My Answer: I have a few pet peeves that really turn me off about a book.
1. Very wordy, which seems to drag out the book. Just get to the point.
2. When a character is snobby, a know it all. Also when a character is whiny. Ugh! I hate that. I'm like, "Just get over it!" while reading.
3. NO ROMANCE! I don't know about you but I like books that have that "romance factor" added in. Even a little bit does the trick.
Q: What is a deal breaker for you in a book? For example, do you abhor love triangles? Or can’t deal with bad editing?

Friday reads is a huge event that goes on every Friday where we all discuss what we are reading. From my understanding this idea originated on Twitter from @FridayReads. You use the hashtag #FridayReads to share your current read and talk with other readers/bloggers about theirs.
I decided I would participate as well on my blog. :) Here is what I am reading today:
Black City by Elizabeth Richards
Paperback / ARC
Expected publication: November 13th 2012 by G.P. Putnam's Sons BYR
Reason for reading:
My blog has a stop on the Black City book blog tour. I will be posting my review on Nov 11th via the tour. For more info click here.
I am really enjoying Black City so far. I am about half way through and loving every minute of it.
What are you reading today? I would love to know. :)
Happy Friday! Who's ready for the weekend?
