From disappointing trilogies to repetitive dramas, here are 10 trending books that (I feel) fell completely flat.View Entire Post ›
I am easily influenced. When a new book or series trends on BookTok, I immediately add it to my to-be-read (TBR) shelf. However, BookTok gets it wrong far too often. Some of these titles are so overhyped that I just don't get the appeal. Because I am a completionist by nature, I hate-read a few of these all the way to the end. For others, I finished book one and decided the rest of the series wasn't worth my sanity. Let's dive into the list, and fair warning, spoilers lie ahead!
1. The Selection by Kiera Cass
2. The Spanish Love Deception by Elena Armas
3. Always and Forever, Lara Jean (To All the Boys I Loved Before #3) by Jenny Han
4. Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin
5. Magnolia Parks by Jessa Hastings
6. Consider Me by Becka Mack
7. Bridgerton (Series by Julia Quinn)
8. A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas
9. We'll Always Have Summer (The Summer I Turned Pretty #3) by Jenny Han
10. Binding 13 by Chloe Walsh
Do you agree with these takes, or is there an overhyped book you think belonged on this list? Let me know in the comments!
