LCPL wrote: "QOTD: Where would you love to visit during Autumn?"point pleasant, west virginia for mothman related reasons lol
LCPL wrote: "QOTD: What was your last disappointing read? Why?"I can't think of anything recently, two that I'd read in the past that stick out to me are Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell and Catcher In the Rye. Fangirl just felt like one big long run on sentence to me, no point, plot or anything interesting about it. Catcher made me really depressed reading it, but I didn't find it profound by any means.

I hated The Catcher in the Rye. Tried to read it years ago. It was a DNF.
LCPL wrote: "QOTD: What was your last disappointing read? Why?"In July, I rated Last Bus to Woodstock by Colin Dexter, 2 stars. I remember that I did not like it at all, but I cannot remember why.

LCPL wrote: "QOTD: What movies/TV shows do you enjoy watching during the fall season?"There aren't any tv shows/movies that I watch during a certain time of year. I guess if I had to pick a movie, it would be Planes, Trains, and Automobiles since it's during Thanksgiving.

QOTD: When you go into a bookstore, do you enjoy browsing the store for hours or do you go in with a specific list of books in mind and then leave?
It depends on the situation, although I rarely go into a bookstore when I don't have the time to browse. I enjoy browsing the most, and sometimes I'll make a list of books I'm interested in.
QOTD: It's spooky season! Choose a spooky season activity: Halloween party or exploring haunted places?
LCPL wrote: "QOTD: It's spooky season! Choose a spooky season activity: Halloween party or exploring haunted places?"exploring haunted places, but i like both
LCPL wrote: "What book(s) do you recommend reading during spooky season?"- Bird Box by Josh Malerman
- The Bad Seed by William March
- Let the Right One In by John Ajvide Lindqvist
Don’t season read and don’t read much horror, but would recommend Stephen King, Joe Hill, and Paul Tremblay.
