The Sorrows: I tried to listen to this book a couple of times. I DNF'd it at about the same place each time. I didn't like the characters. There were a couple of scenes that just made me really uncomfortable and I gave up. Other people seem to like this book, so it's probably just a me thing.
Possession: I gave up about halfway through the book. I wasn't a fan of the back and forth in timelines. I was also really bored. I ended up not caring about what really happened. I also had a hard time believing that the police investigation would be wrapped up so quickly. I honestly didn't care to find out what really happened.
The Nearness of You: this was a bonus borrow on Hoopla. I'm glad I didn't waste a borrow on it. I gave up fairly early. The hero's family was ridiculously over the top about appearance that it got annoying. I don't come from a small town, so the Thorntons being "town royalty" was lost on me. Is that really a thing still? I couldn't buy into the "wrong side of the tracks" scenario. It knew it would get old.
The Clover Girls: I definitely think this was a case of wrong book at the wrong time. I had a feeling after reading the first character's perspective that I wasn't going to like the book. I was so not in the mood for a woman who has everything whining about how unhappy she is. Really? Then do something about it. I'm tired of that narrative and gave up. I did skip to the end and my suspicion was confirmed. There as nothing new here. It's a storyline I have read before.
You Will Remember Me: I predicted the ending of this book from the minute I met the step-sister. I was really turned off by that storyline. I stopped at about 25% and peeked at the end. I was correct and was so glad I didn't finish it.
