Although a good challenge is valuable you still need to feel compelled to spend the time. It is funny..reminds me of when I listen to the oldies radio stations..just because it is an oldie doesn't mean it is good. With so many books out there..not all authors are good writers.Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14819844673551315071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2992123914018880312.post-41924318701366769032011-02-27T09:10:49.435-08:002011-02-27T09:10:49.435-08:00That's an interesting though...Just because it...That's an interesting though...Just because it's a best seller, doesn't mean the buyer actually finished it! Sometimes I feel guilty when I don't like/can't finish a book, but then I remember there are too many books out there to waste time on something that is a chore to read!<br /><br />Somer @ <a href="http://bookbirdie.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">A Bird's Eye Review</a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2992123914018880312.post-57566715471090830792011-02-27T01:35:29.008-08:002011-02-27T01:35:29.008-08:00The book is a thief of your valuable reading time....The book is a thief of your valuable reading time.... lol. <br /><br />Have you read Stolen Lives (Le Prisoner) by Malika Oufkar? It's a pretty hard read (sad true story about a family imprisioned for 20years in Morocco) but it is definately worth reading. I cried.
