Top Ten Tuesday #6: Top Ten Books I Thought I'd Like MORE/LESS Than I Did

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish.

Here are the books that I thought I'd like more than I actually did:

Graceling (Graceling Realm, #1)Incarnate (Newsoul, #1)Everbound (Everneath, #2)Under the Never Sky (Under the Never Sky, #1)

Matched (Matched, #1)Ceaseless (Existence Trilogy, #3)Does My Head Look Big In This?

Books I thought I'd like LESS than I actually did:

The AlchemistBloodlines (Bloodlines, #1)Obsidian (Lux, #1)

As you can see, there are a LOT more books that were disappointing to me. Mostly I was disappointed because all my friends would be raving about how good it was, and once I read it, I never ended up understanding what made that book so special. Or, in the case of Everbound and Ceaseless, these sequels were not as enjoyable as the first books.

I think many people, like me, were not that sure about Bloodlines, mostly because the main character is Sydney, the "boring" girl from VA. But I, like countless others, were surprised to find out that we actually ended up loving this book.
