Hey, Review Slump. Not so nice to meet you.

I have a problem.

I have no idea what to say about a book in my review.

This has been happening often lately.

With Shadow Hills.

With Mockingbird.

With Change of Heart.

I don't know what to say, and rather than not give these books the review they deserve I call on you, lovely followers.

Please link to your review (or someone else's, I could care less) of any of these and I'll edit this post as and if they come in.

I think my review slump is over, as I have a review for Clockwork Angel raring to go.

This makes me very happy.

To you and these lovely books: Sorry for being lame.

To make up for it I'm including your daily dose of eye candy:

Just one question: Has this ever happened to anyone? Have you ever lost your review mojo?

Thanks to Alyssa @ Teens Read and Write I can give you a review of Shadow Hills! I agree completely with every point she brought up. Definitely gets the Cara Seal of Awesome. (:

I couldn't write a review to save my life a week ago and then they all came out at once. It just happens once in a while.

I'm having a review slump right now. My mind is too focused on upcoming books that its hard to focus on writing reviews for the books that I have read. I had to force myself to write a review or two the other day.

That's exactly what's happening to me.

This has happened to me. What I do is write down tid-bits about the book, and some things I thought about it, and then a week or so later I can read that and I'm able to write a good review.

This has been happening to me lately as well. In fact, I go through many slumps with blogging it seems. I think with these things you just have to given them time and they'll pass. Sorry if that sounds lame but it's all I've go haha. Also, I love me some Hunter Parrish and I approve of him as eye candy. ;)

Thanks! Also, I wish to meet the person who doesn't consider Hunter Parrish eye candy and question their sanity. (;

This just happened to me last week! I don't know if you noticed (and I sure didn't until the Hop) but I didn't do a review at all last week! I had finished what? 3 books? I didn't post a review for a single one! (bad Anne). Luckily, I'm kinda out of that phase (mostly). You just gotta wait it out and suffer through that first review, then you get back into it! I hope that makes sense....

That sucks, but I'm glad you're out of it!

Of course this happens. I have several books that I probably won't review. And I think I'm like you where it happens in slumps. Don't worry. We're all in the same boat at some time or another. Hang in there!
