I thought I would share this because it's rather funny. At least..it made me bust out laughing at work.
This past Friday Husband was asking me how I liked The Historian, he noticed it was my current audio book. So I replied and then mentioned that I had scheduled some buddy reads for a couple of the books he has recently read and wanted me to read so he could see what I thought of them. These books being The Hunger Games and Girl With a Dragon Tattoo. I also mentioned that his current read, Fever 1793 by Laurie Halse Anderson, is the book I'll be reading in November. (he was putting a book he finished in my library and happened to see it and picked it up).
Here is his reply to that email:
Hunger games is okay. girl with tattoo is good if you are 80 years old. and this current one is trash.
Lol! There is no sugar-coating it for Husband..he'll tell you exactly what he thinks. Of course, now I'm really interested to read them myself to see what I think.
On Friday I gave him Creepers by David Morrell and he is close to finishing it. When I asked if he thought it was creepy, he said it was "ok".

Lol, this sounds like my hubby. We read a lot of the same books and his best compliment for a book it " yeah, it's pretty good." If it's one he didn't like, it's because it was "boring, not much happened".
Kaye - lol! Glad I'm not alone in this. I'm in a bit of a slump and it's making me mad that Husband is reading faster than me..yet doesn't seem to enjoy it half as much as I do.
Well, it sounds like The Hunger Games is the only one I should read! LOL
He may be a man of few words, but he does get his point across.
Bermudaonion - you and me both! lol! I'm scheduled to be reading all of those books..it will be interesting to see what I think.
Stepfordmomto2 - Very true. haha!
Love it! That's hilarious but I like how he doesn't mince words.
Anna - Makes you want to run out and read those books doesn't it? lol! Could you just imagine if he had a blog where you reviewed books? I bet it would be a sensation.
