Every reader has habits they’re not sure they should admit…

Do you skip descriptions?
Read the ending first?
DNF constantly?
Buy books faster than you read them?

This is your chance to confess your bookish sins 😇📚

Kat (bookworm2017) | 2149 comments DNF majority of the time. I have a lot of books to read. And life’s too short. If for a challenge or short I’ll carry on. Always takes me longer though.

Erin *Proud Book Hoarder* (erinpaperbackstash) | 1536 comments Buy too many in all formats and they can sit there for years.

Also, I have this bizarre habit when reading paper books to keep putting the paper under my fingernails and messing with, no clue why, it even annoys me

I sometimes start too many at once and even if liking one, it may sit there in between read stages for too long

I have a rather embarrasing confession 😂

I'm the opposite of Kat and really struggle to DNF books. I'm a completionist and, for some reason, I just can't DNF. Well a few years ago, I was reading this book that I really didn't like and bc I refused to DNF it, I just literally didn't read for whole year because I also can't start new books until my current one is finished.

Eventually after a year (no, im not exaggerating), I finally gave up and "officially" DNF'ed it and started something new. 😅

Really? So it's not just a weird me thing. It started years ago and no clue why
