My Tiny Obsessions did The Reader Problems Book Tag and said anyone could consider themselves tagged, so….consider myself tagged!
1. YOU HAVE 20,000 BOOKS ON YOUR TBR. HOW IN THE WORLD DO YOU DECIDE WHAT TO READ NEXT?
It depends. I usually vacillate between fiction and non-fiction, and if I get stuck in one genre for too long, I usually switch to something else. HOWEVER, it doesn’t matter how long my TBR pile is, if a new book I’ve been waiting for comes out, that immediately takes precedence (even if I’m in the middle of another book).
2. YOU’RE HALFWAY THROUGH A BOOK AND YOU’RE JUST NOT LOVING IT. DO YOU QUIT OR ARE YOU COMMITTED?
I used to be really bad at just letting books go. It’s the perfectionist in me. So I had to actually make a conscious effort to talk myself through the decision: “Tricia, you don’t like this book. You can put it down. Read something you enjoy! No one is testing you on this!!” Anyway, I’ve gotten better at quitting, but it is still a mental struggle.
