38: Bookish Pet Peeves

Show notes: We love authors and we love books. We really do! But… sometimes authors do very strange things in their books that just grind our gears. Why do they do them? We have no idea, but we sure want to talk about it and share our bookish pet peeves with you. What do you think, do we raise valid points or are we just picky readers? Maybe don’t answer that.    Click here to join us on Patreon to get an exclusive bookish goodie every single Friday.
