Q: What is a book you didn't like that all your friends raved about or what book did you love that wasn't popular?
Ok, I'll answer both of these questions.
1. I never liked Twilight or Harry Potter. Don't get me wrong- I love vampires and magic, but these books were just too long for my taste! I also never cared for The Hunger Games. I read the first one, and then lost interest.
2. I love many books ( I'm a book blogger!) that are not popular. For instance, one of my favorite new books is entitled Game Changer by Margaret Peterson Haddix, and it's a science fiction/fantasy novel that I couldn't stop reading. I also loved A Time for Dancing. It was so touching and emotional, and I can relate to it because I am a cancer survivor, and I spend time volunteering in a hospital every summer.

I get the dislike for Twilight, but I can't say I feel the same with HP and THG. But hey, there are a variety of genres for a reason. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd it's great that books affect you in positive ways. I need to add Game Changer and A Time for Dancing to my TBR, then! :D

I never read Harry Porter but I have watched a few movies. I will never read it either and I don't get grown up going gaga over it!

PageGirlsPageofBookReviews I think things with too much hype get carried away
ReplyDeleteI wasn't able to finish The Hunger Games, but I'd like to give it another try.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed Twilight, but have no desire to read the remaining books.

ReplyDeleteI have to admit, I love Harry Potter, but I do wish the last book held it together a little more coherently. I think for me, book 3 was the best.

I did love the Harry Potter books, but I think I prefer the movies. I used to love the Twilight books, but the movies were awful and killed it for me :/
