It’s an infographic which sets up a “taxonomy” of book lovers — and book haters.
Me, I’m not a “book horder”, because even though I have way, way (way) more books than I have time to read, I also give away tons of books, so I think that keeps me out of hoarder territory.
I’m kind of a “book preserver”, but not as much as I used to be.
If I had to pick just one “species” for myself, it’d be the “immersive” reader; one of the more alien species to me is the “multitasker”; but I think definitely the funniest category is the “show-off”.
Preserver, Free range, omnivore. I can’t stand marked up books, the markups are seriously distracting. Signs of use (dog-eared pages, etc.) are ok.
I DETEST marked-up books, but I’m not keen on dog-eared pages, either.
