I have an iPhone. I'm not in love with the iPhone. I like having a smartphone, but I'd rather it not be an iPhone. Live and learn. Anyway...
I've started to venture into a few apps. Pandora is a favorite. Who doesn't like free music? I don't mind a few ads every now and again. I downloaded the Kindle app. Ehh. It's an iPhone so the screen is small but it serves a purpose if I'm bored somewhere, standing in line somewhere, waiting in a doctor's office somewhere. I've downloaded a few free books from Book Bub. I'm too cheap to pay for any of them so I just get the free ones.
And, holy cow! They are bad. I should probably research more and see if these little nuggets are self-published but the truth of the matter is, I don't really care. No matter how bad they are, I seem to get sucked in! I'm suckered by the "what happens next" every single time. Once I start it I have to see how it ends. Not that any of the characters are overly interesting. The writing is so-so. But curiosity gets the better of me. Every stinkin time!
If it is so horribly written I can't make sense of it, I have no problem leaving it. But if it is even remotely interesting, if there is even a little bit of a hook...curiosity takes over. It's even worse if there is series. I will read every one just because now I really have to see how it turns out. A 3 book series? I will suffer through them all just to see how it all ends.
Pathetic, I know.
