Heather M. reviewed Didn't finish...unusual for me on 2/25/2009 + 5 more book reviews

Helpful Score: 1

Maybe it's just that I have too many books in my "to read" pile, but I didn't finish this one and decided to post it without trying to finish it.

I picked it up in an airport bookstore recently and had some high expectations for it. Maybe too high. I read the first person's story and then started in on the second and lost steam. The beginning of the book was so bizarre I was turned off and intrigued at the same time. But then when I discovered that the second chapter was another (seemingly unconnected) person's story, I found I didn't have the patience to keep reading or the interest to find out how the various pieces may tie together.

Maybe it's my mood or my current stack of books, but I didn't feel like bothering to struggle any further with this one. It is very unusual for me to not finish a book (I think I can count on one hand how many I have chosen to not finish in my entire life) but it seems to be a trend with me lately. This is the third book I have picked up and grown bored with too quickly.

Sorry! Hope someone else enjoys it more than I did!
