(Okay to start off my grammar and spelling here is going to be atrocious seeing as im on mobile and I really couldn’t care less I just don’t want yall hating on me for it)

Okay so of your not aware (which it seems MANY people aren’t) the reason there are different types of books and genres is because… 🎉people can have different tastes and preferences🎉 (shocker I know.)

It seems many readers don’t fully understand this concept and personally I don’t see whats so hard to understand.. you don’t like a book..? Okay why waste your time bashing other people and looking down your nose at them? Why not just move on? And honestly this doesnt just apply to books movies, hobbies, and really any sort of mildly diverse interest seems to have these kinds of situations For an example I personally am a younger teenager I enjoy books that not exactly considered peak literature (YA, romance, etc) and im getting really tired of the hate And dont think your safe YA readers its less of a problem but some people think if you read “classics” your just stuck up Fiction is usually supposed to be fun, creative, maybe inspiring why do we have to hate on what brings other people joy?

Problematic books that romanticize toxicity are a whole different story and I understand criticizing THAT but the amount of hate of perfectly unproblamatic books is crazy

I really don't care what people read, and I don't care what people think about what I read.It's like anything in life. People have different tastes.
