Gisbelle | 25787 comments Hello everyone!

Next week weekly theme reading is supposed to be hosted by Ally. However, I could not get a hold of her. Probably she is busy or something. So I am going to be the host instead.

The theme for next week weekly theme reading is New-to-You Author. Please read at least a book written by an author that you have never read from before.

Thanks!
Good Luck & Read On!

How was it?"


Meh. maybe wrong timing, but the pacing of the story felt very slow and I felt kind of...bored. Not at all what I was expecting with that type of book!


message 23: by Gisbelle (new)

Gisbelle | 25787 comments I hate slow books. I get bored easily.
