Top Ten Tuesday

Today I am participating in a weekly bookish meme called Top Ten Tuesday. The topic is: Ten Books I Loved Less/More than I Thought I Would.

1. Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi
Average Goodreads rating: 4.02 stars 
My rating: 2 stars

I really, really wanted to love this book. I've heard amazing things about it on Bookstagram but, I did not enjoy it at all. I struggled to finish it and when I finally did, I ended up strongly disliking the entire book. Since I finished this book, I haven't read the rest of the series and I currently do not intend to.

2. What Light by Jay Asher
Average Goodreads rating: 3.56 stars
My rating: 5 stars

I just skimed through some of the reviews on Goodreads and I am shocked. I didn't realize that so many people didn't like this book. I absolutely loved this book. It was nice to read a contemporary around the holiday time. I would definitely say that I like this book more than most people.

3. Fallen by Lauren Kate
Average Goodreads rating: 3.74 stars
​My rating: 2 stars

Agh I had extremely high expectations for this series. I loved the concept and I even started the book right after I bought it. This book was nearly impossible for me to get through. I had such a tough time finishing it, I am not motivated at all to read the rest of the series. I did draft a review for it but never posted it for some reason. I will get that post up at some point.

4. The Lux Series by Jennifer L. Armentrout
I gave every one of these books 5 stars. This is what the averages were on Goodreads:
Obsidian: 4.24 stars
Onyx: 4.34 stars
Opal: 4.35 stars
Origin: 4.44 stars
​Opposition: 4.44 stars

​I don't even know where to begin... I am completely obsessed with this series. If you have been on my blog for a while, you will know that my all time favorite series is the Lux series by Jennifer L. Armentrout. If I could I would give these books more than 5 stars.

5. Roseblood by A.G. Howard
Average Goodreads rating: 3.49
My rating: N/A

​I haven't finished this book yet, so I can't give you a rating, but I can tell you this: I am not liking this book so far. I started it around the middle of Jan. and I've been struggling to finish any of it. When I finish it I will probably give it a 2-3 star rating.

6. The Dark Elements series by Jennifer L. Armentrout
This is pretty much the same thing as the Lux series. I gave these books very high ratings. Here are the average Goodreads ratings:
White Hot Kiss: 4.28 stars
Stone Cold Touch: 4.40 stars
Every Last Breath: 4.31 stars

I loved these books. I don't have much to say but I think I liked these books more than the average reader.

7. The Infernal Devices by Cassandra Clare
This is the same as the Lux series and the Dark Elements series. I gave these books five stars. Here are the average Goodreads ratings:
Clockwork Angel: 4.33 stars
Clockwork Prince: 4.47 stars
Clockwork Princess: 4.59 stars

I don't really have much to say except that I loved these books!

8. Of Fire and Stars by Audrey Coulthurst
Average Goodreads rating: 3.68 stars
​My rating: N/A

​I couldn't fnish this book. If I ever do, it will get 2-3 stars.

I know this is kind of cheating but these are all of the books I could think of that I liked more or less than other people.
