Oh no! I picked the wrong genre. You know what, in fiction, I always love the forbidden, and romance between a younger man and an older woman seems to fit that bill. Today I was reminiscent of On the Islands by Tracey Garvis Graves and all of the sudden I wanted to read something of the same theme. Then I went to Goodreads and had a look at books listed on the Older Women/ Younger Guys list and chose "The education of..." series.
The story was sweet and humorous. But my problem was the pace was way way too fast that it seemed like instant love which I do not like, what's more, they were already having sex at 13%. This plus the detailed sex scenes had me realize that I've chosen an erotic fiction. Usually I try to steer clear of erotica since most of its content was just sex, well, creative sex (just to be fair). From time to time when I just want some easy books without the need to contemplate too much, I would choose this genre. But today wasn't one of those days and I wanted a non-erotic fiction with a slow-paced development. *Tsk* whatever. I've chosen it and read it to 15% already. May as well finish it up. I have to confess, I've dropped too many books to my liking. They would have been added to my "read list", had I completed reading them all to the end. Need to practice on patience.
THOUGHT OF THE DAY: I wonder if I should move all of my old reviews from my old blog which I had used many years ago to here. It's sort of tiresome to go back and forth between the two blogs using two google accounts. -_-
