Maybe me? Maybe not the right time? maybe the book? Whatever the reason, it is a #bail I‘ll try again in the future but in my birthday month, I‘m only reading what I‘m loving. #Roll100

Hmm. This might not even get to 20% mark

ElizaMarie @dabbe YES !!! Thanks! I have decided it is time to #DNF this one; I had the time/option to use my Kindle on my phone yesterday, and instead of trying to read a chapter of this one, I decided to start a whole new book; this is a “sign“ to #Bail! 1mo

KadaGul @TheBookgeekFrau I started to read this book 📖 for Library Challenge. But u couldn't finish. It went sooooo slow. Like if this book 📖 was in a race w/ a snail 🐌 , Snail 🐌 will be a winner 🏆 for sure #SNOOZEFEST #BAIL #CNF 3mo
TheBookgeekFrau @KadaGul I can see your point. But I'm actually enjoying the MC's mindfulness and appreciation of her job. It's exactly the kind of read I need right now. 3mo
TieDyeDude I'm interested in what you think. I enjoyed it, but it was strange. 3mo
TheBookgeekFrau @TieDyeDude It is strange lol - I'm not disliking so far, so we'll see 😁 3mo

I started this for #AuthorAMonth when I was in a different place mentally than I‘ve been in the past few days. And I just didn‘t have the bandwidth anymore for a story about WWI soldiers with PTSD. I still have Ghost 19 I‘d like to read, but this is an “it‘s not you; it‘s me” #bail.

Soubhiville Totally understand, I bailed on her as well. I hope you‘re ok. 6mo
Megabooks @Soubhiville thanks 🫶🏻💜 I‘m working on it! 6mo
squirrelbrain Ghost 19 is very short, I think, so might be a better option. 6mo
Megabooks @squirrelbrain I think so because I have liked others by her. Plus I have it on audio! 👍🏻 6mo
Megabooks @squirrelbrain ended up reading Ghost 19 as a break while listening to The New Jim Crow. I still haven‘t liked any St. James as much as 6mo

I am more than halfway into this book and soooo confused! #bail I did take a cool picture of it at my dad‘s doctor appointment though!

Sorry I‘ve been inconsistently here. I‘ve been fighting migraines for the last week, and screens are a big trigger. But how can you not occasionally look?? I have an appointment with a neurologist next week, and I hope she can help. I went from 1 migraine day a month to about 7 per month in the last few months.

JamieArc I Hope you find answers and relief! 7mo
TheBookgeekFrau Fellow headache sufferer (not always migraines, but baaaadddd) 🙋🏻‍♀️ Hope you get some answers 🙏🏼 7mo
Soubhiville Oh no, I‘m sorry you‘ve been feeling rough. I hope you find out what‘s going on. 7mo

Megabooks @Cinfhen I‘m hoping I find a medicine that works!! 🫶🏻 I‘m sorry you get them too @TheBookgeekFrau 💜💜💜 7mo
Megabooks @BarbaraBB the last few months have been really rough. All through my 30s I had 1 day a month max. The past few months I‘ve been felled for entire weeks. Need to get to the bottom of it!! 7mo

Yeah, no. Language is way too flowery, and the book‘s pace suffers as a result #bookspin #bail #dnf

Despite the gorgeous cover, I can‘t go on with this book. When 4/5 every adults are cruel monsters & I find there‘s nothing “enjoyable” on the pages, I feel good calling it quits. Nope, NOT FOR ME 👎🏼 #DNF #BAIL #NoRegrets need to find a new audio ….

Megabooks Good choice! I should‘ve bailed too. This was definitely a disappointment. 2y
Cinfhen I was reading because it‘s on the #WomensPrizeLongList @Megabooks but it‘s not worth torturing myself 2y
Clwojick 😂😂 I didn‘t realize the reviews for this one were so bad! The only reason I‘m reading it is since it on the Reese Book Club list, and I decided to read the backlist. 2y
Cinfhen It‘s a real hit or miss on Litsy @Clwojick 😬I‘m obviously in the MISS category/ lmk if you pick it up!! 2y

This book was unfortunately very underwhelming for me. I decided to bail. Just couldn‘t bring myself to finish it.

Was not connecting with this one at all. #bail

Addison_Reads I've tried this author so many times over the years because people love his books. However, I've never been able to finish any of his books because I always feel disconnected and confused. 2y
PaperbackPirate Good job bailing! I read this with my book club so I went all the way to the bitter end. Not sure why people like it so much. 🤷🏼‍♀️ 2y

I‘m so sad I had to give this one up, but I just wasn‘t going anywhere for me. I love romantic comedies as much as the next gal, but this is a farce. BUT IT HAD A CORGI ON THE COVER. 😭
