Overhyped Books

OK folks, time for some "hot takes" up in here. These are books that aren't necessarily good or bad, but are (at least from where I stand) overhyped when I compare how they are talked about vs. the book as I experienced it. What are some overhyped books you've read? Lipstick: "An Affair" by Laura Mercier ~*~*~ Books Mentioned: Wicked Saints by Emily Duncan The Gilded Wolves by Roshani Chokshi Middlegame by Seanan McGuire Children of Blood & Bone by Tomi Adeyemi A Gathering of Shadows by VE Schwab A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness The Magicians by Lev Grossman The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern The Passage by Justin Cronin Morrigan's Crossing by Nora Roberts The Fault In Our Stars by John Green The Book Thief by Marcus Zusak Swimming Home by Deborah Levy The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon We Were Liars by E Lockhart One of Us is Lying by Karen McManus The Seven and a Half Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton The Cuckoo's Calling by Robert Galbraith Killers of the Flower Moon by David Grann A Million Miles in a Thousand Years by Donald Miller ~*~*~ Goodreads: goodreads.com/bookslikewhoa Instagram: instagram.com/bookslikewhoa Twitter: twitter.com/bookslikewhoa I also review on Read Bliss:    / channel   Thanks so much for watching!
