Today's discussion is ----

Which is worse?

Finding a book you love and then hating everything else you try by that author, or

Reading a completely disappointing book by an author that you love?


This is not easy.I can only comment on one of the questions --- The only book I can remember to fall into this category(ie, an author that you love) is 'Instances of the Number 3' by Salley Vickers. I had read her two previous novels; 'Miss Garnet's Angel' and 'Mr Golightly's Holiday' and thoroughly enjoyed them.

'Instances of the Number 3' was one of those books I couldn't get into to, I perservered for half the book but then recognised defeat.

Can't say this has every happened to me...oh wait, it did for me with Stephen King. Many, many years ago, so much that I have not read him again, and probably never will.

I agree with you Zetor. I think it's very disappointing when you set your expectations high.

Hopefully the next one will be better.

I enjoyed 'Miss Garnet's Angel' and 'Mr Golightly's Holiday' very much, liked 'Instances of the Number 3' less and struggled with 'The Other Side of You'.
