Book Review for Blogging for Book: Plain Wisdom = Plain boring

I recieved this book for review through Blogging for books a few months ago.  I started it, got bored and put it down. I waited, then tried again, but I just couldn't do it! I didn't blog about it for ever because I tried to give myself more time to read it to give it a fair review...but I now realize that if I don't read a whole book because it's boring to me, then my review should state just that! The book never gripped me, it was lacking what a good book should have: something to make you want to keep reading, something that makes you want to know what is going to happen next.  I just didn't get that.  I thought I would be interested in reading about the subject of an Amish woman meeting a modern woman, and I'm sure the subject is still interesting, I just hated the way it was written.  I never enjoy a book that has two whole stories,that presumably will converge into one (I don't know in this case, I never had the courage to keep on reading!), and this one has just that: the modern woman's life, then the amish one, but blahhh for me. It's hard to give a bad review because no matter what, I know how much work was put into this book, but this is how I feel about this book and I must be true to my opinion.
