Top Five Bookish Confessions

TTT is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish

It's confessions time! Though I've only got five this week. :D

1. I still read fanfiction

I love the books I read but some mornings, on a commute to the train, I just want some good old fanfiction. My current addictions are Ten x Rose, Tifa x Cloud and Serena x Nate. :)

2. Book-to-movie adaptations worry me

I'm one of those annoying people who point out during films "this is different from the book" or "the book is so much better." I think with a few minor exceptions, most movies fail to live up to the excellence of the books, which makes me very reluctant to watch those movies and makes me very determined to read the books prior to the films.

3. I want to vlog but lack confidence

Raving about books to people via vlogs is something I've been considering for a long time. But given my lack of confidence and my constant worry about people in my life finding out my hobby, I don't think I will vlog. :(

4. My YA-spree

I feel like now that I've started blogging, I've read a lot more YA books than I usually would and they consist of a large proportion of my reading. Not that I'm complaining! I love the majority of the books I've read this year and without the book blogging community, I never would have stumbled across them. But there is a small part of me who wishes I delve into genres I don't usually read.

5. I'm obsessed with my Netgalley ratio

Maybe it's my work habits wading into my hobby but I endeavour to get to all the ARCs I request. I get incredibly stressed out when a book gets close to its archive date - to the point where reading is not enjoyable for me anymore. And I usually crash out after the deadline and not read something else for quite a long time. Reading should be fun, not work. :(
