TTT #30| Books That Didn’t Meet My Expectations

Published on by The Book Dutchesses8 Comments

We have been having fun with Top Ten Tuesday, so we decided we will do one every week. This bookish meme was hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, and has been going since June 2010! Since last January Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.

This week’s Top Ten Tuesday is actually Books You DNF’ed too quickly. This is something I’ve only done once in the last couple of years, so needless to say, I can’t do that topic. So Isabelle helped me think of a way to do this differently. Today I will talk about ten books that didn’t meet my expectations.

This week’s topic is Books I Disliked/Hated But Am Really Glad I Read and this is honestly IMPOSSIBLE for me haha. I don’t read that many books that I don’t like and I think there are hardly any that I’m still glad I read. Soooo what will we be doing today? I wanted to just start the list and say how far we would come but I only found 2 books…. Not so great… I decided to completely turn this around and go for 10 books I think I will rate 5 stars. So this is more like the challenge of 5 star predictions. Lets take a look at what I think those books will be. Continue reading “TTT #27| Books I Disliked/Hated But Am Really Glad I Read” →

This week’s topic is frequently used words in a certain genre/age group. I have to say this one doesn’t seem fun to me. Just sitting here thinking about it for a few minutes, I can’t really think of anything. So I have decided to look through the old topics we didn’t participate in yet and choose an old one. I have decided to do my top ten books of this year so far!

This week’s topic is a freebie and that did scare me a bit at first haha. I’m not that great with choices and like to stick to the given topics. However, I looked over the list with old topics and immediately saw one that I wanted to do! So my theme for today is: Books I Just HAD To Buy…But Are Still Sitting On My Bookshelf. Because unfortunately I have a LOT of those haha. Let’s take a look at the books I picked for today! Continue reading “TTT #23 | Freebie” →

This week’s topic is all about characters you liked that were in non-favorite or disliked books. To be honest, I don’t really like this one haha. There aren’t that many books I disliked and for me to than still like the characters is even more rare. So I went to Goodreads, sorted my books on my rating and than started to browse for ones with characters I liked. Apart from the first two, all of these are from books I gave 3 stars so I definitely didn’t hate the books, I just didn’t love the as much as other books.
