Unpopular Opinions Book Tag

I love a good tag and recently I have seen a lot of booktuber's doing the unpopular opinions book tag and I really like the sound of it so I thought I would give it a go. This tag was originally created by The Book Archer, you can check out her video here


Everything Everything by Nicola Yoon. For some reason me and this book had a hard relationship. When I first read it, I read it as an ebook and thought it was just OK I didn't think it was as amazing as everyone was saying. When I read the paperback I did up my rating and liked it a bit more but still I wasn't as keen as most people seem to be. 



SPOILER (its about Twilight, everyone has mostly read it but if you are the one person that hasn't be warned)

I have come to deal with it and realised it is the right thing for the characters and all but.. I didn't want Bella to end up with Edward, I liked Edward but I was never a massive fan, I was all for Jacob and I was sad but just had to deal with it when they didn't end up together.




I am fed up of re tellings, I don't like them. It always puts me of if I haven't read the original work the re telling is based on or if it is just a straight forward re telling what is the point. I especially don't really like fairy tale retellings.. just STOP!



Fifty Shades of Grey by EL James, you either love this book or hate it!! A lot of people love it but a lot of people hate it to the point if you mention you love it, it causes a war. My opinion is I love it, the end.


Fantasy, it just isn't a genre that I seem to be attracted to. I think maybe because it's sometimes hard to follow especially high fantasy and it's really intimating. I don't know.. I say this when I am currently reading a fantasy book but it's maybe only once in a while I will pick one up.



Vampire Diaries hands down. I didn't really like the books. The creators have really taken the show in a different way to the books and I love that.



Lauren Oliver. I don't know why really. I have tried reading two of her books and DNF both. I think it's maybe her writing I don't click with but I do want to give her a third try with Replica. They do say third times the charm.



It isn't that I don't like this character I just prefer a lot more of the characters more in the series. That character is Harry Potter. I know I am committing a crime. I get it I read all the books from his POV so I must like him which I do but he's definitely not my fave. 



Throne of Glass by Sarah J Mass. Please don't kill me! This is mostly because I don't like fantasy and it's just not something I want to try reading. I do however want to read the ACOTAR series.

So what do you think? Do you agree with any of my opinions?

  1. I hate retellings as well...I avoid fairy tales and stuff as the characters always seem to be horrible. I don't read a lot of fantasy either especially books with elves and dwarves. I tried a few books by Lauren Oliver and didn't like her either and I didn't like the Vampire Diaries books! I haven't watched the TV series yet but I plan to. Liked your answers!

    1. I did this post and then started reading a retelling lol I didn't know it was one to be honest! I don't know what it is about Lauren Oliver. You should def give vampire diaries a watch when you have time!

  2. I have an interesting relationship with the Throne of Glass books. I kinda hated the first one. I wasn't impressed by it at all. The second one was just okay but I did really like the third book. Haven't continued beyond that yet so we'll see how it goes for the other books.

    Thanks for the tag! ♥

  3. Hahha I am SOOO tired of retellings too! I never liked them a ton to begin with but.... now it seems like every other book is supposed to be a retelling of SOMETHING.A fairy tale, a play, a song, an SNL skit, who even knows. I can't. I do hate- and I mean hate- Fifty Shades, but you have every right to love it! As for Throne of Glass... ugh. I wish I hadn't started because now I am 4 VERY lengthy books in, want to know how it ends, but also would rather have dental work done than read the next one. So... it's complicated ;) Thanks for tagging me, this is fun!

    1. Retellings are just getting so annoying!! I have heard lots of people have probles with Throne of Glass but I def agree if I had read the first 4 I would need to know what happens in the end. I hope its not too bad for you lol
