My new system is now going to be that if at 20% into a book it hasn't grabbed my undivided attention in any way, then sorry but no dropping it and moving onto the next one. Because we have way too many other books with potential just waiting around in a pile. Ahuh. That's my new leaf girl. LOL!
Erin wrote: "Amanda wrote: "Erin wrote: "Well, was a bit of a dud for me, but my girl Gena Showalter is coming through once again with an AMAZING !! Damn,..."Aww heck. See now I'm going to have to move the Lords of the Underworld series up on my TBR list! You had me at HOT! Lmao!

Mod

I usually just skim read if it's still not grabbing me, just to see if it's salvageable. Should have done that with this one and saved an afternoon! LOL

I'm staying clear from you LOL
It hasnt been a good month. Lots of "meh" books and two dnfs. I gotta be careful about my next pick.
Erin wrote: "Belkis wrote: "Erin wrote: "Belkis wrote: "Erin wrote: "Belkis wrote: "Erin wrote: "Well, was a bit of a dud for me, but my girl Gena Showalter is coming through once aga..."Yup definitely. I'll probably go back to Rapture and continue it because I feel its going to be a good read it just wasn't wowing me so I figured I wasn't in a mood for it at this time. And I was right cause I'm loving Grave Mercy right now. But yes I think a nice combination of both would work to save us from wasting loads of reading time on meh or bad books. If nite captivated by 20-25% then shelf. And if on the fence because its nothing special then a little skimming to see if its salvageable and if not then shelf.

Rebecca ♥ Ash, Four, Peeta ♥ wrote: "It hasnt been a good month. Lots of "meh" books and two dnfs. I gotta be careful about my next pick."I'm sure you'll find a couple of great ones to read next :) have you read
LOL! sorry, but sooooo many great ones! Some I've read but many I have on waiting in my mountain of purchased books TBR and all of them very compelling reads.
Of course I didn't add
because with our non-stop discussions over these 3 books I figured you've read them already :D

Wow! So many recos! Thanks! I'm sure I'll find something. I've actually only read 3 of those. Grave Mercy, Immortal Rules, and Darkness Shows the Stars. I havent read those last 3. I've seen everyone talking about them but they don't sound like my kind of books. I'm not really a fan of contemporary or heavy reads.
Mod
was a bit of a dud for me, but my girl Gena Showalter is coming through once again with an AMAZING [bookcover:The Darkest N..."Oh it was fabulous, but really I don't Showalter will ever have a bad one. Her story-telling is just top-notch, and good god she makes you melt to a puddle just with the thoughts her heroes have!!

Cool :) okay now that I know your preference I can give you other recos to check out. I like to read so many different genres as long as the book is interesting (except for horror, hate scary) but love paranormal and romances of all kinds, YA, contem, chic lit :D
Have you read
Okay stopping now LOL! Just wanted to share some of the ones that have enticed me enough to purchase them. Some I've read and loved and others are waiting patiently for me to get to them :) so if any of these tempt you into reading it let me know how you liked it!
Erin wrote: "Belkis wrote: "Erin wrote: "Amanda wrote: "Erin wrote: "Well, was a bit of a dud for me, but my girl Gena Showalter is coming through once again with an AMAZING [bookcove..."Oh great. Thanks Erin! Will definitely try and start the first one at least to this series then because I like my paranormal and my romance especially when combined, sprinkled liberally with hot hot male leads, and stirred up in a well written story. So SOLD! LOL! Love it that we have such a broad range of reading genres and so many top notch choices to pick from. And that's how we end up with hundreds and hundreds of books waiting to be read :D

Oh...I'm new to this GR thing and I feel so bad after I rant! In the end I feel like you have a duty to keep GR's "real" by telling the truth! I've not written reviews (not even put them on my list) because of this very thing. I'd rather people rant. Just my humble opinion ;) "
I write a review for every book I read. Ranting usually implies that the person is being emotional. I try to be objective, but I am very thorough. I like to inform ppl, so I feel bad for not reviewing I Am Alive. But for the author it is far too personal. I would feel bad. Maybe when I am over it a bit, and not so emotional, than I can handle writing a proper review. It will still be extremely negative.
