ReplyDeleteAny character cheating on a spouse
I have a blog dedicated to sports books and I hate the sales pitch that "even non-sports fans will enjoy this book."
I agree with 3-6 and 10, don't like those topics either!

I'm not a non-fiction fan either. Great list!
ReplyDeleteNon-fiction books are also a turnoff for me. ):
ReplyDeleteAs for music books, I agree with you, with the exception of one book: This Song Will Save Your Life by Leila Sales. You should try it too! :D
Awesome list!

I agree with all of these, I really forgot to add slut shaming on my list. I hate it and I always check reviews for sexism before adding a book to my shelf.
