Don’t you just love it when you run across something that you have always thought was a really screwy thing you do…
only someone else is doing it!
I have a nasty habit of doing that. Collecting backlists before I even read one book.
sez wendy
I love that someone else does this!
I do that too. I had 5 or 6 Feehan Carpathian books before I tried one. And I didn’t like the one I read – at all!!!
But do I learn from my mistakes?
No, I’ve done it again since then. Tina St. John comes to mind. I have 2 of hers and not read either yet.
hehe me too. I bought a bunch of Rachel Gibson’s without reading any, 2 Katherine Deauville’s, 2 Jasper Fforde’s, 4 Lynsay Sands’, 2 Kristine Grayson’s,and 4 Julie Kenner’s. So far.
It seems I’m able to stop with 2 unread titles for the most part. Except for the authors I think I’ll really like.
Who *doesn’t* do this? Seriously? Those days when I had FREEDOM to abuse my bank account, I did it as well. And a-many times, too.
I wouldn’t have thought I would do this…but I am, right now! I’ve got two Jo Goodmans, a zillion Karen Ranneys (read two, loved one, was meh about the other), and I know there are some others, too. Of course, nothing compares to the massive pile of Anne Stuart I have, which I’ve read a lot of…I’m not just a fangirl, I’m a fanWOMAN.
YAY more people! One day I am so gonna start author posts that I have glommed without reading to get rec’s and such.
oh look one more one day 😉
