Top Books I Will Probably Never Read
So these books are pretty low on my TBR, I may read them some day but for one reason or another their not my highest priority. I've also included a few series which I will probably not continue with.
So these first ones are all series that I will probably never continue reading (They're all so pretty though!). I read Of Poseidon a little while ago and wasn’t a huge fan. It was Ok, and at
the time of finishing I was keen to continue on with the rest in the series.
But as time has passed I’ve discovered so many more other books I would rather
read. Fallen and Halo both fall into similar categories. I will almost definitely not be reading the rest of both series. I really was not a fan of the either books. Plus I prefer my angels a little bit more rugged, like Raffe in
Angelfall (Yum!).
I would like to read Les Miserables at some point in my life, but the
reality of it is that the sheer volume of this book brings on anxiety. It’s
just not one that I think I’m going to be reading any time soon, if ever.
As for Room, I have seen this book multiple times and every time I see it at
a store I always pick it up and read the cover. I’m really torn because a part
of me really wants to read this, but at the same time I just don’t think I
could put myself through that emotional exhaustion.
I’ve heard mixed things about the House of Night series. I feel like the
number of books in this series is a bit too much of an investment for me. Plus
I’m kind of over the whole vampire hype, this might have been one I read in
high-school. But it’s probably not for me anymore.
I feel I have mentioned a few times that I’m a big wuss when it
comes to scary things. I respect Stehen King as a writer, but there is no way I
will be reading one of his horror novels anytime soon.
I'm neeever eeeever going to read The House of Night series. NOPE. I read the novellas and they were horrible enough for me for a lifetime of bookworm torture. >_< Fallen is on my list too. JUST NOPE.
ReplyDeleteHere's my TTT!
My sentiments exactly. I feel like both series I may have been able to get into when I was younger. But I've come to the realization that there are so many great books out there, and my TBR list is WAY too long to be bothered with mediocre reading.

HoN I read unil book ten but I just stopped because it was getting very long.
ReplyDeleteTop Ten Tuesday
Yeah, I've heard that the series is quite long and seems to just keep having more books added to it. I have trouble finishing trilogies haha, so I don't think this series would be for me.
DeleteGreat list. I liked Room and Pet Sematary, but I love intense books, so that’s not surprising. :)
ReplyDeleteAj @ Read All The Things!
I like intense books on the odd occasion, but I usually have to work myself up to them. I think those two will be on my "I'll get there some day" list.

I've had Les Miserable on my shelf forever...I really want to read it but it is just so large! :)
ReplyDeleteAlas, Les Meiserable also sits on my shelf gathering a large amount of dust. I just can't muster the ability to give it away though....I still want to read it one day, but 1463 pages is a big commitment haha
DeleteDiverse list of books this week!! Here's my TTT post for this week: http://captivatedreader.blogspot.com/2015/05/top-ten-tuesday-ten-books-i-will.html
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by:)
DeleteI'll be sure to check out your post this week!
I started the Fallen series but stopped, not really sure why.
ReplyDeleteI've heard a lot of good opinions about Stephen King books but I'm not sure I would like them :')
Interesting selection! Hope you're having a great day! Here's my TTT if you would like to check it out :-)
Thanks for stopping by :)
DeleteStephen King is one of those writers I have a morbid fascination with. His stories, I've been told are very good but like you I just don't know if I would like them....or be able to sleep after them haha.
I read Fallen and it was okay at BEST but the series goes downhill from here. I wouldn't invest the time in reading it which is a shame because I totally agree that its cover is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!

I've heard that it goes rather south. It's one of the main things that kind of put me off, plus the first one just wasn't enough to encourage me to keep going with the others.
DeleteThanks for stopping by :)
Room is exhausting, but it's well worth it.
ReplyDeleteCheck out my TTT.
It's good to know it's worth it :) I've been in two minds whether to read it for a long time. I think once I get the courage I'll probably give it a go .
DeleteI don't think I'll ever read Les Mis. I saw the movie and that was enough!
