Snips and Snails and Puppy Dog Tales

I think this is the longest string of books I've had without enjoying one... It's been 11 DNF books now. On to the latest five, not in the order I read them.



Tiger Shifter Academy: Year One by Jayme Morse. I knew this one would be bad, but sometimes these "shifter" books are so bad that they're actually amusing. This one was just bad-bad. I got as far as four of the most beautiful men on the planet wanting the high school girl and dropped it. To be fair, the book DID warn me. From the blurb on Amazon: "Four sexy tiger shifters want to claim me as their mate." DNF 13%

Leaders of the Pack: A Werewolf Anthology I only got as far as I did into this one because I tried reading each of the stories in it. 12 stories, and I only finished one. It wasn't even good, it just wasn't as unenjoyable as the others. DNF 96%

Mulan: Before the Sword by Grace Lin. Well, time to give up on these Disney books. The first Mulan book I read was OUTSTANDING for even an adult reader, but I haven't enjoyed one since then. DNF 9%

Rider at the Gate (Nighthorse, Book 1) by C.J. Cherryh. After a string of long DNF books, I searched through my kindle for one I was sure I would like. I like this author, so I thought it would be this one, but nope. So slow... I checked the Goodread reviews and most of them said the same, so I followed the other reviewers' leads and DNFed it as well (2%).

Edgeland by Jake Halpern. I read this one before the other four in this post, so it's been a while since I dropped it. I remember it as a generic YA book, but no details beyond that. (Bad reviewer, bad.) DNF 8%
