On Promoting Your Problematic Faves

Today, I really want to talk about problematic faves, because I've seen some things recently that have kind of wound me up.

It's to do with high profile/quite popular YA authors and their books, and how those who love their books seems to simply ignore their problematic behaviour/books. I've also seen a number of new releases with problematic content that have been raved about. It is very possible that maybe those readers are unaware of the problems with the authors and/or the books, especially in regards to new releases, but I don't think it's that's true in all cases when it comes to high profile authors.

Re-Reading When Older, Wiser, and More Educated

I'm pretty sure I'm not speaking just for myself when I say re-reads awe awesome. Diving back into books whose stories you adore, and whose characters feel like friends. I'd even go so far as to say it's probably needed sometimes. When we're not in the best of moods, or are going through a tough time, reading books you know you love can help you feel a little better. I refer to re-reads as comfort reads, because, while lost in their pages, I feel all comfy and happy, and not much thinking is required, because I already know where the story will go.
