Is it wrong to be suspicious when someone buys an ebook and then returns it like 3 hours later?

I just wrote "All that work, and what did it get them" into a story, and I hope that at some point, some reader reads it and hears the tiktok sound in their head.

So I think I don't like books written in present tense. Not that it's bad if they are, it's just personal preference. When reading, even if it isn't explicit, I've always felt that a book is a record of something that has happened, so past tense always feels right. #booksky #writingcommunity
