#POLL: Book Merch: 👍 or 👎

This is going to horrify some people, I can sense it. But I need to be honest. I need to put my truth out there. I'm laughing so hard at my own joke right now. Unless you follow beauty guru drama, you probably have no clue what I even mean. but so it is here …

#POLL: Book Cover Models, YAY or NAY?

I'll admit it: covers end up playing a huge role in whether I decide to pick up a book or not. Sure, "don't judge a book by its cover" is completely valid. But when you're going through 10+ books a month, the little things (like cover design) do help narrow down what you want to …

#POLL: Read-a-Thons, YAY or NAY?

I'm here to read the book. Even if there were chapter titles, I wouldn't notice. [C] IT DEPENDS. Some books benefit from titles. Others …

#POLL: Series VS Standalone? (Books, of Course!)

Sometimes, the question really is that simple. *looks for a trap anyway When it comes to your reading preferences, do you gravitate towards novels that promise *at LEAST* a third before the author releases a finale that'll launch you into a thousand tears ... OR does the sight of "Book 1" on a spine send you running in …

#POLL: How Do YOU Choose What to Read Next?

I need to put this out there right now: Eeny Meeny Miny Moe is never a wrong answer.  We are bookworms. Book lovers. True afficianodos of the written (and spoken) word. And sometimes, we must pick which of our children to love first. Are you ... ready? (Who can ever be ready.) A) ARCs take precedence. They are advance …

#POLL: Would You Rather 7 Minutes of Free Shopping in a Bookstore or…

I think I took the longest pause from making polls and for that I'm sorry. The responses are so interesting to go through! They also remind me very quickly how different readers are, which is 1) why we need diverse books!!!! and 2) how we can never have too many books!!! For this poll, I'm …
