Q: What is a book you didn't like that all your friends raved about or what book did you love that wasn't popular?

There are a few of them. The last in Lauren Kate's Fallen series, Rapture. While I liked it, I hated the end. Also, there are a ton of mixed reviews for the Fifty Shades series, and I loved the first book. My love with the series dwindled until I was reading the last book only to see how Christian would evolve.

    I haven't read the Fallen Series but it is on my list. I also haven't read Fifty Shades because I have heard mixed things so I haven't been super motivated to pick it up yet. New GFC Follower :-)

    I've not read the Fallen Series but it is on my TBR. I almost went with 50 Shades but figured it would be a pretty popular answer this week. Thanks for stopping by this week. Old follower :)

    Sadly, I wasn't able to finish the first book in the Fallen series. I wanted to love it, but I just couldn't. =/

    I've read Fallen- but not any of the rest. Not because I didn't like it, but originally because I hadn't realized it was a series. LOL

    Hopping through. New follower! I wasn't a fan of the Fallen series. But I only read the first book. Maybe I'd like the rest better.

    Thanks for stopping by. I never read 50 Shades myself, but my wife devoured the trilogy pretty quickly.

    I read way too many mixed reviews on Lauren Kate's series that I didn't think I would like it. Hearing the same thing about 50 Shades of Gray. Never read it and don't plan to, but I know my sister ended up liking them!

    Here's my Follow Friday

    Have a GREAT weekend!

    I haven't read either or those series. I have Fallen on my TBR pile. And I have no desire to read 50 Shades of Grey. Glad you liked it though!

    I haven't read 50 Shades of Grey. Not my kind of book. I've seen too many mixed reviews on the Fallen series. Haven't made up my mind about reading the book yet.

    I read the first two in the Fallen series and then totally lost interest. Though I am curious to how it ended. And I totally get you with 50 shades. I was skimming through most of the last book and a half really just to see what would have happened. Though I could have just guessed.

      Yeah, it was pretty predictable towards the end.

    I agree with you about Raputre; It left me kinda underwhelmed :( the ending sucked.

    I haven't read the Fallen Series yet...I was really into reading it at first and then I came across some pretty bad reviews which took care of my desire.
