Comment from royowen
If I find my mind wandering, I'm either disinterested or just plain tired, but if ive found it absorbing beforehand, I'll go to bed, I've always tried to push through disinterest, but if that continues, I will put it to one side. Well done Liz, good scribing, blessings Roy

If I didn't have Amazon reviews to look forward to perhaps I wouldn't slog through! Nice to see you, as always.

Well done
Comment from Katherine M. (k-11)
Personally, I hate authors/publishers (I never know who's responsible) who try to drag you into considering the next book when you're just sighing (we won't get into the emotion) over the end of the one you're reading. I like to spend hours in the bookshop happily choosing my next book unassisted, other than by my own senses.

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
Giving a book a chance when you are not immediately keen is the action of an avid reader. My Grandma would collect her weekly library books and read them all, even if she was not really keen on them. She had no TV and loved reading. I wish I had your patience, if a book does not grab me at the beginning it is doomed to stay on the shelf! I enjoyed your thoughts here Elizabeth, love Dolly x

Liz,
I could not agree more. Some people/writers/ narrators make me crazy that way.
By the way, this just happened to remind me that I fell in love with you and your writing on first sight. Been meaning to tell you that. Silly me.

Thank you!
Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
I enjoyed your post, Liz. You expressed your thoughts and feelings well. I agree. If I'm going to read a book, I pay little attention to what others say or write. I read it and decide for myself. I do agree with the show not tell.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan
spies a woman in a throng-->thong [unless the woman was in a throng of people].

Funny--I mean throng of people!
Comment from lyenochka
You are a patient reader! Thanks for slogging through our writings here. I like how you like the writer and find fault with the narrator. I wondered at: "I find at-first-sitis." Maybe you could make this disease spelled more like the title as "at-first-sight-itis" ??

"slogging through" doesn't apply to you!

I couldn't resist the play on sitis--a common ending for diseases.

I'm honored to hear that! 💖
