cofferamblings – Story-eyed Reviews

One of the things I’ve been trying to do a lot of since starting this blog is check out other awesome book review blogs and get involved in some of the weekly challenges and prompts they use.

Today I’m going to be taking part in the Book Blogger Hop! This is currently active over at Ramblings of a Coffee Addicted Writer and bloggers all over the sphere get involved to answer the prompt, visit some of the other responses, and make new connections!

This week’s prompt comes from Elizabeth @ Silver’s Reviews (again!) and she asked: “Do you read books over 400+ pages?”

And my answer is: Absolutely. Especially because I love fantasy, there’s no way I could read all the books I want to read and still avoid the long ones. That just isn’t possible in that genre. Plus some of my favorite books are over 400 pages. I’d hate to miss out just because of a page count. I may strategically time them, depending on what other books I’m reviewing, but I definitely still read them.

What about you? Do you edit your lists depending on how long a book is?

Let me know in the comments!

One of the things I’ve been trying to do a lot of since starting this blog is check out other awesome book review blogs and get involved in some of the weekly challenges and prompts they use. There are so many options! What a fun community!

This week’s prompt was submitted by Elizabeth at Silver’s Review and she asked: “Do you continue with a book even if you aren’t liking it?”

And my answer is: Yeah, most of the time. It can be a bad habit and I’m trying to more comfortably DNF books that aren’t my cup of tea but it’s tough for me. I record and compete with myself over how many books I can read in a month or how many genres I can read in a month, etc. and not finishing a book can sometimes feel like wasting the hours I put into it. Then again, logically, you have to think that moving onto a new book that I would like would read faster and easier. Plus I’d just enjoy myself more. So this is definitely something I’m working on. Not finishing can be hard too! Haha

What about you?? Do you finish every book you read?
