Re: I started Defending Jacob last night!!!!

too many spoilers on this thread.  I'm glad I already read it twice.

@lovescats, wish I had. 

 

@pateacher, @haddon9, if the thread title doesn't say "spoilers', please use spoiler boxes.  I was looking forward to reading this and now it's been spoiled.  (No need to apologize, I know you didn't mean it and you're sorry without you having to say it.)

@LoriLori


I would still recommend reading it because it's very cleverly written.

@LoriLori

I would still recommend reading it because it's very cleverly written and for me worth reading twice.

@LoriLori . I apologize....in the future I will stay away from any book threads. I feel like I can only comment on if I either liked or didn't like it. ...  Anything else might become a spoiler...best to just not to say anything.

 

 What would be the point?

 

I do find it curious that if you just started the book why bother to read this thread to begin with?

 

I would like to add in general that one should make sure they don't ever read any reviews of a book on Amazon until they are finished if they are afraid of spoilers.  Way too much detailed  information shared there.

@haddon9,  What do you mean you find it "curious" that I "bothered" to  read the thread.  I DID IT BECAUSE IT ISN'T MARKED SPOILERS.  Duh.  I was nice about it so I don't appreciate the way you turned it around to attack me.  And just for the record I didn't say I "just started the book" -- I didn't start it yet and now I won't.

 

There are two ways to mark spoilers:  Put it in the title of the thread or use the spoiler box that QVC kindly supplies for that purpose.

 

Spoiler
It's not difficult.

 

Thank you for warning me off Amazon.  I have yet to have a book spoiled on Amazon or Goodreads.  

 

There's tons of great discussion here without spoiling anything for people who don't want to be spoiled -- but apparently you're leaving Book Forum because you don't enjoy discussing books unless you can ruin them for other people, so bye!

Re: I started Defending Jacob last night!!!!

@LoriLori Well I do find it curious that it's okay for you to "attack" me.  There were others who commented in more detail than me without using the spoiler box yet you don't mention them.  

 

All I said in my original comment of the book was that I liked it, there were some interesting twists and if I were his mother I wouldn't know how I would react...how in the world is that a "spoiler"?...so you know he has a mother....okay.

 

Don't read it if you don't want to.

 

Btw, Most reviews on Amazon are much more detailed on almost any book than what I posted.  Geesh!!.. I barely remember the book so I don't know how I spoiled anything since I forgot how it ended!

I will never forget the ending of this book!

The author keeps you thinking you are on one

"road" while you are actually speeding down a

completely different "road."
