Have you ever had a physical book or book series that was great but you have some general complaints, not about the story itself, but the physical copy? Perhaps it's something many books or series share in common that irk you to no end.
For myself, there are quite a few
- Lacking a synopsis or replacing it with reviews that tell me nothing.
- Art not fitting the genre(looking at you, Icebreaker with your teen vogue art type for a smut book).
- Book series lacking volume numbers(I can't stand this more than anything as the amount of times I wanted to start a series that I got, only to find out it is the 2nd or 3rd book in the series because there is no indicator).
- Spoiler filled art pieces at the beginning of a book rather than with the scene or at the end.
- Text message screenshots(I will probably stop reading from the cringe)
- Not being Matte texture(this is entirely personal and does not effect the quality of the read but does make it uncomfortable for me to read for longer periods).
- "Now an award winning motion picture" sticker and/or movie cover art.
Please feel free to add any of your personal complaints or problems with physical books but please keep it civil. I would love to know about them.
