Top Ten Books I'm Not Sure I want to Read!

10. Eve Trilogy

I've had the trilogy sitting on my shelf for forever. I was obviously interested at one point. But now I could care less. The reviews seem to be pretty mixed. None of my close book friends have read it, so I don't have a someone I know pushing me in either direction. And with the massive amount of series I have on the go right now I don't really feel like adding another one to the mix. Cutting out time for it.

9. Starcrossed Trilogy

I did read the first book, Starcrossed, when it first came out. I thought it was okay. But by the time the second book came out I didn't remember much from the first book. So I decided to wait for the third book to be released than I would binge the trilogy. That didn't happen. I even pre-ordered the third book. It's another one where I kind of don't care. I remember only liking the first book so at this point do I really want to take the time to re-read that book in the hopes that I'll enjoy the second and third book more than the first? Not so much.

8. Struck

I can't remember if I bought this full price(I better not have), but whatever I own it. The premise sounds interesting and cool. But again it comes down to it being another series that I don't really want to invest in. I've also not heard anything about it. Even after I just checked Goodreads to get this picture, most of my Goodreads friends haven't read or reviewed it. So I'm up in the air about this one. Maybe one day.

7. Let the Sky Fall

I did start this when it first came out, but I set it down because I found it confusing and all over the place. I figured I'd eventually come back to it and try again. But it's been over a year and I really haven't had a second thought about it. So I think it's safe to say that this book is probably not going to be read. By me at least.

6. Uglies Trilogy

I know this is a very well loved trilogy and I did buy the box set sometime last year with all intent to read them right away. But I didn't. I know it doesn't make a difference, but this trilogy is like ten years old now and let's face it, with all the shiny new ones being released every week this one just keeps getting forgotten.

5. Kingdom Keepers 7:The Insider

Yes, this is the last book in a seven book series. So I know you're thinking just get it over with. But I really disliked the sixth book and I did read the first fifty pages or so of this one and it put me to sleep. The writing and the story has continually gone down hill as the series progressed. I don't even care how it ends.

4. Real

Oh man, this book. I don't understand the ratings, they are so so good. And that's what made me want to read it. But than my good friend, Samantha just read it and was kind enough to share with me some very distributing and baffling  scenes. I thank her for reading this book and immediately warning me to stay the hell away.

3. Jane Austen

Is this blasphemy? I feel like I'm going to be shot down now. Here's the thing, I've tried many a times to read her books with absolute zero success of surpassing the first few pages. I'm really not a classics reader, I can't get into the writing and language. I'm a modern girl. I'll continue to try Austen's works in the future since I am forever changing as a reader. But as of right now, I just can't do it.

2. A Game of Thrones

One of my good friends actually gave me GoT years and years ago in high school(this is the cover of my copy; old school). But as a lazy teenager I didn't end up picking it up. Now we're in the time of GoT with the success of the show and I still don't really care. Since you're asking, no I haven't seen the show either. The size of a book doesn't scare me(my favourite series of all time is Outlander and those are beasts), it's just a very long series to have to invest time into and I'm lazy. Whatevs...

1. Gone series

Because I'm stupid, I do own all six books in this series. At least I found them all relatively cheap. Of course I also had planned to binge the series. But now I look at it, all six books of decent size, and my eyes glaze over. Six books. Do I actually care enough to want to read this series anymore? Not really. Laziness wins out again.

How about you guys? Link up your TTT.

Happy reading!
