Another Question for You???
| Wed, 03-29-2006 - 3:59am |
Along the same lines as the Question of the Week. Have you ever disliked a book so much that you actually threw it in the trash??

<I read a book and if I can't get into it by the first chapter I stop reading because I'm usually too busy to read it - I do the same with movies.
Well, "When Stella Got her Groove Back" certainly made me WANT to toss it in the trash, but since it was a library book, I controlled myself

I should probably be ashamed to say so but i actually did throw a book away a few years ago. I've never done that before but i was duped. it was the first in the "Left Behind" series. I bought it thinking it was a science fiction story and it turned out to be a preachy religious thing and it pissed me off so i tossed it so no one else would get ripped off too.
I've also been guilty of bending pages but only on my own paperbacks - never a hardcopy or a library book. If you have a kind of reverence for books and you enjoyed the story "Fahrenheit 451" by Ray Bradbury , check out "A Gift Upon the Shore" by M.K. Wren
No, it takes a lot for me to actually throw a book away, lol.

Moon, I've read 'A Gift Upon The Shore' also, a long time ago. I lived in Oregon at the time and I loved the book. Yes, it had a reverence for books and built the theme around it. Awesome book!
