Hey everyone! I was tagged by Rebecca from 26 Countless Possibilities for the Unpopular Book Opinion Tag. Thanks! (click here to check out her and Sierra’s answers!) Let’s get started, shall we?
1. A Popular Book or series that you didn’t like.
I actually don’t like to read popular books (I know, I’m odd), so most of the answers will be hard, but I’ll try.
Huh. The Fault in our Stars. I could not get past the first few pages.
2. A Popular Book or series that every one else seems to hate but you love.
I’m going to say The Giver. Now, I know a lot of people like this book, BUT MY FAMILY DOESN’T! I adore this book, but my sister and brother hated it!!
3. A Love Triangle where the main character ended up with the person you did NOT want them to end up with OR an OTP that you don’t like.
Cahills Vs. Vespers. AMY BELONGS WITH EVAN!!! *ahem* I’m still ticked over the ending of my beloved 39 Clues series.
4. A popular book Genre that you hardly reach for.
Supernatural and romance.
5. A popular or beloved character that you do not like.
Tris. (ahem. I’ve only watched the first movie and heard my sister talk about the books, but I can’t stand her!)
6. A popular author that you can’t seem to get into.
John Green. I just can’t like his books. I’ve tried, but can’t get into them.
7. A popular book trope that you’re tired of seeing. (examples “lost princess”, corrupt ruler, love triangles, etc.)
Definitely love at first sight. IT RARELY HAPPENS PEOPLE! Though there have been a few (only a few, mind you) where I’m okay with them.
8. A popular series that you have no interest in reading.
Diveregent.
9. The saying goes “The book is always better than the movie”, but what movie or T.V. show adaptation do you prefer more than the book?
Sorry guys, but I’m saying Lord of the Rings. I ADORE the movies, and truth be told, I’ve only read one LotR book (but I liked it a lot!). But yeah, I love the movie trilogy, and they’re always one of my favorite movies.
Now time for the tagging!!

I really like the Giver! Very thought provoking book. Especially love the voice of the man that reads the audio book.
And I know this person who was talking to his friend about how he though love at first sight was silly and then he stepped out of his dorm room (he was in college) and saw a girl in the hall way and right then knew he was going to marry her! Long story short they have been married for like forty years (or something like that. I can’t remember the exact number)

I know, right??? I am SO about thought-provoking books! I originally listened to it on audiobook … but that must have been ten years ago. I’ll have to try listening to it again!
That’s super cool! That actually happened with my uncle (not with my aunt, lol, but she married him). It does happen in real life!! Albeit, not that often. Love it! ❤

I’m not really fond of love at first sight occurrences either 😀
Read the first Divergent book a few years ago, but still not sure i’m gonna read the rest.

Yeah, it’s just not my thing. Very unrealistic. 😉
It seems like people are very hit-or-miss on whether they like that series or not … so I prob just won’t read them 🤷♀️

Reblogged this on readinganyone and commented:
Hey guys! So. As I’m laying here – trying to sleep (I have work in the morning) – I realized that I never posted a, well, post. Catastrophe!
So, being the incredibly brilliant person that I am, I decided to reblog a post from my original blog, Writinganyone. This is The Unpopular Opinion Book tag from November 10, 2015. I thought that it would be fun if I did an updated post of this next Friday, so we’ll see!
And without further adieu, let’s get started!! :p
