Drop by Mat Jackson

Waiting In Vain

I would be curious Why you consider these the worst.

Both of these books are way too slow for me. That's not even the half of it.
When I was reading Drop I felt like I was being taken all over the place. Had no clue to what Mat Jackson was trying to say with it's characters. And Waiting In Vain was sooooooooooo boring. I don't even know what to say about this book. Usually, if I'm bored with a book I'll hurry up and read it, so I'll get to the ending. But I just couldn't do it with this book. I had to stop reading it by the time I got to the 7th chapter.

But I'm gonna try to read these books again. Maybe, I was just in a bad mood when I started reading them and somehow missed something.

Did you read these books? If so, what did you think of them?

I have not read them, but I have a contrary streak in me that wants to read stuff that other people find bad.

Slow books can be boring, but sometimes they appeal to me.

When and if you ever read them let me know what you think.

I read "Drop" and I also found it to be a disappointment. It seemed like it would have been more exciting.

Hi Missshey,

You know I thought the same thing. But when I read it, it was a whole different story. Have you read any of his other books?

No, I haven't read any of the author's other books. Are they any good?
