I don't think its too negative, in fact, I think this thread is a good idea.
Like you, I'm pretty easy going. I do not tend to hate books, but I have found my self either thoroughly frustrated by or disappointed with them. I found
The Witching Hour to be both frustrating & disappointing; I did not finish it.
My Goodreads Review:
Quote:
"After months of trying to slog through this book, I finally just gave up. It wasn't going to happen. Various components of the story were interesting, but as a whole it was just too much to wade through, without there seeming to be much of a point.
I really wanted to like the Witching Hour.... it has been on my bookshelf for years, but I guess it just wasn't meant to be.
I'm actually very disappointed."

I gave the book "1" star. Those last statements came from the heart.
