#falltreasures #ADNF I know many people really love this book but I just couldn‘t get into it.Oddly, or not ,I do have non fiction books about freaks in my collection.Oh well.

AmyG I could never believe that parents would do what they did….and have these kids. I could never get past that. So I was not a fan. 3y
Leftcoastzen @AmyG I can‘t remember how far I got , but remembering something like that was the tipping point 3y
Eggs Yikes 😱 3y
SamAnne Yeah, I can do disturbing with a purpose. The disturbing in the book had not purpose for me. 3y
sarahbellum This one wasn‘t for me either 👎 3y

#FallTreasures

Today‘s prompt is a book you did not finish. Here‘s 6, each a #ADNF for me. Note the thing they have in common—all are #chunksters I have a short attention span sometimes & if a book doesn‘t totally grab me or another competes, I have a hard time staying with them. 🤷🏻‍♀️📚

Some of these (the top row) I do intend to finish one day. I‘m about 2/3 through the tagged book & just need to recommit to Serial Reader & finish it up.

bibliobliss I‘m currently reading “Jonathan Strange” & “1Q84” but they are both slogging a bit for me 😐 3y
5feet.of.fury I couldn‘t even make it through the NOS4A2 tv show. 3y
DebinHawaii @bibliobliss I just have trouble getting through the slog. 😉 3y

DebinHawaii @5feet.of.fury Good to know. I haven‘t watched it as I was going to try and read the book first.😆 3y
TrishB I didn‘t finish Jonathan Strange. Loved NOS4A2 and Outlander. 3y
TiredLibrarian I tried Les Mis 3x before I gave up & figured I could just appreciate the tale in all its other forms 😅 I finished Outlander because it was a book group read, but I detested it, which I know is an #unpopularopinion 3y
Eggs Great collage-I fear chunksters too 3y

As much as I hate to admit it because I love her, I couldn‘t finish this one!!! Maybe it was bad timing 🤷‍♀️

This is one of those highly rated books and yet it was not my cup of tea. Tried reading the first book but DNF it half way. Only watched the last season on TV just to know the ending of it all 😅

Eggs It happens .... 📚📚 3y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks The last season was awful! You should try to watch it from the beginning! I‘m rewatching it 🤣 I didn‘t read it either, too many characters! 3y
SusanLee @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I know right 🤣😅 3y
