Do I Like This Book?

Do you ever have trouble reading because you're focusing on something else while your eyes are scrolling down the page? If it happens often for you in one book, then it's probably too boring, or not a good book for you. You might just be reading it because your friends say it's a good book. You're trying to read it, but it's actually the worst thing ever. Or it's amazing and you're tired. But if you don't know, I'm here to tell you.

Macy's Guide to Good Books

Okay, anyway, here is a guide to good books for you, whether you're 7 or 87, you better be reading a book that's right for you.

So you might be reading a book because it's on some Scholastic Best Children's/Young Adults/Teens/Adults Books of 2011/12/13/14. First you're like "oh this is going to be good since a website that sponsors books likes it." So as you're reading, you're like, "wait what did I just read" and you go back down, because you're so tired of the book. If you find this happening a lot, then it's probably not the best book.

If every word of the book you're reading says something you don't understand, like pother, or captious, or tricorn [source] (which to me sounds like a unicorn with three horns), then you're probably not going to understand it, so yeah, it's not going to be good, because you have no idea what they're talking about.

If you're reading a book that's like then, Billy the armadillo went walking to the forest, and he saw a big, scary monster. Then, you're probably reading your baby nephew's storytime book, or you were bored and picked out some random book at the library and you were accidentally in the kid's section. So, obviously, nope. Stop reading it when you see on many pages, ant, bug, log or anything like that, it's probably going to be in the book jacket sleeve saying "Kid's 3-6".

These are very obvious, but sometimes you may do it.

Next! Fandom books. You read them because they're in fandoms. And that's not a bad thing. You read it because other people like it, and you got interested. Many people think that's somehow a bad thing, but it's not. Anyway, moving on. As you're reading the book, you think it's way too scary, or way too boring, or something. But you keep reading it, because it's a fandom book. You don't have to. Just because everyone else loves it, it doesn't mean you have to. Put it down, it's not the best doing so, but if after the end of the books, you're gonna be like "wow I wasted so much time reading these". So, go along and read a book that is interesting to you, and not anyone else. I mean if you are reading a book, because someone recommended it to you, that's fine, as long as you're interested.

Alright! That's it. I'm not sure if it's (too) long (enough), but my links are below! :)
