This week's question:
What is a book you didn’t like that all your friends raved about or what book did you love that wasn’t popular?
~ GoodReads ~ |
What about you?

I am dying to read Will Grayson, Will Grayson! It's been on my TBR for so long and yes, like you, I feel like John Green and David Levithan TOGETHER and nothing can go wrong! It's too bad you didn't like it. I will read it anyways, but I love it when everyone loves something, but someone else doesn't. Great answer, Brandy!

Here's The Readdicts Feature & Follow Friday post.
Happy reading!
Sarika @ The Readdicts
Lots of people have enjoyed it. I just didn't love it, unfortunately. :( I know it's bound to happen, but it shocked me, being that it was JG & DL. lol
DeleteB
I hate when that happens! When you're anticipating a book and all it does is disappoint you. I've wanted to read Will Grayson, Will Grayson for the longest time, though. One day, I will give it a chance. ;)

Here's my #FF!
Agnieszka Nashi @ Nook Full of Books
I didn't hate it, but I so was expecting to love it. :( Hopefully you don't come away disappointed when you get to it.
DeleteThanks for visiting!

I did love that one! I do know a few people struggled with it though. I found the ending delightfully cheesy. :D
ReplyDeleteHere's Mine @ Pinkindle Reads & Reviews
I found the ending to be a little *too* cheesy for me. I think that's what sealed the deal on not loving it, actually. :( I still am sad I didn't enjoy it more. lol
DeleteThanks for stopping by!
Hopping through. I liked WG, WG, but I did find it depressing. I always felt bad for David's Will.
ReplyDeleteMy Hop
I did, as well.
DeleteThanks for hopping by!
Mine is definity Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater. It was my first of hers, and I *hated* it ... Which makes me feel like an awful person both because others loved it and because I love her books since (Scorpio Races is a fav and Raven Boys is awesome!). I don't know what went wrong for me! I want to reread but am afraid it will happen again ...
ReplyDeleteI think it's your hate of it that has deterred me from picking it up. Dang you! lol I will read it; I own it and I've not been disappointed yet by hers. Although I did read somewhere, Goodreads, maybe, that someone liked Wolves of Mercy Falls but didn't much care for TSR or TRB. So we'll see when I get to it. :)
DeleteI know nothing about either writers but i heard bloggers go on and on over them so it sucks when you're not impressed the way others are huh lol

I haven't read this one but based on your review I can see why you don't like it!
ReplyDeleteHopefully you'll enjoy it more than I did if you get around to reading it. :)
DeleteThanks for stopping by!
I haven't read Will Grayson. I might have to check it out, though.

ReplyDeleteI've not actually read this book, or these authors. Which books of theirs do you love?
http://littlesqueed.blogspot.com/2013/03/feature-and-follow-friday-139.html
John Green - The Fault in Our Stars, Paper Towns.
DeleteDavid Levithan - Dash & Lily's Book of Dares (co-written with Rachel Cohn) & Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist (also co-written with Rachel Cohn).
I highly recommend TFiOS & Dash & Lily to nearly anyone. :)
Thanks for stopping by!
I haven't read Will Grayson, Will Grayson yet, but I already have it on my kindle. I understand you, though, and I try to be very careful with my expectations these days. Sometimes, I think I'm so ready to love a book because of the author, and because of some reviews, and then, when it's not what I thought it would be - I'm disappointed.
ReplyDeleteI'm an old follower, here's my FF post for this week.
Enjoy your weekend.
It's so hard to not get your expectations up. For example, I have Requiem by Lauren Oliver just sitting there; I'm so scared to start it and have the ending be anti-climactic. I've not read any reviews thus far, so it's all in my mind, but still. lol
DeleteI haven't read this :)
