BOOKISH PET PEEVES

[@natlikesthings]

I absolutely hate when they don't number books in a series! The amount of times I've had to google the order of a series is just sad.

[@lnopgdniii3449]

Nat F i'm about to comment this! finally! i thought its just me. 😂 this is sooo me, after I bought throne of glass series! 😂

[@harasnicole]

Good god, YES. Like, it's not that difficult to add a number to the spine indicating where in the series it falls.

[@minkinface]

Nat F Right? My Goodreads is always open whenever I'm in a bookstore. I don't google books because I might come across a spoiler, though.

[@tibakhalid2827]

I totally understand. Best friend? Goodreads.

[@AksharaMaurya]

Yes exactly, I always have to check out Goodreads because it numbers books and is the most reliable, as it also gives a summary since all new books only have praises and PDFs or audiobooks don't really say anything

[@spaghettio5042]

1# Bookish Pet Peeve: When I buy a book or get it from the library, then later realize that it's book number 2 or 3.

[@thecroissantlassie6321]

THE PAIN

[@lindsaybuckles1543]

I just did that. I got Cress instead of Cinder.

[@whimsicalhufflepuff6775]

Or when the library only has book #1 of a series and you have to inter library loan the rest...then when you do that the 4th book comes before the 2nd and 3rd (I'm still waiting on the 3rd book a week and a half later....hoping I get the call in the next few hours because if it comes in tomorrow I won't be able to get it until Monday....and I'm almost done with book #2)

[@Shelby-og8ve]

Mina Sieradski I was your 100th like

[@harasnicole]

I did this with The Awakening of Sunshine Girl. I didn't know it was the second book until I went on Goodreads to add it to my shelf. I also did this with The Land of Stories: An Author's Odyssey, but that was on purpose.

[@habibamalik7396]

bookish pet peeve: when the size of 2 books in the same series is different. LIKE NO THANK YOU, I'D RATHER HAVE THE SAME SIZE!! Also, I absolutely HATE it when a book gets a cover change mid series.

[@SnorriSnibble]

Habiba Malik Same!! I bought Frozen Tides and Crystal Storm together on amazon, both from the same publisher and both paperbacks, but Crystal Storm is SO MUCH bigger, like what the hell Razorbill? You ever heard of consistency? And I especially hate it, when the writing on the spine of a series isn't the same size or in the same position. So when you have them together on your shelf, the spine of one book just pops out because it's wrong. I mean, didn't they have the old measurements??

[@christelle6759]

Habiba Malik How about when the very last book in the series has a cover change?😂😂 It happened to me with Artemis Fowl and is honestly something I will forever be upset about😂

[@lnopgdniii3449]

shhh. hush! sabaa tahir might hear you! 😂 (midseries cover changes, ugh no thanks!)

[@Cirrown]

yes... idk how that's possible but blood of olympus (4th book of series) is slightly smaller than books 1, 2, 3 and 5 and i just cant look at these books standing next to each other

[@yinglitang4734]

RED QUEEN.

[@andreaelzo5082]

#1 when the book is so thick the spine bends and it looks cracked 2# different height of books 3# when the font is way to small so you get a massive headache (yes im talking to you game of thrones) 4# colored text....like in shiver

[@andreaelzo5082]

Rebecca L im on clash of kings and it's really hard to read, it literally takes forever, maybe its the writting or the complex plot, but it has never taken me so long to push through a book. 😔

[@anaya8053]

Andrea Elzo #1 Thooo

[@AksharaMaurya]

Andrea Elzo I think they had to split in two parts because a) they had gone on too long to be one book and b) the fans were going crazy for another one

[@naurahdeatrisyagitany8365]

Who published your GoT books? The Bantam version has bigger font than the Harper Voyager ones.

[@WhisperArtist]

Omg, number one... That's the reason I avoid buying paperbacks. Especially when they have a really pretty design on the spine

[@user-hi6tu4el5x]

#1 Pet Peeve: when I buy a a book, than later discover it is ripped😢

[@sylve2474]

Nightcore6Nation even worse is it's unpopular, so there are very few copies, and you must consciously buy a damaged copy as that is all that is there.

[@lisapoxon1785]

Or when you borrow out a book from the library and realise that some one damaged the book with say liquid or wrote in it or ripped it. it just bugs me, people need to know how to take care of books!!

[@momosquad23]

Nightcore6Nation I've done that. Made me so sad. Now I inspect every book before choosing my copy.

[@munchkinswickedreads763]

That's exactly what happened to me when I bought A Court of Mist and Fury, the pages were basically off the BINDING!

[@lisapoxon1785]

That's one of the worst. I ordered a package and it looked as if it was dropped in a puddle, thrown in a trash compactor and used as a chew toy for a dog. Then when I eventually opened it to get to the book, the book had water damage, it was ripped, the first chapter was missing and the back cover was ripped. Let's just say I sent it back.

[@israr9928]

My biggest pet peeve for books is a cover change in the middle of the series. 😡

[@lnopgdniii3449]

Israr shhhhh! Sabaa tahir might hear you! 😂

[@laurakish4707]

Israr I'm all for having diverse POC's on covers, BUT NO MID-SERIES COVER CHANGES!

[@emilykaplan6780]

They are doing this with the Ember in the Ashes series, and it killed me when I heard the news, because now my covers won't match. Not to mention that the originals were so pretty

[@TKDDLJ09]

Israr they are changing the covers? What? No... I spent extra money on the hardcover. Fuck no, what is wrong with these people. Don't the authors think it's annoying themselves?

[@TKDDLJ09]

Israr ahhh. That is not okay.. are they changing the size too? Or is that still the same?

[@isabellalaylaa]

My bookish pet peeve: when there is a sticker on a book and you take it off and either it makes a mark or ruins the cover of the book

[@agent6935]

that happened to me with a house of night book, i was so pissed off that day...

[@tibakhalid2827]

Omg omg yes! The stickers torture me! There are so many types of good stickers that are easily peelable and you choose the ones that are half out and half still stuck! Stop ruining my gorgeous books!

[@moonlitraven1441]

Please. Can we start a petition to end the ruining of books with those stickers? Like, I ruined the cover of my brand new Dan Brown book trying to take it off since some of the residue decided to stick around. >:(

[@asobimo5532]

Or when you out it in your bag becuase you read it in a bus, and go with your girl friends to the mall (I mainly go because there is a beautiful book store there 😍) and when they want to go to stores for clothes, AND when you go inside then outside the alarm goes on. Bcs those alarms at the entrance if the store start bcs in the bar code sticker on te books there is usually some kind of metal so it happened to me and my mother more then once...😒

[@sophiabalough1062]

UGHH AGREED I LOVE THOSE STICKERS THAT JUST PEEL SO SATISFYINGLY

[@laurenyoung7707]

*#2 is soooo true!!* I am so used to looking on the back of the book for the description and I hate how now it's on the inside. *ugh.*

[@sylve2474]

Lauren Young even worse when they do it on paperbacks, because then they dont even have a description on the inside cover because there is no inside cover, and there's *no description!*

[@laurenyoung7707]

sylva lane I know! That's the worst :(

[@LadyFeline3]

And sometimes the blurbs aren't even for that book, but for other books by the author. Then you're flying *completely* blind.

[@Th3_m0st_forgettable_g1rl]

I got Rick Riordan's new book and it happened and it annoyed me but the book is good I'm not complaining about the actual book it's self

[@kkbooks6819]

@@LadyFeline3 true

[@nikkimirhosseyni9535]

STICKERS STICKERS STICKERS STICKERS. And I agree about the matte covers and smudges. And blurbs on the back. And blank pages. Lol.

[@afafnj]

I hate when i'm flipping a page and it feel in my hand like two pages that's confusing to me hhhhh😅😂

[@shaunaXX]

#1:When books are different heights. #2:then the plastic wrap covery thing peels off. #3:TINY FONT (killer on the eyes).....Okay im done

[@aromanianbibliophile]

Shauna XX #2 definitely!!

[@PunkHime89]

Shauna XX number 2..... I forgot about that one.....

[@justanothermundanefool2612]

Shauna XX or when you buy a book from the store and there's a sticker place over the cover and you want to peel it off so you can see it fully, but when you do it doesn't come of all the way and you spend hours to get it all off so when you see it you don't feel like buying another copy without a sticker residue.

[@HannahCassieBooks]

I agree I just hate so much when on the back it's only other people thoughts on the book, back is for description period!

[@neverlandbooks7318]

One blank page is nothing compared to the "great" idea a publisher thought of last Christmas. There was a book, which they wanted to be a part of the Christmas sale, but the book wasn't ready yet, so what they did was they printed the first chapter in the book and left ALL the other pages blank and the idea was that you could buy the unfinished book and inside we (the employees) would make a giftcard and put it in a little plastic folder on the back of the front cover. Then when the full book came out you could come in and exchange the giftcard for the full book. That was ridiculous and a total waste of resources! They wanted to see how it went with that book and maybe use the method with other books aswell. My boss refused to put our copies on the shelves. Luckily we haven't seen anything like that since.

[@PunkHime89]

Blue Angel That is utterly ridiculous!!!

[@neverlandbooks7318]

Daniela Chavez i know right!!!

[@jemappellemerci]

What the heck. They could’ve just done the damn gift cards in an envelope.

[@KUR0M1NA]

Tf

[@athenarose5103]

AAA oh my gosh we share the blank page pet peeve!! In my copy of Lady Midnight there are just 7 blank pages after the book is done with nothing on them and it makes me SAD that they are there for NO REASON. I also don't like when the cover of a paperback doesn't completely cover the entire front (if that makes sense??) kinda like what they did to the revamped editions of the mortal instruments

[@K01-q3b]

Athena Rose yes even with the lunar chronicles they don't cover the whole book like??? that's the whole point of the cover!

[@firebow2810]

Athena Rose yes, my copy of Scarlet doesn't completely cover the book. Get your books from puffin, they cover the entire book

[@karas4009]

😂 My Always and Forever Lara Jean by Jenny Han has like 5 blank pages and i think its supposed to be the wedding planner add on in it. It has stickers and food recipes and theres supposed to be a wedding planner in it. Buttt....theres nothing. Lol

[@Mimi-xi1bm]

Funniest thing I've read all morning 😂

[@magnolia_ember1]

#1 Pet Peeve: When I have to literally go on a quest to FIND the book's title on the cover! It's either super tiny, and squished to the side, or the author's name takes up more space than the title itself! #2 Pet Peeve: Those jagged edges...WHY DO THEY EXIST?! I want to rub my hands down the smooth pages, not potentially stab myself with paper! #3 Pet Peeve: Those blank pages at the end that give you hope that there's more to the book, but NOPE! Just existing for the sake of taunting me! I have to flip through each one to just make sure that the author hasn't added a secret extra page!

[@Karlasaccount415]

When I see a blank page in a book I just draw and or take notes on those pages

[@samantha.kerr_]

Oh my gosh I understand all of these but I can definitely relate to the first one!!!! UGH I hate when my books are not in perfect condition😡. One of my bookish pet peeves is when the pages are not straight and they are purposely messy looking. WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT!!!

[@jaidaholley5374]

paperbacks in general just annoy me because i always end up bending them

[@mikurasnerdcorner]

I actually not to long learnt what a blurb is. :o I swear I got taught in school that it is the description on the back of the book. I have been lied to!!

[@bethanyfisher5048]

britishbookbuyer same here

[@nessat6143]

britishbookbuyer britishbookbuyer it can mean either; the way that you're thinking of (as in a short summary of a book) but also the way Jesse is using the word :)

[@mikurasnerdcorner]

Nellie S oh okay then. Why is there more than one definition for everything. Thank you for the clarification :)

[@naomigray575]

[@AnnisQuest]

what I really hate is, when books have more than one page with the title (and often cover). I have read books where they printed the same page 3 or 4 times.... why????

[@paige9735]

When you read a book and love it so much that you want to reread it and when you do it isn't as good as you remember

[@sylve2474]

When pages don't have page numbers, it drives me crazy!

[@sabrinahu5806]

My bookish pet peeve: when a book has like 15 blank pages at the end so I think that I'm not done with the book yet and then I have to say goodbye way too soon

[@savannah4439]

The blurb thing is the literal worst when it happens on paperbacks! Like, there is no inside flap! How the actual heck am I supposed to know what the book is about then?!

[@Elizabeth-jp3dv]

This one may or may not be controversial but dust jackets. I hate dust jackets. They get in the way, they rip, and without them books, most of the time look ugly. Why can't the hardbacks just have the cover printed right on to the book?. I know there are loads of down sides to that idea too, but yeah still they irritate me.

[@malaikarose2985]

Lizzy B i just get rid of them

[@michaelebert4249]

That's why I prefer paperbacks

[@CrystalMermaid6]

I tape the dust jacket to the book so it stops slipping off mid read or gets ripped when I put it in my bag

[@elohhhel]

i actually really love the dust jackets, i think it protects the book from time to time [when it gets all ruined] but i still see ur point

[@dnvvv891]

The Girls with a Thousand Laughs I only put the dust jacket on when I take the book with me so it’s like a jacket otherwise I take it off

[@Libib]

Biggest physical bookish pet peeve: not be able to remove the "now a motion picture" sticker that's printed on the cover! IT'S THE WORST!

[@user-gw2sl2hv6i]

1# bookish pet peeve: when the pages of a book is so freaking thin! It drives me insane, its so easily ripped! Some examples: Empire of Storms, Winter, Acowar etc... It drives me crazy

[@elsa-pt7gz]

One of my biggest bookish pet peeve is when the dust jacket of a book is just too big and is constantly falling and basically annoying the crap out of me

[@jazzyl5881]

When unnecessary stickers on books say removable but when I try to take it off my book cover gets messed up with white sticky paper

[@Athroneofbooks]

OMG I hate it when there are like 10 blank pages at the end of a book like whyyyy?

[@addie-eileenpaige6460]

My biggest pet peeve is when I let someone borrow my book and they dog ear the HELL out of it or just bring it back to me like the stuffed it in the bottom of the bag. Then , when I lend someone a book and they don't even bother cracking it open. I remember letting my friend borrow my book, and she said she never had to time to read it. There's ALWAYS time to read.

The thumbnail is so sassy I can't not love it😂

omg, the first one. "art that nobody wants to see" thank you Jesse, that was the best

A great example of foot notes done right: The Secret Series by Pseudonymous Bosch

[@em9366]

Maddy Martin yes! loved it

[@ScooppyLise]

Maddy Martin or Nevernight

[@TKDDLJ09]

Maddy Martin footnotes just makes me think I'm reading a research paper or something other in that line of work and I get bored instantly. :)

[@maddymartin2240]

Kira Jeppesen these footnotes are more like little notes from the author who is quite the character. It's more like if the book was annotated in bright colored marker but the publishers were like nah so he had to put us little quips at the bottom

[@TKDDLJ09]

Maddy Martin to me, that doesn't seem like fun. I would still feel like I'm reading something for University! But it does seem like a fun idea for people who like that. :)

[@AduialPeredhel]

The footnotes in Nevernight are my favorite part. They detail the history that doesn't fit with the story but add some depth to it. Also, the narrator gets really saucy in the footnotes.

[@panther_firez9744]

I've read a book that when a chapter ends you turn the page and the page on the left is blank. For EVERY chapter

[@felicial7246]

I can relate to ALL of these!!!!😂 You should do the video on pet peeves inside the book too. Love your videos Jesse!!!!💞

[@mafaldaviana9060]

Three bookish pet peeves of mine: 1. when, halfway through the series, the paper used for the cover changes and now I have three books with regular covers and two with slick, smooth covers 2. when the first few books of the series have been adapted into films and used the posters as covers but the latter ones in the series are still un-adapted and they're all the same goddamn edition so everything gets mixed up 3. when you start reading a series, it goes out of print in your native language and you have to read the rest in another language

[@MadiganinPeach]

When editions of books will come out with a bunch of blurbs on the cover 😣 it was so beautiful why are you putting a bunch of blurbs and stuff right over the cover image! 😭

[@its_just_seb]

I love blank pages in books! They still count for the page count and you don't have anything to do, you're just one page further with no wortk! It's like in board games when it lets you skip some of the fields. I love it. I also love when at the end of a chapter there's like only a few lines on the page and then it skips to the next for the next chapter. Free progress!

[@StarsAndEmbers]

I knew where you were going with that first one before you got there, and I so agree! Having finger prints all over books makes me so mad.

[@abbyschuster9669]

Truthfully when I look at books for the description I turn it to the back it would be nice if all books had the description on the back and not just paperbacks

[@luna-qy5fg]

The blank page part made me laugh so hard I agree with you about it so hard like all of these are my peeves also.

[@hsmith6530]

I hate it when they don't number series and I'm with you on the back. Every time I find a book like that, I'm forced to read the first few pages and if it's in a series, there can be serious spoilers.

[@Theeadia]

I used to hate those blank double sided pages that you see near the front or the end of books! You know those pages that I''m talking about? When I was little, I used to rip those pages out and I made my own little book with them so they wouldn't be wasted paper!
