EXACTLY LMAO

THANK YOUUU

RIGHT

faxs

YESSS

How could it NOT be???

@@thereaderofelfhame YES

Yess

ITS LITERALLY SO 💘😫💘💘❤️❤️😫🏳️‍🌈😫❤️❤️😫😫❤️💘

ABSOLUTELY

I thought I was the only one 😂

I didn‘t like it either!

I was fine with everything and thinking to myself "well, that one I agree, that one I guess is just preference, oh everyone has a different opinion..." And then it got to song of Achilles and I was flabbergasted. Every single tolerant thought disappeared

Well, to consider the impact this book has in my life, I do not accept that this book is 5 star. It’s more than that. “Go” she said... and I still start to cry when I remember...

I also HATED that book sorry not sorry @avnichauhan8051 I don’t know WHYyy but just no … and it is a hype book

True it ends with us is soo good

She has a few really good poems, actually. I’d recommend giving it a shot

No don't read it if you want to stay pure 😭

Its trash

​@@velpixel1100 my friend read it in 3rd grade.. 💀

It’s trash

Sameeee 😭🖐️

it ends with us is my person favorite out of all of those

I loved They Both Die at the End but I respect if they didn't care for it. I & my friends had different opinions on it but would definitely recommend

​@@avajohnson7612oh I did not like tbdite at all. Like good concept but the whole thing felt rushed and unreal in a bad way. Wouldn't rlly recc

fr im currently reading they both die at the end and im about to read normal people

Why is this guy hearting all these comments 😭😭 bro has no right

I wanna to read this book how it will be ? Please do reply

Personally I didn’t really like song of Achilles much, but I think a lot of people do. I wasn’t a bad book by any means it just wasn’t my thing

lmaooo the moment I saw I knew better than to trust this person's recommendations

LITERALLY i immediately did not trust the recommendations 💀

Lmaooo fr but also that plus midnight library being on there was a red flag lol

Right all my trust out the window

Is it that bad?

I've been wanting to read that book, can u tell me what it's about ?

@@ohlookadandelion basically, it’s about the Ancient Greek myth of Achilles and his adventures and such. It’s about him and his best friend (who many historians believe was his lover) and their love story, challenges in their lives, etc. it’s really good, and a really sad book. I recommend it 100%! Sorry if I’m a little late to this haha

I love the song of Achilles rn i reading it and it's grate😊

Yeah right like i literally cries reading it... It is definitely on my 5 star list

fact.. I still cry to this day just by thinking about it

Same those two were definitely 5 stars for me

I read they both die in the end a few days after the song of achilles. I thought I could handle it, but my wound was too fresh. I cried. Buckets.

Yesss it’s a bit hard to follow but sooo magical and amazing!

Underrated? Isn’t it like all over booktok and booktube rn?

I love that book, wished I had finished it though

i haven't read tnc but i have read the starless sea! i cant wait to read tnc next, i love the writing style

Yes it's magical❤❤

IKR LIKE WTF?

YEESSS I WAS 😡

Exactly

I didn’t like it either everyone is DIFFERENT and everyone has different likes and opinions lets respect 😊

@@amaliaperez1876 TSOA is amazing. 🤷‍♀ all there is to it.

what's the book abt?

@@issashreyaa I havnt read it but I think it’s a love story between archilles and another Ancient Greek character with themes of war and other Greek myth stuff

@@eleanor9068 what r u reading currently btw?

It’s ok , it’s really good but I didn’t find it mindblowing or heartbreaking Maybe it was just overhyped

@@wrinkleintime4257 I didn’t realise when I read it that it was so popular, I just picked it up in the book store. I think I like it so much because of the way the author tells the story. This book is so thoroughly understandable, yet it still manages to be complex and riveting. I definitely get what you mean by “not mind blowing” but I just really enjoyed reading it 😊

True. You can also try Voyagers of hell. It's awesome.

it’s so gooddd

That book literally shaped my worldview

im rereading it rn! im like 30 pages in and I have like 40 annotations

@@amphibian2982 oh- oh nyo

​@@amphibian2982 ikr , every line is gorgeous 😭

Why it is confusing one.

​@@Soni-sz5si it can be because Greek myth cuz the whole myth things are chaos

It's so good

Ikr people don't talk enough about it

True🙃

One hundred percent

It ends with us was just, goddamn I hated everything about it but I couldn’t stop reading and loved everything about it at the same time

Please it ends with us is the worst book in the world

Exactly

@@saanthwanak4269 not tryna offend you but why

The Best book ever ✊😔 Yesterday I saw the film Troy, and I ended up crying when partroclus dies 😭

I made the mistake of finishing it in public, as soon as I got home I was crying my eyes out

I cried my eyes out after finishing too. I have read it over 20 times by now and still cry everytime I read it

See im the same, i never cry over books but i did cry while reading the book theif but i didnt cry while reading song of achilles haha

fr at least as a greek mythology nerd I was familiar with the myth and ready for it, but still, oof

Lmao

Yeah

THANK YOU! I LOVED THAT BOOK

Omg same I loved it

OMG YES

I loved it so much

i’ve never read it but i want to!

It’s giving no taste isn’t it

@@dylanashryver1872 it really is

SAME Its my all-time favorite book

Yeah. That book is just disappointing, really did a bad job

The thing with booktok is everyone basically makes the same content because popular topics brings in views. I try to find creators that genuinely will give their honest review that was well thought out. Also a lot of people base their review of a book entirely on how it made them feel rather than actually fleshing out the book to properly give people a true review. It doesn't even have to be anything deep or super specific. But because emotion is so subjective it makes those kind of reviews unreliable for the average person wanting to know if it's worth it based on their taste and interest.

it ends with us lived up to the hype imo, but maybe that’s because my friend and I read it at the same time and she went through similar experiences as the main character. I understood what the main character went through because I’ve seen it with my own eyes. It really resonated with us, but maybe it was because my friend had went through it and I was her closest support. The book still sticks with me today. It is powerful.

exactlyyy they both die at the end left me a little confused actually lol

@@angelicizedeve lol this is so late. but it left me with sosososos many questions. we never got any explanation to death cast or why it works or who created it or idk it could’ve been a whole ass series tbh with u. they basically created a dystopian world BUT i will say that my theory is that it has nothing to do with death cast or wtv being correct but more of just when u expect something to happen it definitely will. i think if they didn’t accidentally kill themseleves by roaming the streets or skydiving or something then the death cast poeple will get rid of them

Currently reading it!🙌

@@BTSARMY-zv8sm yayy 😆😆

YESSSSS SAMEEEE

@Cloudykook it issss worth reading

Personally I liked it at first, but struggled to keep reading it towards the end

maybe you should check out the book house of scorpion? it's not really related but the vibe similar ( if you're ok with murder talk )

I didn’t really like the end in the movie, so you recommended the book?

I was crying all day :)

I almost cried. 10/10 Book

Good to know I have to read it for school

same man

Hey. Actually am a new reader and not an expert in English as it isn't my first language. Whenever I start to read a book, there are so many words that I don't know the meaning of, so I have to search their meanings on Google or in dictionary, and it really becomes very hard to search the meanings of words every time. I need help in this, it would be very nice of you to give me any tip or advice on this. Thank you.

@@areehaqamar1097 hey, I would actually recommend reading easier books. This may seem weird if you are an older individual, but when learning a new language, you have to learn the foundation. I would recommend reading kids series (there are some really good ones out there- Percy Jackson, 39 clues, Geronimo Stilton (pretty easy to read), and there are so many more out there). You can then move on to tween books, etc. I know this may seem like pretty shit advice if you just want to read something adult or whatever, but we all gotta start somewhere; and if you want to stop every minute to search up what a word means, then you gotta actually read something more at your level. As you start progressing, you will obviously be able to read harder things. A general rule of thumb to finding a book at your level, is by reading the first page of it. If you can’t understand anything or have to search up a variety of words to find out what’s going on, it’s too hard for you. If you can understand the general idea with probably not knowing the meaning of one or two words but can infer what it means, then it’s okay for you. As a final piece of advice, when struggling with the meaning of a word, I would first reread the sentence or last couple of sentences to get a general idea of what it could mean. After you guess the meaning, you can search it up to see what it means. It’s a stronger exercise to help you remember what a word means. Hopefully this helps :)

@@justamilkycowmoo wow you have given me a lot to think about, thank you so much for offering your valuable advice. I will definitely start working on this.

@@areehaqamar1097 No problem! Good luck in achieving your goal :)

Exactly!! Everybody has their own opinions and likes on books.. it's okay even if you don't like a popular book or you love a book others hated..

if i started reading classics it’s because of the book thief. it will become one one day

Bridge of Clay, also by Markus Zusak, is so good!! If you like Book Thief and I am the Messenger, you'll love Bridge.

midnight library was very frustrating and repetitive for me to read tbch, but i agree with the message

I loved that book too 💕

@@wordswarsandsymphonies I totally understand why you might have found it repetitive because she is going through the same cycle over and over again. but the different lives and experiences still made it quite interesting

@@thecorpsebridelife it really was a good one

It’s one of the few books I’ve ever given 1 star. People seem to love it, but I hated it, felt like a self-help book disguised as fiction. Would’ve given no stars, however, he’s a good writer.

Yes I agree actually

Normal people is the shitiest book I’ve ever read and I’ve read a jill mansell book💀💀

@@Mcbling361 well sorry for u, that was just my opinion. have a great day!

ikr? the whole thing put me in a pensive state 😭 like, for days I was in this introspective bubble that I just couldn't pop.

I never read the book but let me just say the series was the shittiest series ever!!!

YES!!!!

ME TOO I AM GATEKEEPING RHAT BOOK FOR THE REST IF ETERNITY IT IS A SACRED HOLY OBJECT

SAME ITS ABSOLUTELY EXQUISITE

Totally obsessed with this one! My absolute favorite!

I READ IT WHEN I WAS LIKE 7 AND DIDN’T UNDERSTAND THE ENDING RE READING SOON

NO ONE TALKS ABOUT IT ENOUGH BRO ITS MY DIE HARD FAVE

Same oml I’ve read it like 5 times!!

SAME I love it sm

Yess I really enjoyed that book!

Nah. If anything it's overrated. At best it's like 3 stars.

Currently reading the midnight library

Imo it doesn't

@@sweeety969 Ok :) If you don't mind me asking- why not?

​@@sweeety969 same

Yeah 😭

😭😭😭😭😭....yes man...that was good...why people hate it...😢😢😢?

Bro it ends with us was so good wdym

​@@glowup_astheticJust stating my opinion, the book is more like a fanfic

I feel the same way...I'd give it 3 stars actually

Same! I gave it 3.5

2

Yes! It’s sosososo good!

I really enjoyed it

yes !! got me crying lol

Coleen Hoover sucks. "Booktok" isn't real literature. If you want real 5/5 stars go read some Dostoevsky or Kafka

Agree

It is!

i gave it 1 star

@Yumimuku I can see how people like it! Unfortunately I did not like the writing 😞

@@somatoes4667 i would give it a 0.5 star if possible!!

Naah bro, I didnt like it much, like sire ot was good for passing time amd this is coming from a huge romance genre lover,It was very cliche and felt like a wattpad story, It seemed rushed and stuff was kinda predictable from the beginning, I knew their relationship would not last much because then what was the point of introducing Atlas, And ofcource they got married too quick amd everything wad going soo positive and lovely.. idk, People have hyped this book up, A 3.5 star from me, Even skipped a few pages cuz they were cringy

I really liked Daisy Jones and the six. It's kind of set like a magazine article, but it takes superstars (although fictional ones) and makes them seem much more like real people. It has separate sections with different characters and really focuses on how they grow and interact. I've never been good at descriptions, but i swear it's way better than I'm making it sound--

@@cosmicaii Thanks for the recommendation 😀

THE NIGHT CIRCUS THE NIGHT CIRCUS OH MY GOD THAT BOOK IS INCREDIBLE

respectfully i have too disagree 😭

Yes it did make me feel at the start coz I just felt really sad for Marianne but then I just felt angry coz this girl is sooo toxic to herself. The book is just about a rich, pretentious, highly damaged girl hopelessly in love with a guy who doesn't love her back the same way . Most depressing book I've read in a while

I think that is a very subjective thing, and people will probably experience it differently. Obv there are some common consensus on a lot of literal works but when it comes to this stuff it's very personal. Fair opinion tho.

It was a great book definitely.

Yes!
