πŸ§ΎπŸ“š SHOW US YOUR BOOK RECEIPTS! πŸ“šπŸ§Ύ

🚨 ATTENTION READERS: YOU ARE BEING AUDITED. 🚨

We are conducting a completely unauthorized investigation into your personality based solely on your recent reading history. πŸ˜‚

No questionnaires. No personality tests. Just receipts.

πŸ‘‡ DROP THE LAST 3 BOOKS YOU READ IN THE COMMENTS.

That's it. Don't explain your choices. Don't defend yourself. Just hand over the evidence. πŸ§ΎπŸ‘€

THEN THE REAL FUN STARTS...

πŸ”Ž Find someone else's comment and look at their three books.

Based ONLY on those books, make ONE assumption about that person.

Maybe they're a hopeless romantic. ❀️
Maybe they clearly have a thing for morally questionable people. 🚩
Maybe they enjoy being emotionally destroyed for recreation. 😭
Maybe they haven't trusted another human being since 2017. πŸ”ͺ
Maybe their reading history has you genuinely concerned. πŸ˜‚

DO NOT EXPLAIN YOUR ASSUMPTION.

Just drop it and WALK AWAY. πŸ’€

Then come back and see what people assumed about YOU!

Rate their investigation:

🎯 10/10 β€” DISTURBINGLY ACCURATE
πŸ˜‚ 5/10 β€” Okayyy... you got part of me
🚫 0/10 β€” WHO DO YOU THINK I AM?!

🎟️ GIVEAWAY ENTRIES

πŸ“š +1 entry for dropping your 3 books
πŸ”Ž +1 entry for each person you analyze
πŸ’¬ +1 bonus entry for each reply/conversation
❀️ +1 entry for liking this post
πŸ“² +2 bonus entries for sharing!

I'll go first. Here are my receipts: 🧾

πŸ“• Maniacs β€” Sheridan Anne
πŸ“— I've Found Her β€” Joy Mullett
πŸ“˜ You Deserve to Know β€” Aggie Blum Thompson

There you have it.

Three books. No context. No defense. πŸ˜‚

Go ahead...

πŸ‘€ What do my last three reads make you assume about me?

I'm already regretting this. πŸ’€πŸ˜‚πŸ“š

πŸ–οΈ A HAND
πŸ“¦ And one VERY disturbing little package...

And just when Maude thought she had it figured outβ€”everything changed. πŸ‘€

Because Maude may have been watching the wrong person...

but someone has been watching MAUDE. πŸ˜³πŸ”Ž

πŸ“šπŸ₯Š DAY 6 - FICTIONAL CHARACTERS YOU WOULD FIGHT IN A PARKING LOT πŸ₯ŠπŸ“š

Book Besties, we have officially lost the plot. πŸ˜‚

We all have THAT character.

The one who made you so angry that simply closing the book wasn't enough.

The one you wanted to reach through the pages and say:

β€œYou. Me. Parking lot. NOW.” 😀

So here's the scenario:

🚫 No weapons.
🚫 No magic.
🚫 No supernatural abilities.
🚫 NO PLOT ARMOR.

Just you, them, and the Dollar General parking lot at 8:47 PM. πŸ˜‚πŸ’€

πŸ₯Š WHO ARE YOU FIGHTING?!

And more importantly...

πŸ‘€ WHY?!

🎟️ HOW TO EARN ENTRIES

πŸ₯Š +1 ENTRY for EACH fictional character you're willing to meet in the parking lot.

❀️ +1 ENTRY for liking this post.

πŸ’¬ BONUS ENTRIES for replying to other Book Besties! Defend their choice. Question their judgment. Volunteer to hold their earrings. πŸ˜‚

πŸ“£ +1 BONUS ENTRY for sharing!

⚠️ And remember...

This is a FICTIONAL parking lot.

Please do not actually fight anyone at Dollar General. πŸ€£πŸ“šπŸ’€
