Unpopular Opinions Book Tag

1.      Popular book or series that you did not enjoy: A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L’Engle
This is a middle grade book that I heard great this about but when I read it I just did not like it at all. It was boring, tedious and I had to force myself to finish it.

2.      Popular book or series that everyone seems to hate but you love: Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck
I’m not saying that everyone hates this book but I feel like this is one of those books that we were forced to read in high school and just because it was enforced we sort of wanted to rebel and got back to reading Harry Potter, do you know what I mean?

3.      A love triangle where the main character did not end up with the love interest that you wanted: The Hunger Games
*SPOILER ALERT*
Do I even have to say it? Team Gale all the way!

4.      A popular genre that you never read: Fantasy
Let’s just say that the most fantasy-ish books I have read are Harry Potter. It’s just not my genre. I’m more of a classics and historical fiction type of girl.

5.      A popular character that you do not like: Margo from Paper Towns be John Green
I cannot find words to describe how much I loathe Margo. She’s entitled and obnoxious and the main reason I didn’t love that book.

6.      A popular author that you cannot get into: E. L. James
I tried but the voices of her characters are just stupid. I don’t know how else to describe it. Every scene makes me laugh at how vapid it is instead of making me fall in love with the characters or the story.

7.      A book trope that you are tired of seeing: Dystopian novels revolving around teenagers killing themselves and saving the world.

8.      A popular book series that you have no interest in reading: the Shadow Hunters trilogy

9.      What book to T.V. or movie adaptation is actually better than the work it’s based off of: The Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum

This was one of my favorite movies growing up and it still is. I know practically every song by heart, but when reading the book I had to force myself to finish. It actually took me three tries to read it all the way through! I was expecting to love it and it was just so boring. I’m truly sad to admit this; I really really wanted to love this book.

If you want a review on any of the books listed above please leave a comment and let me know!

Happy reading,
Wednesday <3
