Name a book or author that you truly wanted to love but left you disappointed. (And, of course, explain why.)

Don’t forget to leave a link to your actual response (so people don’t have to go searching for it) in the comments—or if you prefer, leave your answers in the comments themselves!

    Trading Dreams at Midnight by Diane McKinney-Whetstone. I loved her previous work, but this was a chore to finish….it just didn’t come together for me in the end.

    I just noticed this quote in my blog’s header. I thought it was a profound saying; but is it saying we’re not good readers? That we should be able to find something to our liking in every book we read?

    ‘Tis the good reader that makes the good book; a good head cannot read amiss: in every book he finds passages which seem confidences or asides hidden from all else and unmistakeably meant for his ear. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

    My BTT Answer is up. I speak about two books that disappointed me this year because of how much praises people sing them.
