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!

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

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

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

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

    Even the title sounds boring. Have a nice weekend!

    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!

    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. :)

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