School Books I Never Wanted to Read that Were Actually Good:
1) Brave New World by Aldous Huxley
Books From Friends/Family I Never Wanted to Read
2) The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini (the bomb.com)
3) Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher (way better than I expected it to be - obviously)
4) Inkheart by Cornelia Funke (loved this one, but hated the rest of the trilogy)
Books I was Pressured Into by Society:
5) The Fault in Our Stars by John Green (a given)
6) Ashes & Shadows by Ilsa J. Bick (different from everything you've ever read!)
7) Pushing the Limits by Katie McGarry (hearbreaking)
8) The Book Thief by Markus Zusak (brilliant)
9) Between Shades of Grey by Ruta Sepetys (maybe the most important book I ever read)
10) The Vampire Academy Series by Richelle Mead (Vampires, but JK Rowling style)
So, what books were you forced to read that you actually like? And by whom?
I started Inkheart but it never really pulled me in. I want to start over though.
ReplyDeleteNice list. Happy reading!
Heehee! Like the "Books I was pressured into by society"!

I loved Brave New World! It was one that I had to read for school and loved, too. I still need to read The Book Thief, but have every intention of doing so. Great list!
