I liked The Hunger Games, Catching Fire was decent enough, and Mockingjay.. what even happened in that book? I don't remember but I've read it at least three times trying to figure it out. I liked Divergent and Insurgent, but I stand by my claim that Allegiant was useless and could have been the epilogue of Insurgent. But even a few years ago I tried to reread them and I only liked one scene from each of them

Pickles I still enjoy Basic Girl YATM on occasion and I am…ashamed of that, but I still enjoy it. So. We're in similar (the same?) Boats lol

Yup, I no longer like things like Twilight, Divergent, or The Hunger games, but like… YA dystopian heck yeah even though everyone else left it behind after THG

oof same. I really like dystopia too! Not the Maze Runner tho, that series was…meh, but like…I've read some really cool ones?? my taste is so weird tho. Like I love love love POC and LGBTQ rep, but at the same time I can still enjoy Basic White Girl stories??? Like idk, man

I thought the Maze Runner was good enough for me to continue, but Scorch Trials was awful and I only made it a few chapters in before dnf ing it. Also I really want to enjoy historical fiction but I just don't

Personally I believe that the reason so many people dislike Mockingjay is because it was their first introduction to an unflinchingly brutal book. Reading it in middle school isn't fun because you just want everyone to get a happy ending, but coming back to it as an older teen makes you appreciate it a lot more.

Random booktuber: thank goodness we left that behind

I just do not remember a thing, even when I reread it after reading other books where not everything's okay

The Maze Runner was boring as f u c k, I liked The Scorch Trials more because Brenda added some much-needed life to the series. My friend spoiled The Death Cure for me so I didn't even bother finishing it,

My shelves are almost entirely YA with a shelf of Star Wars books and Shakespeare/classics

@Pickles group

that's not entirely bad. Most people secretly (or not secretly) enjoy smut occasionally
I have read a total of two books that might be considered "smut" and it was not a great idea. laughs in sex repulsed

Ok actually though. Some of the most beautiful covers I've seen were for my least favourite books.

I've never been a fan of audiobooks or ebooks personally, I prefer physical ones.

Agreed.

Characters dying in front of their loved one that say "I never noticed insert whatever"
Makes me cry a million times harder. 10/10. Assuming it actually makes sense with the context

group

Characters who realize what they want is completely selfish and still wanting it because humans (and fantasy races) are not perfect.

@Wry_Wyvern

part of why I've been procrastinating. telling myself I want to read Shadow and Bone first and then. Not

I read Six of Crows without having read the Grisha trilogy, and I understood the world pretty easily. I would recommend reading Shadow and Bone before Crooked Kingdom though, since some of the characters from it appear in CK.

And especially before King of Scars, or you'll be super lost.
