BookTok Arguments On Repeat
Are you tired of scrolling through your TikTok feed and seeing the same old bookish arguments over and over again? Well, fear not, because we’re here to break down the top five bookish arguments that keep getting recycled on the book-loving side of TikTok.
- E-books vs. physical books
It’s the age-old argument: are e-books better than physical books, or vice versa? While some argue that e-books are more convenient and environmentally friendly, others believe that there’s nothing quite like the feel and smell of a physical book. But let’s be real, we all know the real answer: it doesn’t matter as long as you’re reading!
- YA vs. adult fiction
Is YA fiction just for teenagers, or can adults enjoy it too? Some argue that YA fiction is overly simplistic and lacks the depth of adult fiction, while others believe that it tackles important issues and can be just as thought-provoking as any adult novel. Personally, we think that as long as you’re enjoying what you’re reading, it doesn’t matter what category it falls into.
- Classic literature vs. modern literature
Are the classics really better than modern literature, or are we just clinging to outdated notions of what constitutes “good” literature? While some argue that the classics have stood the test of time for a reason, others believe that modern literature is just as valid and important. In the end, it’s all about personal preference.
- Physical books vs. audiobooks
Okay, so we’ve covered e-books vs. physical books, but what about physical books vs. audiobooks? While some argue that listening to a book isn’t the same as physically reading it, others believe that audiobooks are a great way to multitask and consume more books. Again, it all comes down to personal preference. I always will argue that consuming audiobooks is a method of reading.
- The great bookshelf debate
Last but not least, we have the great bookshelf debate. Should your books be arranged alphabetically, by color, or by genre? While some argue that alphabetical is the only way to go, others believe that organizing by color makes for a visually stunning bookshelf. And let’s not forget about those who prefer to organize by genre for maximum organization. In the end, it’s your bookshelf, so do what makes you happy!
So there you have it, the top five bookish arguments that keep getting recycled on the book-loving side of TikTok. But at the end of the day, we all know that the most important thing is to keep reading and enjoying the books we love!
