Unpopular opinion - overrated books
Hi ladies,
Not to ruin any books, but I'm curious what book(s) you've heard rave reviews about that turned out to be just OK or really not that good? Two that come to mind for me are "The Giver" and "Gone Girl" No hard feelings if anyone else really loved whatever books get listed.

Jennie Writes Words ~~~ We Still Read ~~~ Presidential Challenge
Also, Breaking Dawn.
Also, Allegiant.
All of these are HUGE bestsellers.... inexplicably.
~ E ~ 7/2010
~ A ~ 3/2014
The Glass House.
Room
The Outsiders
The Grisha series (in fairness, I only read the first 2)
If I Stay (but I loved the second book)
Sugar & Spice
Yep, Outlander. Read the first two to fully form my opinion and I just don't get the love.
The Husband's Secret. I have liked her other books but this one didn't live up to the hype.
The Goldfinch.
Gone Girl.
The Raven Cycle series. Enjoyable but not fantastic IMO.
Allegiant and Mockingjay were not strong endings to otherwise great series but I don't think that is unpopular.
I'm probably permanently getting kicked off the board now after these confessions.
Follow my SK blog as I reread the entire SK library (again!):
