Open Book

Jessica Simpson

DID NOT FINISH

It wasn't bad, it just wasn't for me. The subject was interesting and I wish I could've kept reading but a few things just made it absolutely too grating for me to continue with, the first one being the overly conversational style of writing. I prefer memoirs that are more narrative and less feeling like someone is just sitting in front of me telling me their life story. I think that's a personal preference, based on the reviews the book is well loved. The other thing that just got to be too much for me was the religiosity. I'm not saying the book was preachy or proselytizing or anything really, it was just SO Christian, it felt too big. Of course it's the story of someone's life so it is what it is but her feelings about Christianity were just such a big part of every chapter I read that it was unengaging and unrelatable for someone who didn't grow up that way or have any connection to it. I think it's a nice book and a lot of people will like it, just not me and probably not most of my followers on here

Milkman

DID NOT FINISH

DNF at 30% I feel bad but I can't do it. It's so dense and meandering at the same time it's not interesting to me

The Kingdom of Back

It

Stephen King

DID NOT FINISH

I'm DNFing at 25% finished. I feel bad, it's not that the book isn't good, it is, it's just not engaging me enough and I don't have any strong desire to come back to it. And it's SO LONG. I have this as an ebook from my library and it's waitlisted so I'm not even gonna be able to renew it right away anyways. I may come back to it one day but for now I need a break.
