#tbf i guess i didn’t really read much ya when i was a kid ig

[giraffesonjupiter]

accidentally bought too many books and now I can’t decide what to read next

#also i’m back to having a full shelf of tbr’s which feels nice #only after boxing a bunch of other books including some unreads i’ve given up on for now though.... #thinking about buying another bookcase #also i gotta stop buying ya stuff (i was good about this this time) #i’ve liked most of the ya i’ve read in the past year but when i get done reading it and it’s time to put it on the shelf #i just have this feeling of.... dissatisfaction. almost regret. i know i’m never gonna revisit those ones #vs pretty much all of the adult stuff i’ve read i’m glad to have on the shelf #either bc i know i’ll want to reread or at the revisit the experience of having read it #like the ya i’ve read is good it’s just not..... stuff i feel the need to revisit after having read it once #tbf i guess i didn’t really read much ya when i was a kid ig #i read stuff like warriors & hp. read twilight too bc i was... 14? at the height of the twilight book craze #but i was also reading asoiaf & wheel of time & stuff by the time i was 13/14 #so i guess ya just.... isn’t really for me too much #which is a damn shame bc there’s so many interesting premises in ya!! it’s just when i read them #i find myself wishing for what they could’ve been if they’d been written for an adult audience instead #oh also happy endings.... i’ve had good luck so far with the adult books i’ve read but sometimes they can be a bit too bittersweet for me #gonna keep trying but i have to keep reminding myself to get ya books from the library rather than buying them #anyway. w/e #goj personal #goj tag talks #books
