i second that. i actually dont like any fic with prostitution on it.
it always seems they are trying to make it ok, that it is not a big deal.

 :iagree:

I flounced this one as well....Bella prostituting herself sealed the deal for me (and with Mike?  :sign0137: ).

I also got bored as hell with it.

Amor Prohibido » by ecaniaga reviews
Set straight after Bella's change. Jasper helps Bella adjust to newborn life and feelings begin to develop. But what happens to the future, when the past collides with the present in a violent clash? Rated M for later chapters JasperxBella *Now Complete*
Twilight - Rated: M - English - Romance/Drama - Chapters: 52 - Words: 113,980 - Reviews: 1213 - Updated: 9-7-08 - Published: 6-28-08 - Bella & Jasper - Complete

I cannot believe the number of reviews this has. After i was able to get past the EXTREMELY excessive amount of !  that were in the first couple of pages, i ended up flouncing because of the terrible grammar and spelling. I mean....rap instead of wrap? I'm picturing Bella busting out with a Nicki Minaj rap and she hugs Jasper. That was the last thing i read.

I always wonder if it counts as a flounce when I get distracted and forget I'm reading something.   :bunny: :bunny:  Oooo was that a bunny??

Um yeah, stupid ADD  :banghead:

Because I have flounced a lot of stories if that is the case....

Though sometimes? If I find them again? yeah, I finish them.  Or get distracted again  :D :D :D :D

It's supposed to be funny - well making fun of stalking fans - but so far, I'm just bored.  Not my idea of humor, I guess.  And I'm on chapter 3, but I may be moving on soon.

Yeah I've wandered off of a few too, I don't think that's a flounce. A flounce is when you'd have chucked it at a wall if it were a paperback.

Okay, then I rarely flounce.  Maybe Mamasutra's stuff. 

Mostly? I just get easily bored and someone rec's something or a WIP I'm reading updates? Yeah, I'm gone.

I know that i'm def'y in the minority here but i flounced Emancipation Proclamation. It was a good fic,i just got bored with the repetitive POV's.

I started reading EP because so many people rec'ed it, but I only reached Chapter 15. I'm not sure what exactly went wrong, I think I got afraid of the length mostly. Sometimes stories don't stick with me.

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

I'm trying sooo hard to finish this fic. I've skipped a couple of chapters and I take long breaks between them, because the angst and the style of writing makes everything seem so depressing. I think it's time to say goodbye!  :D

I wanted to read this but when I was on Twitter, the author said some nasty stuff and pushed it on other people. Can't read no matter what. And before I stick my foot in my mouth, it's JustForkIt... correct?

This thread is interesting..  I almost spit my coffee out a few times with what some of you ladies wrote.  I have flounced a few fics but the one that really sticks in my head is

The Dominants Creed.  Just could not get past the first few chapters.

I read that one a long time ago. Honestly, I don't remember it I also forget that not everyone here has been reading fic the same amount of time as others. I can't even remember the author  :-[

I've tried so many times to read this one and just can't do it. First 11 chapters were great then the entire story changed and just gave me a major headache.

I think it's the "Heart of darkness" story arc that kills it. It's just so damn long winded.

I haven't read this yet. I don't know how I feel about Edward being a chef. It's like the yoga instructor. Not for me.

My most recent flounce is My Mate, My Love by BobbisMomma

When Edward see's his mate nothing matters but her. He will do anything for her and will give up anything for her.. For his life is now all about her. NO ONE better think badly about her. NO ONE better get in his way. Nothing will stop him from claiming what is his.

Got sucked in from the summary and was met with bad grammar, bad story flow and ridiculous characters. All of characters are above and beyond normal that it's laughable. I stuck with it till the end but I regret doing so.
