Jamie Gave Up or Indefinitely Put aside

I actually started this off with book 8 in the series not knowing it was a series and I won in here on GR but wasn't too into it then read the first. Whole series is just too much drama and cheating for me it seems. I actually liked book 8 more than 1 but just wasn't feeling it enough to continue.
Mod
Nothing wrong with this series really just too young and yet not encaging for older audiences or parents to even read to/with their kids in my opinion.
Mod
I barely started this book. It was bad. I couldn't even give it 30 minutes of my time. I hate saying that but yeah this was a fast nope.
Mod
Boring for me and didn't like the art. This is one I might try again if I have somehow fully caught up on just about everything else I might want to read.
Mod
What had I read?! Bizarre and strange but not in a good way. Forget Goodnight Punpun. How about Goodbye Punpun. Not for me.
Mod
Another that I liked but I am not concerned about reading this as a series. I can enjoy as a standalone and may or may not pick up the other railway childrens books randomly in the future.
I tend to only read children's books for challenges or to boost my reading challenge. ^_^
Mod
I use them for 24/48 hour readathon breathers. Also I used to be a volunteer reader to kids at the library so I read some that way. But that is why they are here. I don't very often and its one of those things that if I don't continue I really don't care.
Same. When I first got into audios I listened to a few of
books. I think because most of them don't really have a continuing story line I don't feel like I need to finish them. :)
Mod
books. I think because most of them don't really have a continuing story line I don't feel like I need to fi..."Exactly. If I really loved it I added it to read the others but even good isn't enough often.
Mod
Meh. Not worth my time to continue.
Mod
Amusing when Anne Hathaway did the audio but then they went downhill. Both narrator and story. It's okay but honestly I only listened because she acted in the movies and did the narrator for the first 2 books. Small chance I'll pick up the next one just because for an easy listen or challenge but way, way down the priority list and no intentions to do so in the foreseeable future.
Mod
Just couldn't connect and now I barely remember anything. Not worth the re-read to continue.
Mod
*Blink Blink Blink* What happened here?!
Mod
I wasn't impressed. These aren't cheap and my library doesn't have them so not worth my finances to finish.
Mod
I actually liked this but its been 8 years since it was published and no sequel in sight. My guess is since it didn't get many ratings at all the author gave up. Pity.
Mod
I didn't know this was a series until today! I thought the book was dent but not worth seeking out the others.
Mod
I gave this 2 books and just couldn't get into it. Very low chance of a third.
Mod
The first one was decent the second just started to feel repetitive. Another series I doubt I will ever pick back up.
Mod
Potential but a bad start turned me off. MIGHT give a chance in the future but far far from anytime soon.
Mod
I know its popular but I wasn't a fan.
Mod
*Face Palm* This is the crap I find when I am bored.
Mod
I never read the previous books but that didn't seem necessary. Unimpressed and unmemorable in the end.
Mod
I don't know what happened here. There was no story in the copy I had. Yet others did so I was willing to just track a final copy down but even those people said the story they got was confusing.
Mod
I know it is only 5 volumes but I was so bored. Bland story and characters... If I run out of other mango I actually want to read and have access to I might come back to this but very low odds.
Mod
I just wasn't impressed. I'd rather read the novels. Not a fan of the art.
Mod
Ugh. I don't think I've ever been as angry at a book as I was at this one.
Mod
I liked the first book as a child. As ad adult, less impressed but still enjoyable. And then came this and I lost interest.
Mod
Either I just didn't like this, regardless how popular it was, or I have grown away from the author. Will try another book at some point to find out. I have 2 stacks of them...
Mod
I remember I loved the movie. I liked the book alright but didn't love it. With the multitude of author changes it doesn't hold too much interest.
Mod
I wanted to like that. I adored old Harry/Draco fanfiction and I loved Rainbow Rowell's previous novels. But I didn't like how this was written. Too cheesy.
Mod
This was only so-so from the beginning and rapidly crashed and burned for me.
Mod
Rather bored with this. Doubtful I'll ever pick this back up.
Mod
Nope. Not my thing.
Mod
Meh. Not really worth my time right now.
Mod
This was okay but I don't see it as a series worth pursuing at this point in time.
Mod
These are both only dualogies but I didn't like them at all! Nope, not worth my time or shelf space. local bookstore gonna get some rare manga (so hard to find used).

Not in a big hurry to finish this one. Maybe but HIGHLY doubtful I ever will. I have thousands of books on my TBR.

I remember liking this first book but remember little about it after all these years (20 or years) and had no idea until recent years there even was a sequel. To read the 2nd I would have to re-read the first and I don't think I am that into it at this point in my reading adventure. I won't say never but I don't see myself actively seeking this book out
Mod
2/4 (5 is set to come out 12/25/2034 WAY far off in the future and oddly specific...) Honestly over the whole twilight thing on top of it.

Seems like unrelated romance. Rather pointless to view as a series IMO.

**Alright so I added a few picture books but from this point in I might not add them here. Consider it a random read if I read a picture book that is part of a series. Same with Really early reader chapter books. Updated 6/2/19
