bailedGertrude and I are really not feeling this book and I‘m not sure why. I just can‘t finish this book. I even tried it on audio. I‘m over half way through and I just have to bail even though Less tries to #flyonthewingsoflove. #toomanybookssolittletime #septemberdanes
#canicountthisforbooked2018 even though I didn‘t finish it?
TrishB I bailed too! I hardly ever bail. 6y
saresmoore I bailed, too. It felt too much like reading chick lit. 6y
ephemeralwaltz Aww interesting! I hadn't seen any negative reviews around here. @TrishB @saresmoore 6y

TrishB @ephemeralwaltz I definitely posted one a couple of months! I just thought it was boring and not funny. We‘re in a minority though. 6y
MrsMalaprop @saresmoore @TrishB I have to read it for my book club this month 😬. Be interested to see which side of the fence I‘m on 🤔. 6y
emilyhaldi Bummer 👎🏻 6y
JamieArc It was very Meh for me. I nearly bailed. In the book, people tell the main character that they had a hard time feeling sympathy for his character, a privileged white guy. I felt like I could have told the author of Less the same about HIS character. 6y
BittersweetBooks I really wanted to love this book but it was just okay for me 😔 (edited) 6y
CarolynM I'm sorry it didn't work for you but life is too short to keep reading if you're not getting anything out of it.🙂 6y
Kalalalatja I hate bailing, but sometimes that‘s just what you have to do! 6y
Cathythoughts It‘s on my shelf & I feel less & less like reading it. 6y
Mdargusch Oh wow! I didn‘t realize so many of you felt the same way! I think I laughed out loud once. @TrishB @saresmoore @JamieArc @BittersweetBooks 6y
Mdargusch I had seen some mixed reviews but the cover called to me. 🤦🏼♀️ @ephemeralwaltz @MrsMalaprop @emilyhaldi @Cathythoughts 6y
Mdargusch I wish I didn‘t feel so bad about bailing but I have so many books to get to that I probably should do it more often. Ugh - the guilt. 🙃 @CarolynM @Kalalalatja 6y
ephemeralwaltz @Mdargusch yeah we actually should bail more often. But it's so hard to! It's something I still have to come to terms with in my reading life. @CarolynM @Kalalalatja 6y
CarolynM @ephemeralwaltz I'm getting better at it. I think it comes with realising that even if I live to be 100 I will not have time to read all the books I'd like to read.🙂 6y
LauraBeth I think I loved this one because it was the right book at the right time for me. I can definitely see that it‘s not for everyone. Don‘t feel bad about bailing - lots of books to read - don‘t bother with something that is missing the mark with you 😀 6y
Reviewsbylola Skipping this one I think! 6y
