Ten Books I Will Probably Never Read

This is really hard because I read pretty much anything.  I have a favorite genre of course, but I read from all genres. Here is my best try at this.

Not only does it not interest me, but the whole idea about who is writing these books and how they came about just doesn't work for me.  It makes me very reluctant to read this series.

I made the mistake of reading the first book in this series.  They have such cute titles, but unfortunately these are WAY too religious for me.

There was not a single thing I liked about the first book in this series.  There are way too many good books out there without torturing myself with this one.

I don't know if there are going to be more after this one, but I don't care. I have officially broken up with this series.

I have fond memories about the original series.  It wasn't great, but it was enjoyable.  The first one of this new series? Terrible.  I have absolutely no interest in reading this book or the 10,000 Vampire Diaries books that have come since.

Another author who's books I just can't seem to get into, or the writing style doesn't work for me.  The books themselves sound awesome, but I am always disappointed when I read them.  It's just better to stay away.

Another one where I didn't love the first book.  It was decidedly mediocre, so I will probably not continue with the series.

  1. I wasn't too impressed with the revival of the Vampire Diaries series either. It was good, but I still love the original better. Worse yet, after the first NEW three, the rest are written by a ghost writer and that just wasn't cool for me.

    Here's my Tuesday post

    Have a GREAT day!

  2. I have the same feelings about the Vampire Diaries books after LJ Smith was "fired". She's such a sweet person and she totally got screwed. She did write a real continuation of the series as fan fiction. I think it's avaiable on Amazon. I liked I Am Number Four, but haven't read past book one. Interesting list!
