Book~a~licious! discussion

I've split this tag up into parts since each scenario is pretty long and I don't want to have everything all unorganized and messy! This tag was originally created by ArielBisset on YouTube and I thought I'd bring it here on Goodreads! All you do is pick a book to sacrifice for the scenario below and tell us why :-)

An Over-hyped book:
Let's say you're in a bookstore, just browsing, when BAM! ZOMBIE ATTACK. An announcement comes over the PA System saying that the military has discovered that the zombies' only weakness is over-hyped books. What book that everyone else says is amazing, but you really hate do you starting throwing at the zombies, knowing that it will count as an over-hyped book and successfully wipe them out?

Awesome Question,

I would decide The Graveyard book by Neil Gaiman because it was ok, but I will definetly sacrifice it to save myself :)

That would be Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil for me. It was BLECH!

That is so interesting Rochelle. I loved it. I gave it 5 Stars and I intend to re-read it before the next one comes out in 2014. One of the things I love about reading is how 2 ppl can read the same book and have such different reactions!

I'm sorry you didn't like it at all. I think everyone in our Buddy Read gave it 4 or 5 stars.

At least now you know to stay away from Rick Yancey, lol.

I'm having mixed feelings about the 5th Wave, I don't even want to finish it. There were some parts that I liked, and some parts that I found really uninteresting.

Well, obviously Trinity, its 11 days later, lol. You need to make up your own mind but I just devoured this book. If you're not liking it, take a break and maybe come back to it later. Too much good literature to waste time making yourself read something you don't enjoy!
