Good morning!
Here we are with this meme that i’ve been yet again spying on the topics to see which ones i’d love to jump in on 👀
Top 5 Tuesday was created by Shanah @ Bionic Book Worm, and is now being hosted by Meeghan @ Meeghan reads. Here’s the topics for July to September, if you’d be interrested.
✿ July 20th; top 5 hyped books i’m not interrested in reading
I gotta say that at first I was not gonna do this one- because as we know, I’m staying very much away from fantasy right now.. which is mostly what the blogosphere has been hyping about. So I felt like the list could go on forever 🤣
Though i’ve been enjoying snooping around on other’s list.. and I’ve been wanting to give it a go! ofcourse thoses will be mainly the first five that I could think of.. know the list is so much more longer as I don’t read fantasy nor historical.
✿ Any Cassandra Clares book
No real particular reason.. I’m just not too too keen on any of her books 🤷🏽♀️ The only of her books that I do know what it’s about has been the mortal instrument serie, as I’ve watched the movie.
✿ Becoming, Michelle Obama
I’m not too too keen on the US’s politics (though I was so happy that mr. yellow clown was out of the office.. *aherm*), and autobiographies as a whole is generally a no for me, with exceptions.
✿ Six of crows serie, Leigh Bardugo
I did found one translated in french.. and though i’ve heard so much good with the boys friendships and crows and all that… but sadly I had no desire whatsoever to read it.
✿ The night circus, Erin Morgenstern
I tried.. I really tried!! Though i’ve been putting the fault to my poor brain capacity back then, i’m not wanting to pick it back up ever either — I just remember the middle of the book and I was so LOST in all the different POV, I had no idea what in hell was going on there..
✿ The selection serie, Kiera Cass
The covers looks pretty bland to me; sure there’s some pretty dresses in there but they don’t really appeal to me..
Ofcourse I tried to pick different books than my usual Harry potter/Hunger games, as i’ve stated multiple time that I have no desire for either of them, in any form, so I wanted some change 😅
Which hyped books won’t you be reading?
Do we have books in common? Have you read any of thoses?
I won’t be reading any nonfiction book so I agree with Michelle Obama book. I tried reading Six of Crows but it just gave me a headache. Some hyped books I’m not interested in are The Hate U Give, any John Green book, Children of Blood and Bone, Red Queen and I don’t think I’ll ever finish Harry Potter books.
I love Cassandra Clare books. They even got me into reading and I remember enjoying The selection series when it was first translated into Finnish.
That’s fair! I do love reading mental health non fiction, mostly about anxiety and depression, but not autobiography type of things.. I also agree with that list. Though iknow the hate u give is an important one… doesn’t looks like something id enjoy.
Aww that’s great!! The thing that got us into a specific hobby is always cherished xx
I think for me the most hyped book I don’t think I’ll ever read is going to be The Lord of The Rings or Wheel of Time series. I don’t see why people like that much? I don’t feel drawn to them at all.
omg yes, the lord of the rings’ a big NOPE for me too.. so massive, so many books. ;-; ..and I actually never heard of the second one before rofl! but as a fantasy too, same :p
I’m not really a nonfiction person as well but I surprisingly enjoyed Becoming by Michelle Obama! If I remember most of the book is her as a child and meeting Barack (and their relationship) and the rest of it is her being a first lady. I’m not one for politics either, so I was expecting more than was actually the case (thankfully).
You’re not missing out on The Selection honestly – I only finished the first book because my friend and I turned it into a comedy sketch in DMs to get through reading it.
I don’t think I’ll get around to reading the rest of the Shadowhunters books either, but I might read Chain of Gold? I loved The Infernal Devices, but I never got around to finishing The Mortal Instruments and I hated the movie. (Show is okay so far.)
See, im the wierd one as I kinda liked the movies 😂 Maybe id get to check the serie out.
Oh well thats good that you enjoyed becoming, and that it was less political than expected!
