Q: What hyped up book do you think was not worth all the talk?

A: Ok people are not going to like me on this one but  I was really excited to read Divergent by Veronica Roth and when I did I thought it was just OK. The story was interesting enough but the characters just fell completely flat for me. I had no interest or feelings for Tris at all. Four got to me just a bit at the end but I was just not impressed. I still need to do my review and feel when I do I will get some comments, but this book just didn't do it for me at all.

    I've seen this series a lot too. I think we shouldn't read books for the hype.

    I agree about Divergent. I'm still going to read Insurgent to see if some of my issues are addressed, and I do kind of want to see what happens next.

    I liked Divergent. I won't say I totally fell in love with it like many others are. But I did really enjoy it and plan on reading Insurgent. But I can agree to disagree with you here I suppose. :)

    Have a GREAT weekend!
