This weeks featured blog is Read, Breathe, Relax.
Q. Let's step away from besties...What is the worst book that you've ever read and actually finished?
A: I am not sure of the worst book I have read but The Magicians by Lev Grossman is certainly in the list of the not so great books. I read this book because it was supposed to be a grownup Harry Potter and it was not. I just could not get into this book.
What's the worst book that you've ever read?
Hopping by to return the visit. I already follow. :-) I haven't read any Grossman...but the name alone sets off some alarms!
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of this book but to be honest, the cover looks really boring! Sorry you didn't enjoy this one!

I've never heard of this book, and now I know to avoid it.

Don't know this one. Why am I not surprised that most of the books I've seen on FF I've never heard of. Guess bad books don't get around much. Makes sense.

Hi & Happy Friday!

That's too bad! But HP is hard to follow :) I'm a new follower. My Friday Follow is up at Coffee Table Reviews
ReplyDeleteI can see why you'd be attracted to the book. I would've picked it up if it were a grown-up Harry Potter. Too bad it didn't turn out.

Hi!
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of this book before, but I would've picked it up if it was advertised as a grown up version of Harry Potter. False advertisement is always annoying.
Have a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteI usually don't finish the books I don't like, but I do have a few I've tried to force read through.

Hopping through. So sad you didn't like The Magicians. I've wanted to read it for a long time.

The cover is awful...maybe it tried to look too grown up.
ReplyDeleteHi! Just hopping through!!!
ReplyDeleteI dislike it when publishers try to make a book sound like something like. Like a "grown up harry potter". It never lives up to that!
Anyways. I'm a new follower. Hope to see you around!
