Abandoned Books
I came across a comment in passing that gave me pause to consider what I’ve been writing here. Specifically, I don’t review a lot of books I don’t like.
There’s a very good reason for this–I don’t read a lot of books I don’t like.
When I pick up a book I don’t like, I tend to abandon it; typically thinking, “Well, maybe I’m just not in the mood for this right now. Perhaps I’ll come back to it later.”
So here are some reviews of some books that I started and abandoned. Please feel free to tell me if the book gets better later, and I should really slog through fifty more pages, because the payoff will be worth it.
