#breakingoutofthereadingslump
blurb
AmbityScambity
The Shadow Land: A Novel | Elizabeth Kostova
post image

I decided to start this one today when I found myself growing bored with every other title I picked up (it's been one of *those* weeks), and blew through 100+ pages like it was nothing. Granted I still have nearly 400 more to go, but so far I'm completely intrigued. I've read a decent number of reviews from disappointed readers, and I'm really hoping I won't be one of them. 🤞🏻 #currentlyreading #breakingoutofthereadingslump

KellyHerself Omg I'm in the worst reading funk right now! Here's hoping we both break free! 7y
AmbityScambity @KellyHerself I'm blaming the onset of Spring weather. 😆🌷 7y
EricQiao No!!! Don't be bored with TOGIC! I'm still on the edge of my seat waiting for your feedback. 7y

Cinfhen I can't get into this book, I'm plodding along🙈 7y
AmbityScambity @Cinfhen I am definitely understanding why the storyline isn't drawing everyone in. It seems to be a fairly mellow plot thus far. But at the same time, I've got a lot of questions about what's going on and it seems to be motivating me to keep turning the pages. If you continue with it, good luck! 7y
AmbityScambity @EricQiao TOGIC is moving along quite nicely for me. 👍🏻 7y
Cinfhen Thanks, I feel guilty because it's a review copy and I feel like I need to finish and review even though I'm struggling and normally would bail. 7y
AmbityScambity @Cinfhen But that's an honest review in itself: it didn't hold my interest and I couldn't finish it. I've submitted reviews like that before and I've given a couple examples of what exactly didn't work for me so that others could see where I was coming from. Sometimes the things that don't work for me in a book work really well for someone else, which is why I like to explain. 7y
Cinfhen So true! I always try to give an honest review and some type of feedback even when it's not all glowing. Being able to say this book did not hold my interest is a good place to begin...thanks😊 (edited) 7y
