It’s started out SO good!!

The book and I had SUCH an amazing connection, you know?

And I was REALLY loving it; and I was getting ready to introduce it to the family; and then…

*BOOM!*

I got stood up at around the 40% percent line.

-:- Seriously! I might as well have been wearing a prom dress. -:-

____________________________________________

After the 40% mark: this book’s storyline deteriorated like… well, like deterioration. :)

You know how… with some books, you reach the halfway mark, and you’re kind of wishing a HUGE, massive natural disaster would just come in and completely wipe out all of the main characters?

IT’S NOT GOOD.

And that’s how this book was.

And now I’m sad.

"That's All" Ash Thanks, Pavlina! It's pretty good so far... I'm thinkin' three stars for the first novel! But we'll see! ;)


"That's All" Ash Yeah, Jacqueline... the first quarter of the first book was pretty good! But I'm kind of getting annoyed by Vincent! Lol... he's just TOO perfect, know what I mean?


Jacqueline's Reads yeah, but every once in awhile you have to root for the nice ones :D


"That's All" Ash True!

message 26: by Christy (new)

Christy Good luck! I hate going through a book slump... I've had some good ones lately so I can't complain!


"That's All" Ash Lol... it happens, though, ya know? I think one good thing about a book slump is that it means that somewhere along the way, ya came across a book that raised the bar, causing every book to pale a little in comparison! So I guess that's a good thing!

Maybe? :)

Jenn oh no! cruddy you didn't love this one.


"That's All" Ash Jenn wrote: "oh no! cruddy you didn't love this one."

No worries! I can definitely see where people would LOVE this book... I mean, it was well-written! It just wasn't for me. ;)


message 30: by Jenn (new) - rated it 4 stars

Jenn That happened with me and The Edge of Never. I didn't love it when everyone else raved on about it. Some books just end up that way. :o) Well...on to the next. What will you read next?

I'm actually a book by an amazing comedian... It's called "Baby, You're as Sweet as 3.14159265" by HogWild. It's HILARIOUS because it's about dating and things like that. I've busted out laughing twice already!

Danielle I love this !!!


Sabrina I'm at the 70% mark and had to come back to double check that this book had a 4-star average. Wish I had found your review before because SPOT ON.

So much potential and now I just feel like I'm watching the slowest, most painful car crash ever.

It's CRAZY how deceiving average ratings can be! There have been many a time when I've had to do what you did and check to make sure that I didn't read the average wrong. :/ Sometimes I'm like, "Seriously?". Lol... I'm sorry you felt the same as I did with this one! And if you're looking for an amazing book to read, check out my "favorites" shelf and let me know what you think of those! :)
