And there is no way to tell whether you personally like a book or not without actually reading it. There have been plenty of books which I've read which have had rave reviews and I go back after reading the book and wonder what the other readers saw that I didn't!
Unfortunately I have to read a book all the way through, no matter how bad I find it. Sometimes I end up getting a pleasant surprise if the book really picks up and I love it when that happens. But normally it's just not enjoyable all the way through.
Samples are a good idea when you actually get a decent sample that is. I've read plenty where I've thought "Thank God I didn't buy that!"
Better luck with the next read  |

keep guessing, it's fun!
Nope, it's not the girl, the movies were very good, but I haven't started the books yet.
The Glittering Vampires I haven't heard of (unless it's a funny name for one of the popular series out there).
