Day 11 – A book that disappointed you
I received an advanced reader’s copy of this book from the publisher. The fourth time I fell asleep within the first 50 pages, I gave up trying. Since I don’t review books I can’t finish, I never posted anything about it.
Something about this book just didn’t grab me. I couldn’t figure out why the main character would take a call in the middle of the night from her ex-boyfriend, let alone why she’d care if he disappeared. Maybe that’s just my perspective – I sure didn’t mind when my last ex left town.
I always feel vaguely guilty when I don’t enjoy a book, but ultimately I had to decide that my TBR-pile is much too large to keep trying with a book that doesn’t grab me.
Kiara
Kiara possesses a dry wit, a sharp sarcasm, and a towering intellect. Her secret alter ego has a boring™ day job, but at night she writes and reviews speculative fiction. She carries the keys to dozens of hearts in her pockets and jumps puddles in a single bound. Her superhero power is losing her socks before they've even made it into the dryer. She also likes to tell stories, so parts of this bio may be exaggerated. Waiting for Fairies is not responsible for any credulity that may be lost in the reading of this bio.
