Nicole over at The Book Worm Drinketh tagged me in this post, and it’s my first one of these, so bear with me if I do it wrong! 😉
A REALLY HYPED BOOK YOU’RE NOT INTERESTED IN READING
Ok, everyone get ready with their rotten fruit. I really think that Harry Potter was an amazing phenomenon. I went to book release parties, and loved every minute. BUT. I think it’s run it’s course and we should enjoy the original series and let it go at that, so I will not be reading Harry Potter and the Cursed Child or Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.
A SERIES YOU WON’T START/WON’T BE FINISHING
The Dexter Series
My sister read the books and was super into the show. I watched the show after it came to Netflix and/or Amazon. I enjoyed it for the most part. I just don’t know if I could stomach reading about what he does. I’m not sure how graphic the books are, and I’m not excited to find out.
A CLASSIC THAT YOU’RE JUST NOT INTERESTED IN
War and Peace
I don’t even have a great reason outside of: it doesn’t sound interesting and that is A LOT of pages to read through for a book that doesn’t sound appealing.
A GENRE(S) YOU NEVER READ
Hmmm… Maybe Christian/Religious books? Let me qualify. If the book is looking into various religions and the impact on the world/culture, etc; that sounds super interesting. A book that targets an audience that already deeply believes in it’s ideologies and only wishes to further its agenda with those individuals, I’m much less interested in.
A BOOK ON YOUR SHELVES YOU’LL PROBABLY NEVER ACTUALLY READ
Cloud Atlas
I have tried reading this a couple of times, but just couldn’t get into. I don’t think I’ll ever end up trying again/finishing.
I think this is the part where you can nominate other people… so, if you’re interested in participating, give it a try! Leave a link in the comments, I’d love to read your answers.

I started the Dexter series and I enjoyed it… I wasn’t a big fan of the tv show, but the books were a little different. But, I didn’t make it through all of them becauee I find that when the show starts the author changes the voice in the books to that of the show so they start to feel different. I found the same things with Kathy Reichs after Bones started even though her characters were so different, it was almost like she got confused about who was who..

I could see why A Game of Thrones won’t be finished. I was just saying the other day that it may seem like a dream come true to have your books brought to reality, but if they aren’t finished it would be hard not to let the voice of them be influenced.

Hehehe. I loved the HP series but haven’t gotten around to the ‘extras’ as yet. I probably will eventually though… at some point…

I loved HP too. I think my biggest fear is that these won’t live up to my memory of those books and that would just be crushing.
