kate evans (REALLY cool book i keep meaning to post about) and a guardian and a thief by megha majumdar.
do you have a guilty fav?
mmmm not really a concept i get into. obviously i have long since abandoned guilt (mostly) over my romance novel fixation. sometimes i like to read a couple pages of shitty self help books and be mean about them with my coworker lol
most disliked popular books?
taking another #controversial stand here. ive read the goldfinch AND the secret history and both left me completely cold. i liked the furniture restoration stuff in the goldfinch and boris and some of the epilogue, and i didnt like anything in the secret history, and i do not understand the obsession with them. but i am nice and i will not be rude about it.
1, 17, and 20 for the book asks!
book youβve reread the most times?
sprout by dale peck or the sky is everywhere by jandy nelson, probably! my two favorite books as a teenager and my copies of both are filled with bookmarks and well-worn. i used to be a big rereader but genuinely who has the time anymore!!!
top 5 childrenβs books?
answered but let me try for some juv fiction. the golden compass, how it all ends, hp+half blood prince (sorry), the eyes and the impossible and the warriors book where crowfeather and leafpool run away together. i dont read as much jfic as an adult so this is pretty paltry :/
what are things you look for in a book?
hard to say! i take a lot of reccs from friends and pick up a lot of things at work because they look interesting. it can really vary. i would say in general i like to be surprised and intrigued, and i like a good balance of different things book to book. ie, a romance novel then nonfiction then poetry then a graphic. but then sometimes i binge on one thing. i contain multitudes

9 & 13 & if i can stir this pot 19 ^_^
when do you tend to read most?
answered + currently am on my lunch break not reading rip
do you have a goodreads?
no, technically i have a storygraph but i haven't used it in like four years. i keep a list in my notes app and i blog and thats it
most disliked popular books?
ykw i was thinking about the other day. i never liked twilight and i know its had its whole renaissance and i still don't like it and dont find it compelling and i think its sort of annoying how all the political objections to the subject matter and author have kind of just washed away. there are so many better and more interesting versions of that story. taking my stand. i was right about twilight when i was 12 and im right now
