Top Ten Popular Authors I've Never Read
Now let's get the biggest author out of the way!
1. J. K. Rowling
1. J. K. Rowling
Yes, I have not read Harry Potter. Do I want to? Eventually, yes. There's just a lot of pressure with reading it now that I don't want to right now.
I have tried Divergent and I didn't really like it... *runs from angry mob* There was a lot of violence (I knew there would be, but if I love a book enough I'm able to get past it.) in it and I wasn't loving the book enough to keep pushing through it.
Now, this is one I would like to try eventually! I have heard A LOT of good things about her books and would like to try and read them eventually! :)
4. Rick Riordan
I got the first Percy Jackson book from the library and plan on trying it! I think I might like it! :)

5. Suzanne Collins
The Hunger Games... I may try it eventually, but I don't feel like crying uncontrollably right now.

6. Jeff Kinney
I have heard good things about the Wimpy Kid books and bad things, but it has just never been high on my TBR pile.

You all (Or at least 99% of you reading this right now.) LOVE this authors trilogy, and I know you all want me to read this, and I might eventually!

I think I tried one of her books and didn't like it, and I know a lot of you like it, but I guess you all know I'm weird by now.

10. Markus Zusak
I would like to try his books, but from what I have been told, if I don't like to cry a lot, this authors books may not be ones I would like.
I know a lot of you will tell me I need to read these books! Let the peer pressure begin.
And,

Start with Marcus Zusak. He is amazing.
ReplyDeleteI have heard that! I need to try one of his books eventually! :)
DeleteI hated The Book Thief, and am completely uninterested in attempting any of Mr. Zusak's other books. It left such a bad taste in my mouth, even if it might be possible that he was way out of his usual genre and just didn't know how to write historical properly. I haven't read Rowling, Collins, or Roth either, because I stay far away from books with massive hype.

Aww, I'm sorry to read you didn't like his book. :( I always feel a little nervous to read a book that has a lot of hype, just because I'm worried it won't live up to it!
DeleteMarkus Zusak is amazing! The Book Thief was beautiful and sad, but if you're not in the mood to sob, try his other book I Am The Messenger.

Thank you! :)
DeleteWe have many alike (I got Rowling out of the way too!), but I have to say, once again, read Collins!
ReplyDeleteYay for another person who has not read Harry Potter! I'm not the only one! :)
DeleteAnd yeah... I know I need to read her books... *blushes* Eventually! :)
