TELL ME TUESDAY is a floating feature, depending on your reading style, where you tell us what you are reading now, and why, and what you will be reading in the future from your tbr pile, and why. I am oh so curious why people read what they read. So tell me!

I need to tell you that my first month's worth of ARC reading was not so great, and it looks like it is going to run straight into February.
I had a meh... a DNF... and an UGH.
This was the UGH. Remember how I was telling you to run and request this title last week on my TMT? Well don't. The last 1/3 of the book ruined the first 2/3 in the worst way. This enchanting original fairytale turned into a drugstore romance paperback. It would be like if you were reading Harry Potter and everyone decided to start making sexual innuendos, talk about virginity, and force sexual intentions on each other. Ugh, just ugh.
Now I am reading this, and on top of the eh to bleh ratings I have been seeing from bloggers I follow, stating problems with aspects that usually bother me, too, I kept thinking something was missing as I read. I finally figured it out when I started reading again during my lunch break; the author hardly uses any adjectives or adverbs, and the ones she does use are very basic. I can feel a bout of skim reading coming on. *sighs*
This will be my next ARC. Let's hope it breaks the curse!
What are you reading? Tell me!
