Hey booknerds! It’s another Top 5 Wednesday post! This is hosted by Sam over on Thoughts on Tomes where you share you top 5 for the chosen topic for that week. You can check out each weeks topic over on Goodreads.
This weeks topic is my most disappointing reads of 2018.
There’s always books that don’t live up to our expectations and I always feel so sad when they don’t. These are the books I was most disappointed by are:
1 Sky in the Deep – I know everyone seems to love this book but I just couldn’t get into it. I felt like nothing really happened in the book and I was a bit bored.
2 The Surface Breaks – I got bored reading this book and just ended up skim reading most of it
3 To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before – I actually preferred the film than the book. Especially didn’t like Kavinsky in the book
4 The Caged Queen – After reading The Last Namsara I was really looking forward to reading this but I didn’t enjoy this as much as the first book. I think it was because I didn’t find the main character as interesting.
5 Love, Hate and Other Filters – man this book made me so mad. The Muslim rep was so bad that I still get angry thinking about this book even though I read it a year ago. Seriously do not read this book if you’re looking for Muslim rep.
What books were you disappointed by in 2018?
The Tsundoku Chronicles 
I really need to start doing Top 5 Wednesday! I used to watch Sam’s all the time on Booktube.
