This weeks question:
What’s the ONE super-hyped book you’ll NEVER read?
My Answer:
I don't think I would never read a book just because it's super-hyped up. That's not to say I'm going to automatically like the book, or automatically hate it. I would want to read it, hyped or not, so I can read it, and then form my own opinion on it.
What about you? Leave me a link to your answer or post it in the comments! I'd love to hear your answer. =)

ReplyDeleteThat's such a nice thing to say! Now I feel bad for giving a book the evil eye ... Well, sometimes a book is just soooo hyped I at least wait till the hype seems to be over to read it - otherwise I will be disappointed for sure! And some books seem to be so stupid I , well, give them the evil eye and ignore them ... argh, you really make me feel bad about this >.<

That is how I feel about some books- I want to be able to talk about it... however, there is ONE book I will never read.
ReplyDeleteFair enough :) Though I was immediately put off by the idea and reviews for Twilight :D
ReplyDeleteTend to be pretty open to most books, but I have to say, anything on the level of fanfic is probably a "never read" for me.

I don't usually pick or avoid books based on massive hype - I'm more interested in the recommendations of friends I trust :) I'm a new follower here, nice to meet you!

It looks like we all have the same general idea :) The book I picked is third in a series, and its not because of the hype that I won't read it.

I sometimes get sucked in to the 'Hype'.
