Book Sacrifice Tag

I love watching booktubers and this tag was originally from Arial Besset on YoutTube. It is essentially a bunch of situations in which you can sacrifice books you didnt enjoy. Lets get started.


1st situation: You are in a book store when....BAM...zombie apocalypse. There is an announcement over the PA system saying the military found that the zombie weakness is over-hyped book. What book that everyone else says is amazing but you hated do you throw to the zombies. 

 Now I know this book doesnt have the hype it once did, but it was over-hyped at one point. I found this book confusing and lacking character development. I got tired of flipping through Clays thoughts and Hannahs explanation. I found myself losing interest the more ernest Clay became in finding his tape. I think suicide is a very sensitive topic and I dont think this book handled it well.


2nd situation: You are coming out of the hair salon with the best hair cut/style of your life when...BOOM...downpour of rain. Which sequel do you sacrifice to protect your hair.

 Now I am just going to say that I LOVE this entire series but when ending this book I felt like this . This book could be taken out of the series completely and the series be just as good. Rose ends just where she started like NOTHING happened and it irritated me. I feel Richelle Mead was feeling pressure to finish a book and she threw this filler in to calm the raging fans.


3rd situation: You are in an English class and the professor is going on and on about this classic. He/She says that it is just amazing and revolutionized literature and you know that is complete B.S. You go so feed up with him/her that you chuck the book at his/her head. What classic do you chuck?

  I dont really remember specifics from this book besides that it was boring and pointless. I do have strong feeling of hatred toward this book.

4th situation: You are in the library when global warming explodes and the Earth is suddenly a frosty wasteland. Your dad calls you and tells you to stay there and start a fire to keep warm. Which book did you hate so much that you go and burn with no regrets. 

Now in real life I would run to every other section but YA first. I would be burning some cook books or non-fiction. That being said if I had to burn a book I have read I would choose this one. . The sisterhood was such a pivotal part of my youth and changed how I thought about things that I would burn all of these and pretend they were never written. I will stick with the original 4 and not the depressing express road to an emotional roller-coaster.
