TBR-ed! | giving you book recommendations based on your MBTI

Posted on by nikitha @nikszine in renegade, TBR'ed!, Uncategorized

MBTI is something i’ve been into for quite a while now, especially the MBTI memes and tier-lists. so apparently there are 16 personality/ MBTI types and once you know your MBTI, you’ll be able to understand why you do the things you do on a deeper level.

my MBTI is ENTP and i fully agree with this reasoning. enough of the small talk, let’s just scroll down and look at the book recs for all the 16 MBTI types~

hope you liked that post!! it took quite a long time to make because i wanted to make sure i understood some of the MBTI types before randomly giving book recommendations. i used the 16 personalities test but i have no idea how accurate it is. i took a few other MBTI tests randomly on the internet and i’ve been getting ENTP all the while, so i’m pretty contended with that~

i’ve also had a bit of free time on my hands and so i’ve been watching penthouse season 03 with some of my friends. we all have a love-hate relationship with it and the plot depth really drives me crazy. it’s just so– SKSKSKSKSKSKKSSKSKKSKSKAHHHHHHHHHHARHGHGHGKSKSKSKSKSK aka keyboard smash.

i also re-watched haikyuu season 02 and tsukishima is officially my fave character. i also watched nevertheless the k-drama but i don’t really like it as much. theres too much mush but no actual action. once the season 01 ends i’ll just watch the last two episodes to catch up.

anyways, i hope everyone’s doing good and stayng safe~ wear a mask when you go out!

one another ending note, i feel like i’m somehow socially distancing myself from reading but i don’t know why lol
