Well, I wouldn’t be a good book blogger if I didn’t talk about the good and the bad! I loved watching this when Cece over at Problems of a Book Nerd did this tag! Keep in mind these are my opinions but I’d love to know yours at the end of this post!
What is a popular book or series that you didn’t like?
Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn. I really hated the twist to me it just seemed kind of boring? I’ve met very few people who agree with me!
What is a popular book or series that everyone else seems to hate but you love?
So, I took a look at this list to see what people had claimed to hate. I couldn’t believe Jane Eyre was on there, I absolutely adored it! It was incredible and a wonderful novel.
What is a love triangle in a book or series where the main character ended up with the person you did not want them to end up with?
This is a difficult one, most of the time I agree with what the author says BUT I didn’t like what happened in The Hunger Games. It didn’t feel like Katniss got the ending she deserved, not did Gale, nor did Peeta.
What is a popular book genre that you hardly reach for?
Romance, it’s not something that I’m interested in and I find them too samey.
What is a popular or beloved character that you do not like?
Snape. I don’t care what he did towards the end he was a bully and a coward. Sorry, not sorry.
Who is a popular author that you can’t seem to get into?
E.L. James, I don’t get the 50 Shades thing, I had to read some for uni and before that, I wanted to know what the fuss was about. The writing was awful, truly, truly awful.
What is a popular book trope that you are tired of seeing?
People being arseholes/ terrible people and the only reason given is that they have a mental illness. Over it, add some depth.
What is a popular book or series that you have no interest in reading?
The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer. I read Meyer’s Heartless a while ago and it just wasn’t the kind of book I thought it would be and I was disappointed with the plot. It’s because of that I won’t be picking up the Lunar Chronicles.
What is a movie or TV show adaption of a book or series that you like more than the book/s?
Bridget Jones! I couldn’t stand the books when I read them, I couldn’t get on with the writing style at all but I absolutely love the films.
What unpopular opinions do you have? Are you going to do the tag? Let me know in the comments below!
I love this post! It’s so difficult to find someone who will provide the bad. I also agree with quite a few of your points. Thanks so much!

Loved this post! I think it’s good that everyone has different opinions, we can’t always agree with everything else all books would have the same type of plot and how boring would that get!! I agree with you about Snape!!

Thank so much for reading! Yeah I just couldn’t get over the bullying thing! He loved Lily and that was kinda sad but ultimately he was selfish!

No problem! I feel completely the same! He was so cruel and it’s not like it was anybody’s fault so he shouldn’t have taken it out on them!x

I’m the same with Marissa Meyer! I’ve read Heartless and it really wasn’t what I was expecting, so I’m also not going to read the Lunar Chronicles.
