The Bookish Naughty List Book Tag!

Hello!  It’s time for another holiday book tag!  I was tagged by Jenn @ Jenniely for the Bookish Naughty List book tag. 😁  So, let’s decide if I deserve to go on the the naughty list this year!

Received an ARC and not reviewed it  ✅

Hasn’t everyone done this? 🙈  Especially with things like NetGalley, it’s so easy to receive an ARC, and not get around to reviewing it.  I plan on finishing them all someday…I JUST NEED MORE TIME!

Have less than 60% feedback rating on NetGalley

My feedback rating is currently at 75%, which actually isn’t too bad, and better than I thought!

Rated a book on goodreads and promised a full review was to come on your blog (and never did) ✅

Bahahaha this is every book reviewer’s biggest lie. 😭 I have good intentions, guys! I really do!

Folded down the page of a book

I try to keep my books looking extra nice, so I don’t intentionally fold pages.

Accidentally spilled on a book ✅

Is this for this year? Or ever?  I’ve done fairly well this year at not spilling on my books.  Like I said, I try to be careful…that being said, I’ve had my fair share of splashes of tea on my books throughout the years.  And, one time I spilled a giant glob of applesauce on my favorite book when I was, like, 10.  It traumatized me. 😭

DNF a book this year

Not this year!

Bought a book purely because it was pretty with no intention of reading it ✅

Well, I’d like to say I intend on reading every book I get.  When I actually will get to it, however, is another thing. 🙈

Read whilst you were meant to be doing something else (like homework) ✅✅✅

All. The. Time!  I admit, I put off so many things to read.

Skim read a book ✅

I don’t do this too often, but if I’m not feeling the book, and I’m too close to the end to DNF it, I’ll skim it.  🙈

Completely missed your Goodreads goal

I think I’m going to reach my goal!  I’ve read 48 of 52 books, and I don’t think that’s too crazy for me to accomplish in 15 days.  I’m still holding out hope!

Borrowed a book and not returned it

Nope! 🙅‍♀️ It drives me crazy, when people don’t return my books, so I always make it a point to return borrowed books promptly.  Library books, though, I always return them…I don’t always return them quite as promptly. 🙈

Broke a book buying ban ✅

Shh…Don’t we all? .  🙈😜

Started a review, left it for ages then forgot what the book was about ✅

This one’s for you The Graveyard Book!  I remember the main premise, and that I enjoyed the book, but I don’t remember enough specific details to write a review for it anymore. I still have the review in my drafts, but unless I reread it, it’s never going to get a review. 😭

Wrote in a book you were reading

Unless you count the Bible, which I’m not, because that’s different, I don’t write in books.🙅‍♀️

Finished a book and not added it to your Goodreads

I haven’t done this either!  I gotta reach that Goodreads goal! 😅


So, out of 15 things, I’ve been naughty for 8 of them.  I guess that makes me on the bookish naughty list! 😭🙈😂


Are YOU on the bookish naughty list? I’d love to see your answers!
