This Week’s Theme: Books I Struggled To Get Into
(Or Put Down Because Reasons)
Initial Thoughts:
I typically power through what I read so I can gain a wider breadth of understanding for the subject matter when critiquing. This isn’t to say that DNF-ing doesn’t have merit but it’s just not for me. I tend to put books down with the intentions to pick it back up later so I’ll have to sort this list in two categories: (1) books I had a hard time reading but ended up finishing, and (2) books I put on hold but will end up finishing at a later date.
ARC August is the yearly read-a-thon where you try to tackle as many advance readers copies as possible during August. The event is hosted by Octavia and Shelly (at) Read, Sleep, Repeat.
Initial Thoughts:
Praise be that I have the opportunity of reading several highly anticipated Fall 2017 releases. There is no rhythm or rhyme as to what I will read but I do have more favourable choices in the lot.
As always here are the rules:
Any Advanced Reading Copy counts as part of this reading challenge; your backlist books count
No blog necessary to participate, but you’ll need to include some form of social media as part of your sign up
