I am curious. Whats the one YA book that you wanted to read then you didn’t like as much as you thought you were going to?

Reign of the Fallen ☹️
I havent heard of this one.
It looked amazing—lgbt fantasy! Bringing dead people back alive! Great worldbuilding!
But it was a nope from me, unfortunately.
The Darkest Minds. Might just be that the movie has come out and I’m too impatient to finish it before I go see it.
I have that one but I haven’t started it yet. I saw the movie I am not giving anything away but I like it.
I couldn’t finish this book either!
I started this morning and I love it so far! About 3-4 chapters in.
Oh I loved this one found a few bits slow so was a little longer than necessary, haven’t read book 2 yet but is in the next handful of books TBR
Divergent
I hated the last book the others I liked
Agreed!
Yes! Same with Hunger Games – first was great and went downhill from there.
Fallen in love
The Claiming of sleeping beauty, by: Ann Rice.
I enjoyed the first 3or 4 chapters, but after that it was boring, repetitive, and had no plot.??♀️
I definitely won’t continue the series.
Red Queen series
I’m struggling with the last one
@Author come back to me when you finish it ?
Damn, that doesn’t sound promising
I just really wasn’t impressed with the direction she took the series and the overall ending. You might like it however ?
I’m with you Tika. ?
the cruel prince by Holly Black
Six if crows and red queen
I’ve heard such amazing things about six of crows and for this reason haven’t started it as am worried it won’t live up to the hype
@Candice I was really disappointed by it, and the second book was a waste, in my opinion.
@Bianca oh that’s a shame I bought both books a few months back. I hate it when there is so much hype around books and they just can’t live up to it ?
I’m actually reading Furyborn by Claire Legrande. I have been waiting to read it, but I don’t like the way that it goes back and forth in time. And it starts the book with characters that aren’t even seen again until chapter 9.
I’m currently reading and something about the writing style is just really slow.
@Kyla It’s not the writing style, although it has been slow. Her prologue introduces two characters that don’t show up again until chapter 9. And the chapters alternate between two characters. A past character and a current character. For me, listening to an audiobook, it was frustrating to go back in time when the prologue is in the present.
Turtles all the way down
True it was a let down for me.
Red Queen
The host
I read one line and said nope not doing it. and I gave the book back to my brother in law.
@Kala I struggled so much reading just a page
The host was the one book I can’t get passed. First time I read it I got maybe 20 pages in. The second time I got over a 100 pages in. I just can’t finish it. Its the worst book I’ve tried to read. I sure hope someone likes the book.
The story line has so much potential but falls sooooo short:(
They both die at the end.
Fallen by Lauren Kate. First in the series. It was so slow and the main character irritated me
Caraval
Oh no. I loved them both. What didn’t you like?
The Throne of Glass series by Sarah J Mass. I don’t dislike the series or anything, I just don’t enjoy it as much as I thought I would.
I couldn’t get past the first three chapters. The main character was awful.
Just read the first book and cant wait to continue the series!
ACOTAR ended up hating it
I’m with you on this one!!
I am currently struggling to get through the first book, I just want to finish it but if i still really dislike it then I am not continuing the series..
@Naomi unfortunately I bought the first 3 books in one hit based on recommendations and found the first one a total snooze, hated most of the characters especially the main ones and it was so unnecessarily long … pages and pages about painting just not my cup of tea (even though it is right up my alley – go figure ??♀️)
@Candice ikr?? People also recommended it to me like you are gonna love it, it is amazing and I am here like only 120 pages in or so and considering it almost the most boring book i have read cuz hardly anything has happened besides the fact that I cant stand the characters… So I feel you 🙁
From Twinkle, With Love
Same
ACOTAR series and lady midnight couldn’t finish that one
Have you read The Mortal Instruments and The Infernal devices before reading Lady Midnight?
the Hazelwood and divergent x
Ink heart
Agree But I loved lnkspell the sequel!
Red Queen. I was very disappointed.
I agree as well.
Wink poppy midnight
The Lunar Chronicles.
It was alright.
Definitely over hyped…
I LOVED the lunar Chronicles!!!!
What did you not like about it???
@Denise idk, it’s been a while. I remember it being repetitive. Some of it falling flat in my opinion.
It wasn’t awful, but it just wasn’t my favorite.?
ACOTAR and Throne of Glass. Also Shatter me and Reign of the fallen. Just couldnt ?
Caraval
The selection, shatter me
I started The Selection, but I couldn’t finish it. It was my first time I didn’t finish a book.
@Jaclyn I understand ?
I loved Shatter Me but the second book in that series was not as good as the first book:/ I’m still going to read the 3rd book when it comes out.
@Denise the third book ignite me is already out and the fourth too. The third is much better than the first and the second combined.
@Vidhi
Oh I was confusing this series with another one called A Glimmer of Hope..
I loved all of the Shatter Me series!
So a glimmer of hope series is not good?
Shatter Me… the only book ive ever 1 stared
