DNF


I have another batch of dnfs, I did not want to post them all at once. Since January I have been reading many from the bottom of my TBR so the ones I have left are good books. These are mostly those I have taken from the library Take One Leave one table. And back there they gave gone.

Meh, weird.

First of it was boring
Second the heroine was so perfect
Third The hero, the way he was described...yeah
Fourth No

Meh meh meh

Not exactly bad, but for me to read 800 pages it has to be better than ok.
Too many fast pov changes. I need to get to know people to care

I tried, it was ok, but more and more povs showed up. Out of thin air and I never got to know them. I do not mind many povs but I could not remember anyone or care

  1. It happens. I come across a book that I just can't finish at times too.

  2. Sorry to hear that none of these worked out for you!! Long books like 800 pages...needs to be a very good book to enjoy it with the length.

  5. I read Irenicon a while ago, I remember enjoying it but I have not had the urge to continue the series. The Red Knight has also been on my tbr for years, but I still have not gotten to it. Heard some pretty mixed things about it too.

  7. I can handle a few POVs but too many and I don't enjoy reading.

  9. sorry these didn't work out. Glad that they were all library trades. I hope you were able to find some better ones when you traded these back in. I agree that too many POVs can get bad. I don't mind them, but agree that you have to have some time to get to know the characters.

  11. Oh dear! I hate DNFs :( Well, at least the have been re-homed! I actually don't know any of these - and I certainly won't be actively looking for them! I hope you have found some better ones recently!

    1. It's not like I was dying to read them, that is what is good about the exchange table at the library. many different kinds of donated books

  14. I'm sorry you had so many DNFs. Yikes 800 pages of okay? I never read any book so long, but if I do it would have to be better than okay.

  20. Awesome as always! I wanted to DNF a book I was listening to yesterday. But it was the last book in the series, so I up'd the speed to 2x and finished it.
