ReplyDeleteI DNF'd the first Game of Thrones book. What was it about the sequel that made you stop reading?
Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you.
I DNFed The Belles and I also struggled with The Fandom.

I saw Norse Mythology on another list too. I atruggle with gaiman sometimes, as popular as he is...
ReplyDeleteA Clash of Kings I liked, but I can see where some wouldn't. So long, so much death, lol...
Seeing The Belles on a lot of lists is making me super nervous to start it! But, I can see why some of these have been a struggle for you. A lot of people seem to have issues from time to time with Neil Gaiman's prose and while I personally adore it, I can see why it's not for everyone. Great list.
ReplyDeleteI have The Belles on my TBR stack... but I keep bumping it further down. Thanks for the heads up! :) Maybe I'll just give the first couple of chapters a try then donate it.
