TGIF is a weekly meme hosted by Ginger at GReads where she poses a thought-provoking question to prompt some blogger discussion!
This week's question:
Blogger Confession: What's the last book you could not finish? (or had a hard time finishing?)
Almost Moon by Alice Sebold. The really sad thing about this was that I LOVED Lovely Bones and Lucky, both by Ms. Sebold, and I was super excited to get my hands on her newest novel when it came out. I even pre-ordered it from Amazon and everything. I didn't really even read the description. I HATED it. I still have it on my shelf, for some reason, and I lost the dust jacket a long time ago. I keep thinking maybe I'll try it again, but I can't force myself to pick it up again.

This week's question:
Q. Let's step away from besties...What is the worst book that you've ever read and actually finished?
Les Miserables by Victor Hugo when I was a sophomore in high school. I thought I would be "cool" and read this super long book (because I was also in the musical at the time and I was a nerdy overachiever). I got SO ANGRY when they spent 50+ pages telling you all about this character and then he DIED....and that was at the BEGINNING of the book. I did manage to trudge through the 1000+ pages...but I ending up loving the musical way more than the book!
The "Book Blogger Hop" is a weekly bookish meme where you can get to know fellow bloggers! It's generally hosted by Jen @ Crazy for Books. Stop by and join in the fun!
