Top 10 Tuesday is hosted at The Broke and the Bookish. Today’s topic is the Top Ten Words/Topics That Will Make Me NOT Pick Up a Book.
Guns
I know little to nothing about guns and if guns are in a book then there will probably be violence and blood which I just don’t like.

Love Triangles
How common are love triangles actually? I mean, really? Although some love triangles are interesting (ie. Will, Tessa, and Jem from the Infernal Devices series), many just have a lot of whiny angst and get annoying.

Abuse

Manga
I still can’t figure out how to read these. I am sure some are interesting, but reading them gives me a headache.

Video Games
I didn’t grow up with video games (my parents thought they were a waste of time) and, honestly, I would rather read a book or hang out outside instead of playing video games. If video games are regularly referred to in books I can guarantee I will get confused simply because I don’t understand them at all.
