“All of these are very small annoyances. They don’t keep me up at night.” 😂
Well, at least not yet 😆
This is a fun video, and I'm impressed by how difficult it is to annoy you. 🤣 "On accident" made me laugh out loud - it is an American thing, and it annoys me, too. Since I'm American, I have to listen to people say it in conversation, as well as read it in books. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you! I'm glad I'm not the only person it annoys, although I'm very sorry you have to put up with it in person.
I totally agree about the spoilers. For me, it's also because I mainly read in English, which is not my first language. With some books, it's actually better for me to know what happens beforehand, so I can focus more on the details.
Yeah, I can imagine that being very helpful.
Great answers. You seem very laid back and don't get over annoyed at little bookish peeves.
Thanks, Jim! I try my best 😋
i'm with you on spoilers sometimes helping me enjoy a book more! i can get overwhelmed by "riveting" plots to the point where i'm not really interacting with the writing anymore
I've bought books because of the deckle edges 🤩
They're so lovely! 😊
Oh Aaron! This was great. Thanks for doing my tag! So relieved to hear a Brit say they loved deckled edges. 💛
Thank you, Kelly! I think this has been my favourite tag so far this year. I feel like I'm a deckled edges ambassador to the UK now 😄
@@aaronfacer You are! You should get a badge or something. :)
Delightful responses, Aaron! I loved your approach to the tag.😊
Thank you, Pat! 🙂
Great answers, Aaron. Totally agree about hardback and paperback releases. Your example of books in a series being different bugs me too. 😊💙
Thank you, Jolene! I wonder what it would take to change publishers' minds about hardcover vs paperback releases...
"On accident" and "I COULD care less" annoy me too.
Oh yes, that one too! 😾
I agree about hardbacks. I wish every book was released as a trade paperback first.
Yeah, I'm sure a paperback's more accessible price point would work wonders for a book's sales in the initial weeks of publication.
Great answers. I think you are quite a difficult man to annoy. You always seem so calm 😊. I was far more ranting in mine 😂. I agree very much on the hardback/paperback publication dates. I find that infuriating.
Thanks, Debs! I think sometimes I start getting annoyed at something, and then I just end up annoyed with myself for getting annoyed in the first place 😆
Hey thanks for the tag- I love how mostly you aren’t annoyed- I saw your thumbnail and thought - he’s so gracious and easy going I don’t know what he will say - ha! I too love deckled edges! And I do love books with others notes- on yes except library ones good point!
You're very welcome, Kristin! Yeah, I don't think I could get super annoyed about anything, especially books 😋
@@aaronfacer truth 🤣
Interesting tag - I agree with a lot of your answers. Yes, I wish new releases were always available in paperback. For example (as is true for me recently), if I'm collecting a series in a trilogy I enjoy, and I have books 1 and 2 in paperback. Then the final book is released, and I have no choice but to get a hardback edition which is more expensive and doesn't match the set (and I don't have the patience to wait another 6-12 months for the paperback!)
Yes, it's really annoying isn't it. I wonder if book sales would go up in the first few weeks of publication if they were initially released as paperbacks....
My tongue will tell the anger of my heart, or else my heart concealing it will break. Shakespeare.
I need to get back to Taming of the Shrew one of these days. I'm sure I read it at uni, but I can't remember it at all!
Your bookshelves tell me you are a true book person. An extremely rare creature. You read. You know how to curate your books, and you are not a snob who only judges by the cover.
Delightful!
Thank you, that's very kind of you to say. I try my best not to be a snob - I'm not sure if I always succeed! 😋
"a little insensitive"? It's barbaric to write in a library book!
Guess I know what tag I'll be doing next.
Haha, I supose my words were rather tame on that subject!
Wow, as an American, I have NEVER heard or read the phrase "on accident." Maybe the books you found it in were all published or edited by the same people?
Ooh, interesting. The plot thickens! I wouldn't be surprised if there was some common factor between all of those books.
