What’s the ONE super-hyped book you’ll NEVER read?
Let me stress that my choice to pass on this book is not because I think it will be bad or that I simply wont like it. I'm sure I would like it just fine. In the same way that I found Delirium by Lauren Oliver, Legend by Marie Lu, and Glow by Amy Kathleen Ryan to all be books that were "just fine". I liked them, but I didn't looooooooove them.
Many of you may comment on this post saying "No, Courtney, you have to read this one! Four is amazing! At least read it for him!" To which I may say, "Okay, I'll try. Maybe some day..."
Guess what, I'm lying! I may keep it on my tbr list on goodreads and maybe, just maybe, the day may come when I get truly desperate for a book suggestion and so I break down and read it. Never say Never, right? But trust me, the likelihood of that happening is slim to none!

Wow, I don't even know how to respond to this, Bittner! You don't post for awhile and then you slam any chance for a Divergent intervention?! lol, it's okay though. I really liked the first book, but the second was just okay. I am glad I read it, but I honestly think your life will still be fairly complete and meaningful without reading Divergent. You are totally missing out on Four, but that's just less competition, right? ;)
I'm so sad. Four is great. And Divergent is way better than those books you thought were just okay. WAY better. And... this may be the thing that sways you, I hope it is, but the audio for Divergent is AMAZING. I got a speeding ticket listening to it because it got my heart racing and my foot just hit the gas as I flew through the dessert.
I read Divergent, and I thought it was just ok, just like I thought it would be, but I did love Insurgent! Haha :)
Great post! Check out my post.
Never read it! but I will say what another blogger commented, I've actually listened to books that I knew that I would never read,but I liked listening to it.

This one breaks my heart. I respect your decision, but you don't know what you're missing out on! Four is just... sigh. And it's full of action. And Veronica Roth was really nice. I think it's one of the best dystopians out there but... I get it, because I feel the same way about other books.
Adorable Blog....NEW FOLLOWER.
Love your header.
I haven't heard of your choice, but my answer is the popular one of the week. :)
Stop by if you want to see my full answer, but I am sure you can guess what book I chose. :)
