Follow Friday & Book Blogger Hop (13)
On fridays I participate in both Follow Friday and the Book Blogger Hop.
Follow Fridays is hosted by Parajunkee's View, and is just Fridays.
The Book Blogger Hop is hosted by Crazy-for-Books, and runs Friday to Monday. There are new rules for the hop, so make sure to check out Crazy for Books for the details.
This week's question from Crazy for Books:
When you read a book that you just can't get into, do you stick it out and keep reading or move to your next title?
I have to stick it out, no matter how much I don't care for it. There is two reasons for this. One, there is always the chance it could get better. I'm even the same way with series, just because the first one isn't good doesn't mean the rest of the series won't be. The second reason I have to finish is that even though I don't like the book I still need to know what happens. It would drive me insane to not know the ending.
This week's question from Parajunkee:
Well, if you have read Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl, then I definitely recommend Beautiful Darkness. Otherwise I recommend you read Beautiful Creatures, then Beautiful Darkness. Awesome!

Hi, I'm a new follower :-) I had such a hard time getting through Beautiful Creatures that I ended up putting it down. I don't understand why b/c I've heard such great things about it. Will definitely give it another try though.

Hopping by to return the follow! Great blog! So many reviews, I was browsing through some of them! I noticed you said you didn't care a lot for the Downside slang on Unholy Ghosts, that was one of the things I loved best about the series, it sounds great on audio lol. Stopping by to join your giveaway too while I'm here :-) Thanks for dropping by my blog and happy hopping Friday!

Just hoppin’ on by <3 You have SUCH a lovely template! I'm an old follower/lover <3
ReplyDeleteYou're the first person I've come across with an answer remotely similar to mine! :) I usually stick books out, even if it annoys me like crazy. I like giving fair chances to books, and I feel incomplete if I don’t finish it. I’ve even stuck it through an entire series I absolutely hated (*coughVampireKnightcough*)

lol, but how long does it take you to finish books you really aren't enjoying?
