I added it to my post about the book. :-) <br /><br /><b>Lisa</b> - I am at least glad I tried, but it's definitely not a book for everyone.<br /><br /><b>Jenners</b> - Not to go on was a difficult decision to make given it was a tour book. I pushed on farther than I might have as I tried to decide what to do. Trish was great about it though when I asked her what I should do. She completely understood and supported my decision not to finish it.<br /><br /><b>Heather J.</b> - I am sorry too, but I am glad I at least gave it a try.<br /><br /><b>Stephanie</b> - So true! We can't all enjoy the same books.Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-2261177999785647772010-11-06T10:44:45.303-07:002010-11-06T10:44:45.303-07:00Jenclair - It's good to know I wasn't alon...<b>Jenclair</b> - It's good to know I wasn't alone. Most of the reviews I have read have been fairly positive and so the doubt began to creep in that it must be me. <br /><br /><b>Sandy</b> - I really wanted to like it--from the title to the cover and even the description, I thought I would. Oh well. I can't love everything I read.<br /><br />I'm just glad the TLC ladies were understand about my not being able to finish a tour book. I felt so guilty.<br /><br /><b>Heather</b> - I can definitely see the appeal of this book. I wish it had been for me.<br /><br /><b>Alice</b> - I hope you will enjoy it when you read it, Alice! <br /><br /><b>Jill</b> - You might like it still. It's worth a try, anyway!<br /><br /><b>Iliana</b> - It could very well be a timing issue. Some books I can tell you for sure that's what it was or wasn't. With this one, I'm not really sure which it was.<br /><br /><b>Kathy</b> - I'd love to know what you think if you do read it, Kathy!Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-15602999729404832062010-11-03T09:09:36.586-07:002010-11-03T09:09:36.586-07:00Sorry this book didn't resonate with you.

I would have pressed on and been miserable. I think you managed to give a fair review despite that.<br /><br />I could see that this book might be a little divisive.
