Bailedbailed

Setting aside for now. I may go back to it as I did purchase the ebook. However, age gap romance is not my favorite and the hero is not all that likable. I made it 46%. Is it worth me returning to?

I guess John Grisham isn't an author for me. I found this kind of tedious, and I wasn't invested in finding out how it ended. Moving on.... #hailthebail

Ruthiella I saw The Pelican Brief and read The Firm and that was enough for me. 3d
RamsFan1963 @Ruthiella Honestly, before this, I'd only read one John Grisham novel, Playing For Pizza. Not really into legal thrillers, but I love a good football underdog story. 3d

I read 4 chapters in 30 days because I had to force myself to read this. The discomfort isn't worth the effort. This is just not for me. Since I tried this for #withthebanned, I will say that just because it doesn't work for me doesn't mean it doesn't have value for others. Book bans are stupid.

Jadams89 Yes, bailing is always ok! I had to put it down several times myself. Thanks for giving it a try! 7d
lil1inblue @Jadams89 I am looking forward to November's read. I read All Boys Aren't Blue for Pride Month last year, so I'm reading this instead! 7d

Happy 🎃 Halloween

I am bailing on this; the mood/tone and impending sense of doom has me scrambling for air and sunshine. I did an internet search for spoilers so I could know what happens and now I am glad that I will stop reading this. #hailthebail #lifestooshort #timeforacozyhappybookplease ! #Oct2025 Book99

willaful #HailTheBail indeed! I hope your next read is delightful. 1w

Reggie Girl, I read horror and after reading this I had to take a break from horror for a while. You did the right thing. 7d
BkClubCare @Reggie - yes, thank you. New month, new focus on gratitude and abundance 7d
Sparklemn The mini-series was unbearably gruesome 6d

This had an intriguing start, then the writing became less interesting and it had a teen romance, which I just done like. Just not for me, but I know others like this one. #hailthebail

Bailing on this one early on — just cannot get into it. I think it might be the writing style? The narrator doesn‘t particularly grab me either. Just not the one for me, I guess!

Yep, that was definitely a nope. DNF this one so quick, but on a positive note, it is off my Kindle. This was my #Book3 for #Roll100.

After multiple attempts, I have to add it to the DNF pile. I need someone or something to care about. It feels harsh, but I do not care about these characters.

rebcamuse I loved it but it did take me a while to get into the characters. 2w

I bailed on this one. I have read a lot of her books, and this is the first one I have bailed on. I couldn't get into it.
