FF #2



This week's question:

What is a deal breaker for you in a book? For example, do you abhor love triangles? Or can’t deal with bad editing?

Oh man - I have a HUGE problem with annoying female lead characters... I can't stomach the characters that constantly get under your nails and annoy you... you know - the ones you want to constantly jump through the book and smack upside the head... I've had to FORCE myself to finish a few books with characters like this recently but a lot of times, I just put the book down...


What's your deal breaker?

    I agree with the annoying female characters! My pet peeve somewhat goes along with that: cliches.

      Ooh yes, that does get to me on occasion... if it's done RIGHT, it doesn't bother me... if I'm connected enough to everything else in the story/plot/characters, I can overlook it... but when it's done the same way over and over...ugh >_<

    That was one of the deal breakers that I said too! Those characters make me want to throttle them! :) New follower, check me out at:

    Agreed! What is the point of reading a book where you hate the main character? :/

    Completely agree! The funny thing is most of those books are written by female authors - you would think they knew better!
    Thanks for stopping by and following my blog, I’ve returned the favor :)
