A Good Kind of Trouble and The Breakaways...February is middle grade month, y'all! I've got a review on the way for The Breakaways, so for now I'll just say it was solidly middle of the road for me. A Good Kind of Trouble was excellent...definitely a bit frustrating reading it as an adult and being like "please communicate, it would solve so many problems!" but also...vividly remember being in similar situations when I was that age, and that's just what it's like when you're that age! It was a great read, and I really enjoyed it.

March challenges, what are we getting ourselves into? Nothing good. We've got challenge #5: Read a completed webcomic and challenge #6: Finish a book you've DNFed. Which. I mean. Webcomic. Fine. I guess I can find a webcomic to read. I don't know if it's completed or even a cohesive story, but Joel has a book that's a compilation of a pretty funny webcomic series. To my shame, I can't remember the name of it right now, but it's got birds. What more could you ask for in a webcomic? (False Knees. That's the comic.)
Finishing a book I've DNFed, on the other hand...I don't DNF books lightly, so I'm not sure if this is a "read harder" challenge or a "force yourself to read something terrible" challenge. I'm gonna take a pass on that. So. Wow. Exciting update, I guess. I'll let you know how False Knees goes.
Yeeeeeah. I feel like for people who DNF for more basic reasons that challenge would be good. But definitely not for people like you who rarely DNF.
ReplyDeleteI need to not read my comment notifications while I'm at work. Classes come in before I can respond, and then I forget to. I could see if it was like "oh, I was having a hard time paying attention, so I stopped reading it" or something, but yeah, a DNF challenge to me seems like an iffy proposition. Push me to read out of my comfort zone or outside of what I typically gravitate toward, yes, but force me to read something I hated, nah.
