Every time I think about how the Colleen Hoover fangirlies get mad when people even suggest that they should try and diversify their portfolios I get really, really sad. Like I don't think you have to read classics or anything and be an elite snob but if you limit yourself to just Colleen Hoover and maybe Sarah J Maas and a few other popular booktok authors, you're missing out on so so much. Even if you just want to find good new releases, keeping up with the book of the month club will give you plenty of options (even if you can't subscribe to them and have to get them from the library). Diversify your portfolio. Read older mass market paperback romances or literally anything else.

#shay speaks #anti colleen hoover #anti coho #do i put this in the coho tags too............#do i want more drama from that anon who clearly doesnt have any reading comprehension #anyway for any of u coho stannies stalking the anti coho tags.#i'm not saying this to be elitist #literally one of my favorite books from last year is a mass market paperback romance novel from 2008 #the classics are like any other genre of books. you'll love some and hate others #and maybe actually try reading pride and prejudice without swapping out the names for your blorbos #and sitting with the themes of it. maybe you wont like it! maybe you will! only way to find out is to actually read it #even reading books you end up not liking can help you figure out your taste better #and you can think about what works for you and what doesnt from them #but please branch out.#anyway i'm done. i'm having another moment i just feel really bad for people who never bother to try things that #werent released in the last 5 years. go find some stuff on thrift books for cheap #probably my favorite way to find books
