November DNFs
So hard to decide.
DNF- Did Not Finish. That is a very difficult thing to do for me. I sometimes set a book down for a while and then pick it back up a bit later simply because I tend to read multiple things at once. So at times, it becomes a struggle to find time to read them all.
Other times I just feel the urgent need to pick something else, I do love to follow my set TBR's but sometimes it is impossible to ignore the craving for a certain book and I just follow my hunches like that.
This month I struggled to complete my set TBR and yet I added several extra ones XD
Not sure why I keep doing that.
So in the hurry to get to the complete list and write the reviews and such but oooh ooh oooh boy, there was just one book that definitely was not for me.
There were two, but for one of them even if I did feel like putting it down since the first few chapters, I continued to push through with it until it was completed.
So by the time this second book arrived I was already fed up with pushing through a book I was not enjoying.
The poetry book picked for November was The best American Poetry 2014 edited by Terrance Hayes.
It was disappointing really.
I gave it a change read 45% of it then set it down. I spent about 3 days trying to read it and it did not go well.
Some poems were ok, but mostly I was lost. I did not get the author or what they were trying to convey to me.
They sound ok I guess and maybe in a few months I could tr another go at it or a different selection on the same series, hard to know.
At the point I stopped I might have been generous and give it a 2-star rating but then again I did not finish it so.... I will not be rating it at all.
