Books I’ve Tried To Read but Can’t Get Into

So as I was looking at my bookshelf to get inspiration to blog about anything. This idea came to mind.

These are the books that I’ve tried to read but can’t. For the most part I have picked them up multiple time to try and read them and then there are some books that I haven’t read because I didn’t read the first book.

The Casual Vacancy 
- JK Rowling
Theres no denying that JK Rowling is an amazing author, and as many times I’ve tried to read the book I couldn’t get into it.


City of Bones
- Cassandra Clare
I got quite far into the book, but there was so much I felt that was wrong with the book in what I did read. I felt that it was easily confusing about whose who and who can see what and what they are aloud to see and go that when I read a little bit further on I had no idea who was who, and aloud to see and do things and who aloud where.


City of Ashes, City of Glass and City of Fallen Angels

Because I didn’t finish City of Bones, I couldn’t even begin to pick up the rest of the Mortal Instruments series. I’ve seen so many people rave about the series, and the fact that I have most of the book, and got them super cheap makes it a little easier but still sucks.

The Choice
- Nicholas Sparks 
I’ve tried and tried with this book, but I just don’t feel connected to it or the characters. I always think “I’ll come back to it” and when ever I do I just can’t do it.



At First Sight & The Best of Me
I don’t want to bash Nicholas Sparks and his book, but these two books I just couldn’t get into. It’s not that I dislike all his books, because I don’t. In fact two of his books are in my top 10 favourite books, and another I’ve changed my mind on.

Just Listen
- Sarah Dessen
Ive had this book for so long that I couldn’t even tell you when or where I got it I’ve had it so long. And I’ve gotten about half way through it a few times. But something about it makes me just stop.



The Girl on the Train
- Paula Hawkins 
As I’ve said before I’m not a massive fan of multiple people having their own chapters, and while I can understand it with this book I hate it, think it should be multiple people later on down the line near the end of the book explaining how they got there.

Lola and the Boy Next Door
- Stephanie Perkins
I kinda liked what I did read, but couldn’t get any further. It’s one of those books that I’ve read a million time before within other books and so this isn’t really unique in anyway.

Jane Eyre 
- Charlotte Bronte
I’m not a massive reader of classic books, and I tried really hard with this book and got about half way, but couldn’t carry on. Since then I’ve tried and tried and I just can’t read it.




Sense and Sensibility 
- Jane Austen
I always wanted to expand my reading and try books I never normally would read, and I tried so hard with this book.

The Coldest Girl in Coldstown 
- Holly Black
I have no reason to own this book yet I do. I’ve tried countless times to read the book but don’t even like books that are mainly vampire based because of Twilight.
