to be finished: books i started and abandoned

Do you ever pick up a book and start reading it, just to lose interest in favour of another story? It's not that they're bad books, it's just that something else caught your attention. Or maybe this just happens to me and I have the attention span of a 2-year-old.  In any case, I've found that there's quite a lot of books I've abandoned. Maybe I lost interest in reading for a while. Maybe...

To be honest, I just got back into reading a lot after I finished school in May, so most of these books are ones that I've flown through in the last couple of weeks, and others are from late 2013. Cheating, I know.  1. Fangirl by Rainbow...
