Favorite and Least Favorite Posts {Discuss #11}

By Littlebookstar @LittleBookStar

I know other bloggers have their favorite and least favorite type of posts, so in this discussion, I will share you my favorites and least favorites type of posts in order with an explanation of why I like/don’t like them. Remember, these are just my opinions and there are no right or wrong answer!

FAVORITES

1. Discussion posts

  • there are lots of topics to write about so it’s easy to write them
  • very interesting to read
  • easy for others to jump into the conversation & interact

2. TBR (to-be-read) posts

  • I’m always interested to see what others are reading
  • a post I enjoy doing, plus it’s easy to compose one
  • see if you and that blogger are reading the same books for that month/week. If so, both of you can even (maybe) read together

3. Book hauls

  • I love seeing what others got!
  • I can see if we have the same taste in books
  • I just get really excited for the people who received books

4. Reviews

  • I’m very interested in reading others’ thoughts on a certain book
  • I like them because it’s easy for me to see if that book is a yay or nay

5. Wrap up posts (Weekly & Monthly)

  • I don’t do wrap ups but I do enjoy reading them
  • I like reading about the blogger’s progress during that week/month.
  • I love it when the post also includes other posts that happened in the blogosphere

LEAST FAVORITES

1. Book blitz

  • I’m just not interested in them
  • Sometimes I feel like they are filler posts  (“oh I don’t have anything to post so I’ll just do that”)
  • I want to read a book blitz post b/c you (the blogger who posted that blitz) is interested in that book, not because you have nothing to post

2. Excerpt posts

  • I skip those 98% of the time
  • I don’t even read them except if it’s a book I’m dying to read

3. Memes (except STS)

  • Again, just not interested
  • I feel like sometimes they are just filler posts, too
  • Sorry, but sometimes they just bore me
  • It turns me off when blogs post memes four times in a row

4. Cover reveals

  • Sometimes I do enjoy those posts, but most of the time no
  • It’s difficult to interact especially when the book cover is ‘meh’
