DNF time
I tried my best, I loved book 1. But this one was so BORING. Nothing happened. She went to a place, found a halfie. Drama
She went to another place, halfie, drama.
She went, yes you see my point.
Read a review to see spoilers. Oh, that was the end? F it. I am glad I dnf:ed.
I did not like it, and then the rape came. I do not need that as a plot device.
Also this was to be UF, this felt very pnr from the little I read. And we all know I am quite over that. I guess she hooked up with vamp guy at the end and lala forgot her horrid experience.
No.
I started reading and was all this is so boring! DNF
Then I read the blurb, and thought, fine I will push through a bit. But even when she came to the fantasy land I was all sigh, she is rather stupid, they are rather stupid. Why bother.
I'm so glad I wasn't the only who couldn't finished Shadow Scale.
ReplyDeleteGood work this week... but... where are Luci's pictures?
Oh no! *sends a Luci pic*
DeleteYou had a great week of exercise!
ReplyDelete:)
DeleteYou're obviously very fit. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a pretty solid workout this week even though Zumba was canceled!
ReplyDeleteIt did make me sad, oh well
DeleteNot a lot of DNFs this time around :D
ReplyDeletePretty pics!!!
Thanks :)
DeleteI'm so sad about Eternal Vows. That cover is AMAZING.
ReplyDeleteIt was so meh
DeleteAgain with the insane amount of exercising! Well done *applause, applause* Don't know the last two books, but Shadow Scale...hm. I think you're naturally drawn to books with energetic plots, and the Seraphina series is all about the writing. I know lots of people who couldn't take to Maggie Stiefvater for the same reason. I think it can be a challenge, drawing enjoyment in a book from the crafting of the phrases. Marcel Proust, for instance, in A la recherche du temps perdu has phrases that are one page long. It takes a lot of time to get through a page :) But many people find it rewarding. Loving your thoughts and take-no-prisoners attitude though :) You keep me on my toes!
ReplyDeleteI loved Seraphina! It was so good, but damn I was soooo bored here.
DeleteAnd I love writing and language, but here, nothing to enjoy. Nothing to get lost in. I can't just have words, cos yes I need a story too
Boo on the dnfs. Bummer you've had so many lately.
ReplyDeleteEh, I am fine with it
DeleteAre those geese in the pic? Love your walks as always! Boo for dnfs... I really hope I enjoy Shadow Scale.
ReplyDeleteSwans :)
DeleteAnd thanks!
I hope you enjoy it :/
The DNF's sound pretty bad - especially that second one :-((
ReplyDeleteKaren @For What It's Worth
I am glad I can dnf, cos to go through them all... 0_0
DeleteI was curious about Queen of Shadows and it's in fact in my wishlist. Now I'm sad.
ReplyDeleteMaybe you would like it...but then I read reviews for future books and NO WAY
DeleteYour DNF of Shadow Scale is so sad, but you're the second person I know who did. Not looking optimistic for when I'm going to read it soon, but here's still hoping! :)
ReplyDelete~Mogsy @ BiblioSanctum
I just not get into it :(
DeleteBut maybe you will like it...hopefully
Is there still snow where you live ? I've been complaining on the grey/rainy weather all week so today, of course, the sky is blue and the sun is shining ! At last, we deserved it. Sorry about the DNF, hope the next will be better ;)
ReplyDeleteIt comes and goes. No snow, snow, no snow, ice, snow, I am tired of it
DeleteHope all the classes get back to normal for you
ReplyDeleteActually many are ending now, sigh
DeleteYou did good!! Nice photos too but omg you still have snow.
ReplyDeleteWe had none, then we had more again
DeleteLovely pics again! Bummer that zumba was cancelled. I love that. :-) Sorry to hear Shadow Scale didn't work for you. It did for me, but I agree it is slow and takes it's time getting going.
ReplyDeleteI just do not know what went wrong with it :(
