What stays consistent is that they stick to what they know. A mood reader can exhibit either one of these behaviors. What you may lack in width, you make up for in depth. If you’re only in the mood for YA fantasy novels, then you probably have read the popular ones and many of the lesser known ones.

With that in mind, once you find a genre or series that fits your mood, and the mood sticks around, you’ve probably read all the books in that category. In other words, you may have width, but not much depth. You could read a thriller one day and then a fantasy the next. You may have read a few books across genres, but don’t know a genre and all the major authors quite well.
You’ve tasted many books, but depending on your mood, you might not have devoured many. Next, you’re familiar with a lot of titles and genres, but you can’t always recommend a particular book, because you haven’t finished many of them. You’ve Read Widely, But Not Deeply - Or Vice Versa Maybe, you’ll never be in the mood! That’s okay. You may know that some of the earlier ones are great, but you just can’t bring yourself to read them because you need to be in a certain mood. Instead of sifting through ones you added early on, it’s easier for you to just review the most recent additions. This can also mean that you probably haven’t touched many of the titles you added to your TBR list awhile ago. Don’t feel like reading the bestselling biography you heard about last week? That’s okay! Drop it in your TBR and maybe you’ll find yourself reading it later. Why? Because you never know what you’ll be in the mood for. If you’re a mood reader, you probably have a ginormous TBR list. You Have a Huge TBR List That You Haven’t Really Touched This also means that you may not read for weeks because you’re not in the mood to read any particular book or don’t know what book will fit in with your mood. If your friend gives you a recommendation AND you’re intrigued? That night, you buy the book. When a book catches your eye at a bookstore, those errands are going to have to wait, because you need to start reading it now.
If you’re really into the webtoon you recently discovered, you’re reading that on your breaks and after work. You read whenever you feel like it and don’t necessarily have a specific time you read each day. Once they’re no longer in the mood to read that book, there’s no telling whether they’ll pick it up again.Īnother clue is that you read sporadically. This is because they won’t force themselves to continue reading a book, even if it’s good or has been highly recommended. Their TBR may be huge, but their DNF can also get quite long. Signs That You Are a Mood Reader You Have Many Unfinished Books & a Sporadic Reading Scheduleįirst and foremost, a mood reader is someone who has many books they haven’t finished. With that said, how can you tell if you’re a mood reader? Well, I’ve got a few signs that can help you figure that out. They consistently switch books until they find a book, author, series, or genre that fits their mood. Anyone can have a time where they stopped reading a book or had to take a break once they felt a certain way, but a mood reader does this on the regular. Many people can be swayed by their emotions and stop a book if they aren’t in the mood, but a mood reader is more steadfast in their inconsistency. Does this happen more often than not? Well, then you might be a mood reader. All you can say is that you’re not in the mood. Why can’t you just pick it back up and push through? Why can’t you give it another try? You can’t explain it. You close the app and stare at the book sitting on your coffee table. Maybe you google, “books for when you’re feeling _.” Unfortunately, you don’t find what you’re looking for. If you’re lucky, you find something right away and start reading it. Instead, you scroll through your library app and see if there is something else that will strike your fancy within the next ten minutes. You doubt you’ll pick it back up anytime soon. You sigh, close the book, and cast it aside. You don’t feel like reading about this new character. After a few moments, you can’t fight it any longer. As you hum to yourself, you try to focus on the descriptions, the words, and imagery. You are so excited to start reading this book that’s been on your TBR list for months. Maybe you have some soothing music playing in the background.
