I've been in such a reading slump lately. These recent DNFs may have something to do with it:
The Eye of the World: I have heard a lot about this series, so I figured I would give it a try. But I think that this type of book just isn't my style. There were too many characters to keep track of. And it was so slow. I 'll just admit defeat.
The No End House: This isn't what I was expecting. I thought it would be more of like an escape room, but it wasn't. It was definitely scarier than that. However, i really didn't like either of the main characters so the horror aspect didn't save the book. I found I didn't care what happened to them. I read a spoiler for the end and I'm glad I didn't waste my time.
Wicked Darlings: I do usually like YA mysteries. But I had to DNF this one early on. I found the characters annoying. It could be that I just wasn't in the mood for rich teenagers. Maybe I'll try it again some other time.
Look For Me by Moonlight: I was all in until a 30 YO looking man shows up and I had to read about a 16 YP girl fantasizing about him. Then to find out he's a vampire drinking the blood of a 16YO girl. Nope, I'm done. Besides, what 16Yo wouldn't want to live in Italy for a while? It would have been a much better adventure for her.
