What did you hate about Abundance, just for curiosity's sake? I enjoyed it--once I got past the first "see Ma, I'm writing literary fiction" chapter.

I tried to vote, but can't figure out what I'm voting for. Am I voting to say that I also disliked the book, or that I liked it?

It looks like Barb is the one who voted that one on the list, I've never read it. Listopia on goodreads is kinda fun because other readers can vote books on and/or add their votes to previous additions.

A vote in this case would be a vote for a wall banger. Not sure if you can remove it, but try if you like.

My, this is a busy list being as it's only a few hours old :)

That was me, I'd seen all the rave reviews as well. I just could not get into it, there were too many secondary characters that it had my head spinning, and while I expected Serena to be bad and nasty it just wasn't bad and nasty in a fun way. I think it's just me, but glad it was a library book.

I've been looking at Ahab's Wife for the longest time. One of these days...

Funny about The Fools Tale, I loved it about three years ago when I was just starting to get into medievals but I'm not so sure I'd feel the same today.

My goodness you two have been busy here today :)

Pillars, I guess it's what you're looking for in a book. For many it's a page turning action adventure, but if you're looking for an accurate representative of the medieval period look elsewhere. I also found the graphic sex and violence to be way over the top.

I'd like to see what you two think of Serena, that one just didn't grab me. I don't mind a real unlikeable character but I'd sure like to know what made her that way.

So the nastiness of the protagonist ruined the book for you eh Misfit? I had the same problem with the woman in House of Sand and Fog. I had to give it two stars because I hated her even though the writing was good.

Feb 10, 2009 06:20PM

Hi Lee, I don't mind a nasty protagonist if I know what rocks her boat. In this case, I didn't know, nor was did the rest of the secondary characters interest me enough to stick with it, until when or if I found out what (if ever) I found out what made Serena the way she was.

Who knows? I was on my third or fourth week stuck at home with a busted knee and perhaps this wasn't the right book for me at the right time. Who knows, but when I look at the critical reviews at Amazon they are very much in line with my impressions of the book (as far as I got).

I voted for "The Summer Garden" by Paullina Simons - not because I couldn't finish it (I've read it a few times, being the final book in the Bronze Horseman Trilogy which is my favourite story of all time) but because of what happened in it. When you invest about 2000 pages of reading time into a story and you grow to love the characters, for one of them to do something so dispicable is VERY frustrating. I literally threw it against the wall screaming obscenities at the main character. Those who've read it will know what I'm referring to... It left me heartbroken.

i had the same problem with the host at first but then i went back to try again and it was amazing, you just really have to push through the first 30 pages or so but after that, trust me, its worth it

the time traveler's wife is also another great book that starts off confusingly but is worth it

as for the hobbit i just tried to read that and its not even that i didnt like it i just couldnt read it, i only got to like page 80, i dont really know why... i think ill try again sometimes soon
