Hi guys! I was tagged by the lovely Analee @ Book Snacks to do the The Unpopular Opinion Book Tag so why not answering this today. Thank you so much Analee for tagging me. So let’s start this tag 🙂 .
1. A popular book or series that you didn’t like
Is Delirium a popular book series? I keep hearing mixed things about it but I didn’t like it and I don ‘t want to read the other two books.
2. A popular book that everyone hates but you love
I know that a lot of people didn’t like this but I loved the Hush, Hush Saga. I don’t know why and probably if re-read it right now I would probably don’t like it as much but I just loved it. I also loved The Luxe series. I haven’t met anyone who has read or liked this and it’s sad because it’s pretty entertaining.
3. A love triangle where your ship did not sail
I can’t think of any right now but from what I sometimes read on social network (and regret right after) I think is going to happen in the Throne of Glass series. I don’t even know who Rowan is but it looks like no-one cares about Chaol anymore and I’m sad.
4. A popular genre that you hardly reach for
I’ve read quite different genres over the years but for some reason I never read anything Steampunk. I don’t know why I didn’t, I just think that there are other genres that I prefer to read.
5. A beloved character you didn’t like
I don’t know what to answer to this one. Probably Tris in the end of Insurgent and in Allegient. That girl got to my nerves with the situations that she put herself in.
6. A popular author you can’t get into
I’ve read one Sarah Dessen book and I didn’t like it at all. Maybe was the wrong book but I don’t know if I’m going to read anything written by the author in the following months/years.
7. A popular books series you have no interest in reading
This is an easy one and I’m going to use Analee’s answer. I have absolutely no interest in reading 50 Shades of Grey. When people started talking about it and reading it here in Portugal everyone that knows that I read a lot kept asking me when I was going to read it and by that time I actually wanted to read it but I started reading a few things online that made not to want to read the trilogy.
8. An adaptation you like better than the book
If someone had asked this to me a week ago I would have a lot of problems with answering this question but now it’s easy because I watched Me and Earl and the Dying Girl last week. I didn’t like the book that much but the movie was so much better. And don’t make me talk about the last scenes. I was a mess by the end of the movie.
So this is it. I’m not tagging anyone because this tag has been around for a long time. If you want to answer to this tag just tell me in the comments 🙂
nice one

This is one of my favorite tags to read people’s answers to! I hadn’t heard of the Luxe series, but it sounds pretty interesting. The cover is so pretty!
LikeLike
I bought it because of the cover 😛 . I only read the blurb when I was home and it looked cool because it’s like Gossip Girl but in the beginning of 20th century

you haven’t read Heir of Fire? You’ll meet Rowan soon enough, but don’t worry, Chaol is still there

You already know that I totally agree no Me and Earl and the Dying Girl 😉 but I also have to say that I didn’t like Tris in Allegiant. Then again, I didn’t like that book in general. The dual perspective was useless and well, I just didn’t like it.

We already had our productive discussion about Me and Earl and the Dying Girl 🙂 ! I didn’t like Allegiant too especially because I was spoiled which made everything even worse

Oh no! I only knew that something significant was going to happen, but you know what? The dual-perspective kind of gave it away in hindsight. Why else would you have needed it? Also, Four sounded exactly like Tris. If I didn’t know in which chapter I was, I had real difficulties keeping the voices apart …

Right? That book had potentiaal but it ended up being «meh». Probably the movies (still don’t know why they need two movies) will be better too

I think so far the movies have been really good and they changed a couple of things. I even heard rumours of them changing the ending, but I don’t know if that is true.

I still have to watch Insurgent but I also heard that when they announced the name of the last movie. The poster says “The end is never what you expect” but it’s impossible to know if this is to people who have read the books or people who haven’t.

I really liked Insurgent 🙂 it was so funny because I went with a friend and 5 minutes before the movie started she told me she’s never seen Divergent or read any of the books. I had to whisper the plot to her during the commercials.
I’m kind of looking forward to the rest of the movies. I like Miles Teller as Peter 😀

I still don’t get why she agreed to watch the movie though hahaha I would have watched something she actually knew about with her as well.

I asked a friend to go watch Divergent with me but it was the first movie so it was okay to not know what was about 😛 . Maybe she wanted to be a great friend and watch something that you wanted.

She said she just wanted to spend time with me, which was super sweet.

I actually love The Luxe series as well, actually mainly just Diana? She was pretty awesome!
I can’t get into Sarah Dessen either. I think it’s simply because contemporary isn’t my usual genre haha.

Diana was the best character in The Luxe. I think that more people should read The Luxe. The thing that I love contemporary but I didn’t like the Sarah Dessen book I’ve read. Maybe I choose the wrong book to start.

I didn’t like Delirium either! But I absolutely DESPISED Hush, Hush, haha. Sarah Dessen… I’ve tried one of her books (Saint Anything), but I couldn’t get past page 10. D: And neither do I like Tris, nor will I read FSoG! 😀 Great tag. 🙂

Hush, Hush was one of the first YA novels that I’ ve read because one of my friends had the books I think that the and the only comparation I had by that time was Twilight 😛 . I would probably not like it if I read it again.
