Each week, participating blogs are asked questions to post and answer on their websites.
This week's question comes from Marce who blogs at Tea Time With Marce:
Welcome to the Paperback Princesses! Make yourself at home, take a look around our blog and let us know what you think in the comments section. We would love to hear what you have to say about our posts. We often try to comment on your comments as well so feel free to start a conversation! Since there are two of us running the show, we always have a variety of titles and event postings. Be sure to check out our own personal meme page. Check out Fantastic Fairytales, Let's Hear it for the Boys, In Case you Missed it and a few others. We try to not only focus on new YA books but also great titles from the past. Happy Hopping!
Curlypow here, I'd have to say my most recent disappointment was 'Infinite Days' by Rebecca Maizel. I have read any number of great reviews about it, but it just didn't work for me. It's always difficult writing a negative review, but the trick is to find what you did like. If you didn't like anything about it, then consider not writing the review at all.
Hopping by! I haven't read that book, yet. It's on my TBR list. Hope you have a great weekend :)
ReplyDeleteOh man! Both of those books are on my TBR shelf! But I got Sisters off the bargain rack and Days was lent to me by a friend, so at least I won't be out much $$ if I don't like them. Just hopping by to say Hi! I've got a big Christmas Giveaway going on! Please stop by if you have a chance! Let Them Read Books
ReplyDeleteI have to respectfully disagree, Curlypow. If someone doesn't like anything about a book, I want to know! It might be something I'd want to avoid.
ReplyDeleteHappy Hop, and have a great weekend!
Thanks for the input La Coccinelle. It's always difficult to write negative reviews, but if there are people out there who want to read them, we'll write them - as nicely as we can. There's a fine line between negative and nasty don't you think?
ReplyDeleteHopping through. I wasn't super thrilled with Prophecy of the Sisters or Infinite Days either.
ReplyDeleteMy Hop
Hopping through. I'm thankful that I haven't been disappointed with a hyped book, yet.
