Follow Friday #16 / Book Blogger Hop #16


Q. Let's step away from besties...What is the worst book that you've ever read and actually finished?

Hmm, without a doubt The Forest People by Colin Turnbull. I agreed to read it for a book club and was bored nearly to death. I did finish as I didn't want to let the group down, but I really skim-read and breathed a sigh of relief when I turned the last page.

Book Blogger Hop




This week the task is to link to a blog giveaway hosted by another blogger.

I found one for you all:

SpadesHighReads is hosting a giveaway for a ARC of YA book Wolf Storm by Dee Garretson, so get over there now and get your name in the running!

  2. Doesn't it feel like a waste of your time since you gained absolutely nothing from it?

  3. Hmmm... that title doesn't even sound good! Way to take one for the team and finish the whole thing :)

  4. That's why I never joined a book club. They want you to read the most boring books sometimes.

  5. The Forest People? Sounds weird. I agree with Kristy, book clubs aren't all that great sometimes.

  8. Hi there, new follower here from the hop! Love your blog! :)

    I haven't read a lot that I didn't like lately too. I now have something to skip from adding to my TBR list. Happy Friday!

  9. I've heard of that book before, but I don't think I've ever had the desire to read it. Good to know that I'm not missing anything. :)

  13. Hopping through. I've never heard of that book. Book club books are hard since it's not always your choice what to read.
