Tell me two items of clothing you hate to wear and why
bathing suits because of the fat factor and long skirts because they make me look short (ha! there's some negativity for you!)Tell me two books you never finished and why
Well I have an obsession with finishing what I started (as far as books go cleaning house is another story) so it is very rare.It took over 2 years to finish
because I found it hard to get into the first time and could not bring myself to try again until so many told me I must. I like it when I finally read it :)
I really enjoyed it for the first half but it got very long and less exciting. Personal issues came up and I stopped reading it. I feel I would have to start over at this point if I were to finish and it is just so long to do that and there are so many books to read.Tell me two things that will make you give 5 stars to a book
