Q: What hyped up book do you think was worth all the talk?There are so many books that I have read because I have heard a lot of great things about them; Vampire Academy, The Mortal Instruments, The Hunger Games e.t.c. I read all these books around about the same time. I found them by typing in 'Amazing YA books'. This was when I was starting out in the book community. These series' came up repeatedly.
The first time that I read a book, which I absolutely love, because of all of the hype that was surrounding it (everyone was talking about it) was Divergent. If you have not read that series yet, you seriously should. It is amazing!

ReplyDeleteOh yes. I was hesitant about it at first because it Was SO hyped, but OMFG. It is SO good, and so worth the hype! Great call!
I hadn't heard of it when I downloaded the audiobook on Audible, and wow! I was blown away; the narrator did a fab job, so it was a wonderful experience. Great choice :)

I've owned a copy of Divergent for ages and still haven't picked it up. I plan on reading all of the books that I bought but never read soon, and Divergent is at the top of that list.

I loved Divergent... it was the first YA novel in a very long time that had a love story that stirred my emotions. It's just protocol now for YA novels to have some cheesy, contrived romance, but this one felt real to me.
