Top 10 Books I’ll Probably Never Read
Top Ten Tuesdays are hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, where we make lists of our top ten books based on that week’s prompt… and then we stalk other people’s answers to add a million books to our TBR. The topics are provided ahead of time and can be found here. Links go to Goodreads or my review.
I feel like I’ve done a topic like this already, but I can’t think of it right now. There are a LOT of books I’ll probably never read, so I decided to go by some of the earliest books I added to my TBR on Goodreads. Most of these will probably never be read for a variety of reasons. Here ya go!
I read The Host and it actually wasn’t that bad! Bit user your point. I did read The Time Travelers Wife. Meh. I’m not a huge fan.
Yeah I’ve heard good things about The Host but I don’t know why, I can’t imagine picking it up!
I have always boycotted The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Then I saw it at Goodwill for $1.50 and couldn’t resist the bargain! Who knows if I’ll actually read it?! LOL! Happy reading! 🙂
Thank you!
I love that you also share when you added each book! I am the exact same way with City of Bones. It makes me happy to hear I am not alone. A lot of people think it is a weird that I don’t want to read them, but they just don’t sound that good to me.
Yeah they sound a bit weird and I think there are some polarizing opinions out there. Most people have told me not to bother with them!
I agree with a lot of these, esp Nicholas Sparks. I read Hitchhikers Guide though and it was actually pretty good! More surreal and comic than Sci-Fi (in my opinion anyhow!)
P.S. I love your blog design!
Thank you <333
I’ve heard The Host is really good too, but haven’t picked it up yet. Hitchhiker made my list today – I’m good with some sci-fi but this has a strange sense of humour too and it didn’t work for me. I ADORED Time Traveller’s Wife though, and thought the movie adaptation was really good, even if it destroyed my soul. Girl With The Dragon tattoo made my list today too. I just couldn’t. I LOVE The Mortal Instruments though, definitely one of my favourite series ever!! R x
I loved the movie for TTW!
I’ve read two of the books on your list! The Host, that I thought was good but I can understand why some people aren’t really interested in it, and…. The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo and I loved it omg! I’m kinda surprised that you don’t want to read it but yeah thinking about it makes me realize it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, lol
Haha yeah it’s just not the kind of book I find myself attracted to.
I read hitchhikers and also watched the movie. The movie is pretty entertaining so I recommend that! But I also think I will never read TMI, or ugh The Host. I had that book and tried reading it and could NOT get into it.
I will probably watch the movie!
I’m so bummed. I got way too busy and forgot to do TTT, and this is one of the topics that I loved. I’m sure I would have ticked off a lot of people with my choices, so I’m relieved that I missed it.
I haven’t finished anything by Meyer, but my sister (who loved the Twilight books) wasn’t interested in The Host either.
I will never read TMI. I bought a box set of them at one point, and started the first one, but NOPE. Not for me. I sold them (for more than I paid) to the same store later that week.
I loved The Time Traveler’s Wife! I actually wrote an academic paper on it for my Lit. Crit. class because I just couldn’t get enough of it.
Haha! Interesting, maybe I’ll have to try TTW. I’ve always been tempted to read it.
Good list. I also have no urge to read The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. I actually started it once, but couldn’t ever get into it. Saw the movie though and really enjoyed it.
I’ll probably end up seeing the movie!
Nicholas Sparks, Cassandra Clare, and Stephanie Meyer are three authors I’ll probably never read. :/
I did really love The Time Traveler’s Wife – much better than the movie!
Love your graphics, by the way. 🙂
Maybe I’ll give the Time Traveler’s Wife a try!
And thank you! <3
