We all have our preferences when it comes to books, so today Andy and I are going over our biggest red flags in books, and what is usually a big turnoff for us when choosing what to read. We also take some time to discuss things we don't like about the book community in general. We would love to know what your biggest red flags are in a book, so make sure to let us know down below!
