October Nominations: UNDER HYPED
Really want to read both and both have well under 5,000 ratings.
True Fire by Gary Meehan it's only on book depository...
I don't know if I'm allowed to do this, but I have 3 nominations. These are books from my most favorites series, and I feel they are under-hyped, but that may be because they're a little older.-The Merchant of Death (Pendragon #1) by D.J. MacHale
-The Naming (Pellinor #1) by Alison Croggon
-Daughter of the Forest (Sevenwaters Trilogy) by Juliet Marillier
Out Of Reach by Carrie Arcos is one of my personal favorites. It's a contemporary that deals with more than a teen romance. I think it's brilliant and horrifically underrated!
.I haven't read any of these but they're all on my TBR and I don't see people talk about them very often.
Dorothy Must Die has 7000 reviews, but I don't see it talked about a lot.Monument 14- It has 9000 reviews but I hardly see anyone talk about it.
In the After by Demitria Lunetta only has 4,774 ratings, it sounds quite interesting.
Books that are newer releases shouldn't be nominated, they have under 5000 rating because they just came out.
Randa why do you think they shouldn't be suggested I personally would love to read them I get your point though but maybe they wouldn't be picked up otherwise
Dangerous Girls by Abigail HaasBrutal Youth by Anthony Breznican
Dinner with a Vampire by Abigail Gibbs :)
I'm really looking forward to reading Gap by Rebecca Jessen.https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
One of my ALL TIME FAVOURITES is "Between" by Jessica Warman. It's got 5,500 ratings and I've never really heard it mentioned anywhere online, I remember I only picked it up because I saw it at Kmart and liked the cover.
The things we did for love By Natasha Farrant
Awaken by Katie Kacvinsky! https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8...This series is fantastic and doesn't get the love it deserves
Anything Jasper Fforde? Specifically Shades of Grey as it now has a bad rep purely because of fanfiction being published with a similar name. Super under hyped for such an amazing world!!
or
Sea of Shadows by Kelley Armstrong or Once Every Never by Lesley Livingston
two authors I enjoy! :)
I nominate "Under the paw confessions of a cat man" only 800 people have rated it. It's on my TBR list.

Under the Paw: Confessions of a Cat ManThis is on my TBR, plus it just seems like an interesting book! How often do you meet a single guy with a bunch of cats?? Pretty strange and interesting to me! Less than 800 people have read and rated this book.

Maybe because they just been released!?!? 5,000 people aren't going to buy, read, and rate a book in one month unless they are apart of the same cult.
Broken SoupBroken Soup by Jenny Valentine! Only 1,772 ratings and it's soooo good! Seriously, I've made it my life's mission to make Booktube read this book!
This book is amazing but not many people talk about it
Tiger's Curse or Doon is a definite for me since I already own Tiger's Curse and I want to read Doon.

No need to be rude. I honestly didn't realize two of them were new releases. I just sorted my TBR by read count and went with a few that looked the most interesting to me.
I have wanted to read Doon for ages now!!
I just bought Tiger's curse so, I'm going to be bias. I've wanted to read it for ages! Tiger's Curse! and if I had to pick another one it'd be Doom.
is my very favourite book (other than Harry Potter) and I'd love it if more people read it!It might be useful to note that The Naming by Alison Croggon (also a great book) is known as The Gift in the UK, and Australia too according to Wikipedia.
The Break-Up Artist by Philip Siegel 
The Art of Lainey by Paula StokesI read them both recently and loved them! I've heard almost no one talk about them on BookTube.
Tigers Curse by Colleen Houck or Monument 14 by Emmy Laybourne, because they are only ones I have access to
across the nightingale floor yo. this is the first book in a freaking magical realism histrical fiction series set in a land very, very much like japan (or rather it is but with different place names
My Super Sweet Sixteenth Century by Rachel Harris. It's really underhyped but also hilarious time-travelly kind of novel with great characters and awesome plot twists. :)
Either Doon or Dorothy must die seems pretty awesome1

This theme can be a little tricky to define. There was the Under-Hyped Read-a-thon held recently, and I'll borrow their idea of choosing books with under 5,000 ratings on Goodreads. -THIS ISN'T STRICT- If you have a book which you believe is under-hyped ie. more so in BookTube, but it's a little over 5,000 ratings, then feel free to nominate! This is more of a guideline :)
I will be updating this post with your suggestions as they come in.
I also have a quite note about how I’ll organise the poll this month, which you can read here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
