I may need to go on the hunt for GIFs to express my disappointment, but I'm pretty sure you did a great job of that.

I'm sorry this one missed the mark for you (and essentially, wasted your time), but thanks for letting us know, so I can avoid getting lulled into that trap of 'pretty cover, interesting premise'. :)Beth Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01898921671895123053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4932292247636823526.post-41757274479990601652013-08-07T13:23:10.475-04:002013-08-07T13:23:10.475-04:00I just died laughing, like seriously died!

As in, your review, lol :) I did not like the book at all. Though I managed to finish it and give it a two star. Although I'm starting to doubt my two star. Seems too nice, cause I kind of hated the book too :\ I wanted to quit it so many times. Sigh.

I can't accept that the world is ending and nobody is trying to rescue themselves. It sounds like they're just sitting, going on with their lives, and waiting to die. I can't read that, so thanks for writing why you didn't finish it <br /><br />-P.E. @ <a href="http://thesireniccodex.blogspot.ca" rel="nofollow">The Sirenic Codex</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17045558423044874125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4932292247636823526.post-73365062816551870942013-08-07T11:57:12.035-04:002013-08-07T11:57:12.035-04:00As I mentioned on Twitter, I'm really disappoi...As I mentioned on Twitter, I'm really disappointed by all the recent negative reviews for <i>Tumble & Fall</i>. Like you, I was initially drawn in by the absolutely gorgeous cover and I loved the premise of the story taking place in the days immediately preceding what could potentially be the end of the world. However, it sounds as though this book is rather lacklustre, and I absolutely cannot accept that a girl would abandon her family in what could prove to be the final days of their lives in order to spend time with a boy she barely knows. It sounds like this isn't the right story for me and I'll definitely be removing it from my TBR list for the foreseeable future.
