i thought it was just me.

This happens to me a lot

Happens a lot

They need to describe people from the start or not describe them at all cause I can't handle this!!!

At that point I just ignore it

Don't get me started authors should make that shit clear from the start ffs

I thought Uriah from Divergent was going to be Indian looking, not black

I read this one 3-book series about students trapped in a mall quarantine and I went back to reread the first book and I found out that one of the main characters is black.

I read once this visual novel (no idea the name), where some of the characters were drawn really ambiguosly, and the names didn't help because for the first chapters or so, no names were ever uttered. It wasn't until almost half way through some names started to appear, and I was like "Who on Earth is Ruth/Adam/whatever-name?", and then I'd go back and reread the stuff only to realize the girly looking boy was, in fact, female. Or the tomboyish looking girl was actually a teenager boy. It gave me a headache at the time.

Once I thought the main character was male, turns it it was a she. I didn't find out until the sequel

Yasssss!

Oh mY gOD DON'T get me started on this. The most awful thing is to realise that the character has another haircolour, no but for real. Think about it. Imagine your character with another haircolour/hairstyle, it totally changes their entire face and just the whole them!

*Looks at Hazel from Heroes of Olympus*
I THOUGHT I KNEW YOU!

Hunger Games

I hate when this happens, but I guess that makes me a bit of a hypocrite, because when I write, I always forget to put in character details, and then I just kind've put them in later... oops.

I hate when this happens!

but then you can't get that image out of your head and you get very confused

I hate when the looks of the character in the movie doesn't match the character of the book #TheBookIsBetter

And even when they describe them perfectly at the beginning, you pay no attention to it

Note: I am NOT a racist person, but in this series called the Maximum Ride series, there was an African American girl named Nudge. It didn't actually tell us that until like book 4. What the heck?!

YAAASSSS THE PAIN

Nymphadora Tonks really fucked me us with that shape-shifting.

I still think the darkling should have had white hair
