Guess it's one of those cases where they chose an appealing cover, but not one that fit the book! <br />Lea (YA Book Queen)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07360720431931072505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3244224993534617084.post-44422724889312835092014-03-08T17:27:55.901-05:002014-03-08T17:27:55.901-05:00I know, right?!

I read someone else's review (who finished the book) that said there wasn't a beach or summer in the book, so I am definitely perplexed. I have started to read the first 50 pages as well and if I am not invested, then I definitely move on. There are too many good books out there to get caught up in a mediocre one. Happy Friday, Jenny!

Sometimes a book just doesn't work, and I used to force myself to finish because I'd feel guilty giving up, but now I've come to accept that if a story doesn't grab me in the first 50 or 75 pages, then it's okay to move on to something else:)Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.com
