Just Wondering Wednesdays (2)

This is a meme created and hosted by Melissa @ Paranormally Romanced.

This week's wonder...
Melissa was wondering which book has made you want to throw it or chuck it across the room because it got such a strong emotion out of you and why? (Ex. Mad, WTF, Sad, NOOOO!)

I have had a lot of those moments and to me that makes the book even better, especially when you don't anticipate certain things to happen. I'll try to explain the moments that I had strong emotions towards a book without giving away too much. Although there were moments I wanted to throw a book on the wall I never did. Even if I ended up hating it. I just can't! lol.

Savannah Grey by Cliff McNish
I just finished this last night (totally recommend this by the way) and it left gapping. I just didn't expect that kind of ending! It was beautiful and horrible at the same time. It left me with a swirl of emotions and when I reached the last page I didn't know what to do. I was staring at the back of the book wondering what just had happened. I can't say more because I'll spoil the story but my mind was filled with this book for a while after I finished.

The Eternal Ones by Kirsten Miller
Most of the time Heaven, the main character, made me mad with her choices and way of thinking. Poor Iain.... I can't say more....

This week's question:
So I was wondering, what are the main things that make you love a book? 

Um... there are so many things that make me love a book but the first thing would be a strong story line. No matter how the characters are or how the book is written, I can't keep reading if the plot isn't good enough to keep me interested. I have come across books with strong characters and good writing that I loved, but I didn't end up loving the book because of the poor plot. That is the first thing that attracts me into reading a book.

Now, that doesn't mean that I'll  love the book 100%. I still need more so I would say I need a mixture of a good plot, strong characters and romance! Lately-I don't why I used to not having this problem before-I noticed I can't read a book if there isn't a love story involved.
