1/15
Most of these books aren't really to my taste, so I don't aspire to read all of them, but I am embarrassed not to have read On Jellicoe Road and Illuminae.

I have only read a few of these. I didn't really care for any of them. Throne of Glass was not bad, but nothing I wanted to reread and certainly none of the sequels. Couldn't finish Jellicoe Road, despite all the hype about it - I much prefer her other novels. I was disappointed with Carry On - I much preferred the novel which inspired it, Fangirl.
ReplyDeleteStill, I hope you find something on this list you enjoy! :-)

Hi Sue, Throne of Glass isn't my sort of thing at all, so I wouldn't even try it til I got to the end of the actual books that I want to read- and as you can imagine that will never happen. I haven't heard of anyone not finishing On Jellicoe Road, although of course books can't be universally loved. I haven't got to reading any Rainbow Rowell, although I saw her speak in Melbourne last year, and was impressed with her wit and humour and feel that I'd enjoy her writing. I will find something there to like- I would expect to like Illuminae and Simon Vs The Homosapiens Agenda- both of which I have in the house waiting.
