Need help setting up a booktok

[Fierce]

I've never had a booktok account and I'm nervous if my taste in books (and media in general) or how slowly I tend to read will cause people to dislike me.

Things I'm worried about people disliking me over

I don't like spicy books; I think Y/A shouldn't have porn in it (I'm 15); I love middle grade because of the lack of spice; I mostly read manga; I'm generally a weird person; I have a fursuit in my room and like 25 self painted dinomasks; I'm autistic and adhd (diagnosed); I'm pretty damn blunt; I tend to give lower ratings if sex is even slightly present; I'm open about being a demi aroace lesbian; I love weird gorey horror (example: Vita carnis on youtube); I plan to keep snakes

Do you guys think I should still join the community even with my worries?

If making a booktok is a passion/something you really want to do, then go for it! There will always be someone who likes the same stuff as you & people who wont. I say go for it. You have a right to your interests and opinions :)

There are a lot of open-minded, accepting people on booktok, and many people have different taste in books, but if you are active posting about books you like and sharing your bookish stuff, you will gain friends and followers, especially if you also follow other bookish people. Most people who want to connect with others about books or get recs on books will follow you back when you follow them. I like a lot of different genres and my friends and followers on booktok also have varying tastes and it seems to work fine. Unfortunately, there will always be people out there who are unkind, but don't let that stop you from finding the ones that aren't.
