Which of these 24 popular books are ACTUALLY worth your time 📚

Published 2024-04-16
Hi book besties

I recently came to the conclusion that I've read a decent amount of popular booktok books and I decided it would be fun to let you know which of them are worth it and which are not. Disclaimer: these are just my opinions and books are subjective! Nothing against the authors who wrote the books I didn't enjoy.

Let me know if you've read any of these and if you enjoyed them or not!

Happy reading
Lots of love
Sarah

    If you're in the mood for really good romance books. I highly recommend Abby Jimenez! The Part Of Your World series is soooooo lovely. They are interconnected stand alones, "Yours Truly" and "Just For The Summer" are two of my favourite romance books of all time. The characters are so <3
  • @talia1036
    i'm OBSESSED with your content! keep thriving, I love your energy and your voice is so soothing ♡
  • @fwkdyb
    It seems like we have starkly different tastes 😭
  • @poppycalliope
    Added more books to my tbr ✨️ I trust your opinion on books so now I know which ones to check out and which ones to avoid 🙈 this was very helpful Sarah ❤
  • @user-td3tp1by5d
    I absolutely LOVE Powerless,it's my favorite book ever. It was very lovely to read and Lauren Roberts writing wasn't hard to understand which i love. I have the same taste in books as you so i will definitely take your book advice,love you! x
  • @Mimlou
    Yes! There’s reason the ACOTAR series is so popular! The author is really good at foreshadowing, I agree!! Now I just need to push through her TOG series. Just started Queen of Shadows and now excited to jump right into now that you mentioned you love it. Guess that’s my sign❤
  • @starlasell5698
    ❤📚 Loved the video! I read Circe and loved it! I need to get Song of Achilles. Thank you for reviewing. My least favorite things in books are "spice" and overuse of "f" bomb. I'll pass on Fourth Wing now, and read something I'll love more (hopefully). 😊 oh gosh...got Good Girls Guide to Muder Trilogy for my birthday, April 3rd!
  • @Gyuphoriaaaa
    The most annoying thing about Spanish love deception was the amount of times she said “his blue eyes” “blue gaze” “ocean eyes” like damn i get it his eyes are blue😭 but i was looking for something very basic so i just went for it
  • I agree with pretty much all your thoughts on the ones I’ve read, haha we have such similar taste!! Loved ACOTAR, AGGGTM, SoC, Addie LaRue, TJR in general, Divine Rivals, and also did really enjoy It Ends With Us and Verity even though I’m not a big Colleen Hoover fan. Did not love The Atlas Six either but I did love Fourth Wing! And lots here that I want to read, except The Spanish Love Deception, Icebreaker, and Ugly Love 😂

    4:12 bro, i love that you said that, i was waiting for anyone to point it out. 😂
  • @talia1036
    I completely agree with you on Powerless, i really enjoyed the banter but couldn't really get into the first few pages. the dual povs made it difficult for me because they felt repetitive. but it's a great romantasy nonetheless. but i wouldn’t rate it 5 stars unfortunately 😅
  • @angie-bd6vw
    I’ll never shut up about agggtm and six of crows. They were so good 😭 also I’m reading two really hyped up books and I don’t think they are for me lol (if we were villains and the midnight library)
  • @kajalparmar2008
    You know what? Im gonna add all the books you told are worth the time, cuz i just TOTALLY love your reviews and agree with them.
  • @teeresagai
    I’ve added Seven Year Slip Evelyn Hugo Divine Rivals and Magnolia Parks series to my TBR. I DNF the ACOTAR series just couldn’t get into it I think Throne series was more enjoyable Also DNF Fourth Wing but might pick it back up at some point. Enjoyed Powerless a lot pre ordered Reckless. Enjoyed the vlog😊
  • @Saina-1027
