Friday Blog Hop ~ Feature & Follow Friday and Book Blogger Hop
Book Blogger Hop hosted by Coffee Addicted Writer
How do you turn down a review request?
Firstly I only reply to those that seem to have made some effort towards their letter, not just a bulk mailed letter to all bloggers. So getting past this, I would then state that I'm very appreciative and honoured to be asked to review their work, which I know is literally their babies, but unfortunately at this time and I then give my reason. I reject reviews mainly for the following reasons:-
- Synopsis is not exciting me and I'm not wanting to read the book from book description
- Not within the genres I normally read and enjoy
- I'm too busy

Q. How do you handle a book you don’t like? Do you DNF or do you power through?
Prior to being a book blogger I used to power through it because I thought that I wasted all those pages I did read, so may as well read through the rest. Sometimes it takes MONTHS for me to finish said book, but alas I do finish it, but since I've become a book blogger, I definitely DNF. If I don't get into it within the first say 50 pages, I move on. I've now got a different take on things, there are just so many fantastic books out there that I'm dying to read, so why waste my time powering through one that I'm obviously not connecting with.
