So what’s everyone’s first DNF of the year? #booksky

Comments

Not the book’s fault, but I’m kinda soft DNFing Before The Coffee Gets Cold. College is in full swing for me rn and I just don’t have the time 😅

thebookvampire.bsky.social•3 days ago

That’s valid. I arguably did barely any reading for fun past freshman year of college

Felt! I’m on my fourth year, have a 5 year old, and am an English major (so most of my homework is reading 🤣). My plate is full enough this month 🤣

Too many things lmaoooo

The Trojan Women by Euripides. Ooft 🤦‍♀️

Oh noooo

I'm reading less this year compared to last, so far. I will say, I'm thankful that I've only DNF'd two books altogether. Idk if that means I'm researching well before reading, or not branching out enough? 😅🤷🏼‍♀️

Let’s go with research lol

The Ever King (but I do plan to go back to it)

thebookvampire.bsky.social•2 days ago

I have that on my TBR. I’m hoping it’s good

authoremilyrbellas.bsky.social•2 days ago

I was liking it but One Dark Window was calling to me so I put it down for now to read that duet (so glad I did)

The Shepard King Duology is incredible. A great choice on your end

Pan Tadeusz by Adam Mickiewicz. It’s a translated Polish historical fiction in epic poem format from the 1800s that a Polish friend suggested for our book club. It’s an important work given their history, but the misogyny, racism, and nationalism were too much for me considering the current times.

That’s very understandable

Water Shall Refuse Them by Lucie McKnight Hardy. I want to get back to it eventually, it’s just a slow burn and it turns out I currently don’t have the attention span for that 😅

thebookvampire.bsky.social•2 days ago

I have a ton of reads from last year I did that with that I might try again with a better attention span

Oleander Sword by Tasha Suri. I thought the first book was okay and decided to force myself to read this one, but 100 pages into it the characters were just being dumb and pissing me off every time I tried to read, so I gave up for my mental health 😂

I hate when a sequel falls flat

When crickets cry. I thought I was getting a southern gothic novel, but it was Christian fiction. Not for me

thebookvampire.bsky.social•3 days ago

I’d be pissed if I got Christian fiction when I wanted southern gothic

kryss29.bsky.social•3 days ago

I was not happy. Fortunately, it was a library book, not a purchase

Mine was I Kissed Shara Wheeler- nothing wrong with it, I just was reading too many YA books at the same time and was getting annoyed by them 😂
