Would you read a book just because of the hype?
That depends on the book and what it is about. If its something I'm interested in then I probably will read it which meaning asking my kindle friends if they have it so I can steal it :) Twilight, I wanted to read the books after seeing the first movie came out. I've heard the Hunger Games books are good but I haven't wanted to read them, even again I did see the movie.
I used to read ALOT of a fan fiction, now no so much anymore. I did read Fifty Shades of Gray when it was fan fiction and I'll admit I did read the first book and still didn't care for it again.
You can borrow my kindle books Jen :)
ReplyDeleteI have yet to pick up 50 Shades (probably never will) but I did try Hunger Games. Honestly I couldn't get into it so I cheated and read a full synopsis of the series. The movie was ok, but I wouldn't pick up the book after. Not a genre thing because I loved Divergent. Have a great weekend! New GFC follower.

I found out about "Twilight" on my own, while browsing Amazon one day. I read an excerpt from it on their online reader, and just KNEW I had to read the entire novel! So I bought it, and DEVOURED it! Then I ordered "New Moon", and ate it up, too. I was TOTALLY hooked!!! I had to wait an entire year for "Eclipse" to come out, but when it did, I bought it and read it right away. And I went to the midnight release party for
ReplyDelete"Breaking Dawn".
For other books, I have counted on the hype to let me know that the book was good. Still, I will NEVER read certain books.
Thanks for your answer! Happy Reading!! :)
