I think because of the hype monster I put off reading this book until it was required by my YA Lit class. Then I fully expected myself to not like this book because it had a raved-about status. Then I feel in love with it while reading. It happens. Bree’s last blog post..I Want to Read YA Book List

I tried reading this book recently and I just couldn't get past Death's little announcements. I found them very irritating, so I returned the book to the library. Maybe another day.. Michelle’s last blog post..Elliot and Joshua

I have this one on my shelf but have resisted reading it because of what you dub "the hype monster" (love that term, by the way.) I'm going to get to it sometime soon, hopefully! I'm encouraged that you enjoyed it, even with all the hype. S. Krishna’s last blog post..Hello Goodbye – Emily Chenoweth

I read this book for my book club right when I started my book club and I didn't know of any of the hype. I really enjoyed it, it was different. Natasha @ Maw Books’s last blog post..The Secret Keeper by Paul Harris

I totally loved this book and I read it before the hype so I wasn't set up one way or another on preconceived notions....I recommend it a lot to my more mature 8th graders and we've had some interesting talks about it. Staci’s last blog post..Review: The Chosen One and Giveaway

I resisted reading this because of the hype monster, but I was so happy that I picked it up (on my niece's recommendation). Well worth the read. Beth F’s last blog post..A Look at Mount TBR

Glad you enjoyed it. I absolutely loved it! It took about 20 pages for me to get into the story, but then I couldn't put it down. Anna’s last blog post..Giveaway: THE GIRL WHO STOPPED SWIMMING by Joshilyn Jackson

It's hard to believe I still haven't read this! I think I have owned it since it came out. I keep starting it, but so far I haven't enjoyed it as much as others... One day I will sit down and read it until the end, though! I am planning for the summer. Kailana’s last blog post..A Distant Soil - Volume 1 - The Gathering by Colleen Doran

I bought this back in February, and it’s definitely on my shelf… haha. It looks great, and I’ve only heard great things. I can’t wait to read it.

I’m glad you liked it!
