Book Burning.
There comes a time in every reader's life when they read a book that they thought would be a really good book and not only does the book fall flat on that account, but it falls so far flat that you literally can't stand the book. I know that I've come across books that made me think, what the hell was I thinking, wasting all this time reading a book that I didn't even like. A book that had I had an open fire running, I would have tossed inside.
There are plenty of books we have read that fit the bill and I can't think of very many right now but I have two books that are sticking out in my mind right now, so I'll start with those.
I'm starting a virtual fire right now and all of my fellow readers out there, feel free to come and drop your most hated book into the fire. We're having ourselves a book burning. So come on and toss those books in, but you've got to let us know why you hated the book so much that you're burning it...I'm all kinds of curious to know why.
I've got a stack of books that are in my BURN pile, here's the first one:
I cannot flippin' stand this book, I read this book a few years ago and it started out wonderful, I was wrapped up in the characters, in love with the hero and the storyline started out just fantabulous and then it ended and I wanted to shoot JD in the head for ending it the way she did. I cannot believe it, I read an entire book thinking that a happy ending was coming, because ya'll know how retarded I am about happy endings and the happy ending JD gave Nicholas Stafford and Dougless Montgomery did NOT make me happy! I won't spoil anything or whatever, but DO NOT READ THIS BOOK, it sucks ass! She ended it the way she did because she wanted to give it a whole realistic ending???? What the hell does that mean? The entire damn book is a damn TIME TRAVEL, don't give me that shit! She needs to rewrite the ending to that book and because I know she isn't going to do that, I'm tossing it into the open fire...to BURN!
Another one that I want to toss into the fire is, Trading Up by Candace Bushnell. I kept wishing and hoping that Janey Wilcox would get better as the story progressed but she didn't and I just couldn't stand to read the book anymore, it was highly superficial about a bunch of people who have nothing better to do than to have sex with their friends husbands and it was just flighty and not at all something that I would ever care to read again. So, I'm tossing this book into the fire because I can't believe that I actually wasted my time trying to get through this book.
In you go.
So let's see those books ladies...What books are YOU tossing into the fire and why?
