Sparkle Schimmer I HAVE to finish a book, no matter how bored I am. If I don't finish it, it "haunts" me for years.


message 3: by Lin Smith (new)

Lin Smith Me too - I always hope it will get better and sometimes it does! :)


message 4: by Rhonda (new)

Rhonda Life is too short to read a book I am not enjoying. If I've bought it, I just look at it as a gambling loss and move on to another book.

Donnie McDow because james patterson, you KNOW we don't care what color the leaves are or how the sky looks, you 'stick with the story' and the first book i ever read that got me hooked on reading was 'kiss the girls' and i've read every one of your books and PLEASE write faster!!!!

David Lucero How do you find the time to write so many books? I've heard you use 'Ghost Writers' for some. Is this true?


message 34: by Kiyo (new)

Kiyo star yes indeed


message 35: by nhi (new)

nhi Hi James, I agree with you. If I am not enjoying a book. I would simply set it down and walk away. I might get back to it and see if it is anymore interesting. Though, I can never say that to your books. Maximum Ride is my favorite along with the Middle School series!

message 37: by DREADX THE NIGHT (new)

DREADX THE NIGHT SAME HERE WHEN I GET BORED WITH A BOOK I PUT IT DOWN UNTIL I WANT TO READ IT AGAIN THE ONLY SERIES THAT DOES NOT APPLIES FOR IS MAXIMUM RIDE


message 38: by [deleted user] (new)

yesssssmaximumride: reading graphic novel version: book 10!


message 39: by [deleted user] (new)

It makes sense for a movie, but BROADWAY. It’s the great white way! I certainly wish I could see a broadway show.


message 40: by Lynn (new)

Lynn I enjoy reading, and I refuse to make myself finish a book if I am not enjoying it. I obtain the majority of my books from the library so that makes my decision easier, but I will return it in a heartbeat if I am not enjoying the ride. I am happy to say that I usually enjoy books written by James Patterson. He is one of my go to authors.


message 41: by Paula (new)

Paula Day Johns I make myself finish. I am an optimist and sincerely hope the writer eventually has something to say and I give them a shot, then I determine whether or not to read them again.


message 42: by Layla (new)

Layla I am the same if I can not get into a book, I won’t read it. Iv always read like this... if I can not get past reading the first page of a book i will not read any more of the whole book,


message 43: by Benjamin (new)

Benjamin Stahl Getting up and strutting out of a Broadway play in such a manner sounds kind of douchey to me.


message 44: by J (new)

J Kromrie I agree, life is just TOO short, unless I have requested a copy of a book via Netgalley. In that case, I suffer through (yesh, one novel turned out to be a romance, uck - I still get a bit shaky and nauseous with the thought. I dont know who ever associated romance novels with mysteries, but they should be, sell, I was going to say "drawn and quartered" but that might be going a mite far.... NAH! 😘


Nathan (ON HIATUS AND  NOT ACCEPTING FRIEND REQUESTS) Same. I think everyone should do that. I don't know why we feel obligated to read something or watch something if we are bored
