Anyways, let's get started!
#1: A Popular Book or Series You Didn't Like
THE BOOK THIEF » Okay, let me just say this book for me was so boring! I just didn't like it at all, there were a few parts in it that were kind of interesting and I did enjoy to some extent. But otherwise, I found this book was just too long and I really just didn't enjoy it. I swear to god I walked into B&N once and there was a whole shelf row of copies of The Book Thief!
TIGER'S CURSE » This is one of my favorite books ever! Sadly, many people really don't like this much as I do. i've read many reviews saying the main character is even more annoying than Bella Swan (which I found really insulting), and I was shocked. I love this book so much, I've read it several times and never has it let me down.
#3: A Love Triangle Where The Main Character Ended up With The Wrong Person or an OTP You Don't Like
JEB AND ALYSSA » The ship in this story is obvious, but I didn't like it. I shipped Alyssa and Morpheus extremely hard and I really just didn't like Jeb and Alyssa together. I found Jeb too much of a good guy or hero which I suppose that was his role in the story, but Morpheus was a lot more mysterious and dangerous. I just loved it so much more.
#4: A Popular Genre You Hardly Reach For
I hardly ever reach for Science Fiction. Science Fiction is a very popular genre but I'm really not too big on it. I'm really not into the Post Apocalyptic thing, I'm not big on aliens unless JLA wrote them too. I really prefer fantasy, I'm sure you're all aware of my love for fantasy. Every so often I do try and take a peek at this genre, though I don't prefer it.
#5: A Popular Character You Do Not Like
CHAOL WESTFALL » I'm gonna get tons of crap about this. I know. But the first time I read Throne of Glass, I really didn't understand what exactly Celaena liked about Chaol. I mean, sure he was sweet and everything but from the first time I read Throne of Glass, I always leaned toward Dorian more. Though I didn't hate Chaol!
#6: A Popular Author You Cannot Seem To Get Into
MARISSA MEYER » I read Cinder, and Scarlet and they were okay. I do think I am going to read and finish up the Lunar Chronicles, but I really just can't get into Marissa Meyer. As much as I want to...it's really hard!
#7: A Popular Trope You Are Tired of Seeing
I've seen a lot of people say they are tired of love triangles. But I'll admit it, I adore love triangle. I think they are so cute, sometimes I want to slap the main character for even thinking of being with the other guy, but otherwise I love them! I am tired of seeing the damsel in distress main character. Which really doesn't seem to be popping up much anymore, but that's what I would have to say is a trope I'm tired of seeing. I know, I don't even know if this is a trope, it's super lame whatever! But I am tired of it whenever I see it!
#8: A Popular Series You Have No Interest In Reading
MARKED » I have heard tons of things about this book. Sadly something about it just doesn't appeal to me at all. I love vampires, but I really just have no interest in reading this series.
#9: When The Book WASN'T Better Than the Movie
I really can't answer this one because I cannot think of a time when the movie was better than the book. I haven't encountered such a thing like that before! So far, only the book has been better but I've only been reading YA for about three and a half years too.
