Yes – it’s Wednesday. Deal with it. My Tuesday was absolute madness at work, with the kids and when I finally had 15 minutes to sit down and do the post I was about 2 paragraphs from finished when everything just went haywire and I lost my entire post. So suck it up buttercups I didn’t feel like redoing it last night and will therefor redo it now… Cos I have to share.
TTT (Top Ten Tuesday @ That Artsy Girl)
This week’s TTT is the Top Ten books I abandoned / DNFed.
This one was a bit of a tough one for me… I don’t abandon and I don’t DNF (is that a double negative?) I have a really really hard time putting a book down if I have started it. My imagination does not allow it because I just keep on thinking about what might have happened. And then I end up just going back to it just to see what happened. I actually once read a twincest book (because I didn’t know that was what I was getting into) and I finished it because. Well. I guess it ended up being interesting and actually had a really good story.
Which leads me to my second point… I have a motto. Regret nothing. Everything makes me who I am, even the things I probably should have done. Reading that book actually opened up my book reading world to a whole different genre and really tend to enjoy some of it sometimes.
So I will adjust this weeks topic to 10 Books I probably should never have read but ended up doing anyway.
First up the 5 books I shouldn’t have read as they were just a bit more then I expected. But ended up not being to bad.
Next up would be the 5 books I started and did not enjoy finishing. Yes some of them will shock. So I am not a classics fan. *gasp*
Teaser Tuesday @ The Purple Booker
The rules here are simple. Grab the book your busy with, open on a random page and quote 2 snippets from that page. Just don’t spoil the book for your fellow readers and don’t forget to give us the title and author of the book.
Got this one as a review request – My teaser:
My gaze wanders to the door again. I am looking for the stranger, the one who saved me last night. He hasn’t come to the bar tonight, and I realize that I have been waiting for him.
It is a really interesting read. Has a few issues. but the story line is crazy intriguing (if a little weird)
First Chapter, First Paragraph, Tuesday Intros with @ Socrates Book Reviews
“Are you nervous?” Klaus asks, pulling me from my reflection in the mirror. I am sixteen now, the age which the next king marries. In two more years, I will be taking my seat as ruler of Clearwater Kingdom and the protector of this realm and others.
So like I said – a little buggy. But once I got into the story line it got a little difficult to put the book down tbh.
So are you someone that gives a book all you have? Or are you one of the lucky ones that can put it down if you find it dissatisfying.
Be Safe!
These books and authors are new to me. I’ll be watching for your reviews. Thanks for visiting my blog.
Thanks for returning the favour 🙂
I finished the Sylvia Day series and 100% should not have bothered!
I know right! Thanks for stopping by.
These all sound good. I hope you enjoy them!
