Hello! I’ve been tagged by Raven @Dreamy Addictions and Rae @ Bookmark Chronicles to do the Burn, Reread, Rewrite
The Rules:
-Randomly choose 3 books.(You can use the ‘Random’ option on your Goodreads read shelf.)
-For each group, decide which book to burn, which one to rewrite, and which to reread.
-Repeat until you completed three rounds. (I decided to do five rounds)
Round 1:
Burn: Cruel Beauty by Rosamund Hodge. It was just a really confusing book that was strange and definitely a series that I do not plan on continuing.
Rewrite: I think Magonia was a book that had a lot of potential, but fell short because of boring writing and a main character that was hard to like, so if it was rewritten, maybe I’d like it better.
Reread: Simon vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda. I loved this book! It was cute and funny and sure, I’d love to reread it.
Round 2:
Burn: It’s difficult but I’d choose to burn the Unbound. As a sequel, this book just fell short and was boring.
Rewrite: Dumplin’ was a highly enjoyable read that was missing that extra something to make it really good, so maybe a rewrite would give it that extra oomf.
Reread: Colleen Hoover is forever my favorite NA author and this book went in a pretty dark direction, but nonetheless was written amazingly.
Round 3:
Burn: The Heir. While I did like this book, Eadlyn was really annoying as a character and I didn’t feel attached to this book like I did with he first three in the original trilogy. Speaking of which, I still have to read the Crown, the last book in the series.
Rewrite: Air Awakens. I loved this book a lot, but I loved Heir of Fire more which is why Air Awakens is getting a rewrite.
Reread: So yeah obviously I’d reread Heir of Fire because Sarah J. Maas is brilliant.
Round 4:
Burn: The Last Dragonslayer. It’s not like this was a bad book, it’s just that it read like middle grade and was so annoying because it was about this totally fantasy world that was so childish.
Rewrite: The Jewel. This one had such a promising plotline but feel short. I really don’t know, it just was a frustrating read and if it was written differently maybe I would have loved it.
Reread: Once again, SJM is awesome. ACOTAR is awesome. I just finished A Court of Mist and Fury, and it was also awesome.
Round 6:
Burn: Soundless. This book was okay. Nothing speical though. Right now, I just finished the Glittering Court and really disliked it. I’m kind of wondering if maybe Richelle Mead was a one trick YA writer with Vampire Academy because her most recent YA novels have been pretty bad for me.
Rewrite: Clearly Harry Potter cannot be rewritten so the Prince’s Gambit it is. I would have it rewritten so that it was LONGER, because this trilogy had waaaaay too few pages and I just needed more!!!
Reread: Yeah, so Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is getting a reread! I’ve reread this book so many times already though.

This is such a fun tag! And while I was scrolling and saw The Heir, I don’t know why but I immediately knew it was going to be the one you burn. Haha!

Haha, did you dislike the heir?

I did, unfortunately. I wasn’t a big fan of The Selection in the first place, but I did finish the trilogy. And then The Heir came into the picture and I was even more disappointed. I decided to not continue with The Crown.

Yeah I liked the selection, but the heir was a disappointment. I think I will read the crown though

I think I managed to read at least a few chapters of The Crown before giving up? It wasn’t that it was so awful or anything like that, I guess I had the biggest issue with Eadlyn. Haha.

Yeah that will probably be mine too, but I am kind of curious to read who she ends up with in the end (don’t spoil me if you know haha)

Haha I do know, actually. I think I read it in some tag?? But of course I won’t spoil you. It’s, like, in the book lovers’ Code of Honor or something. Haha!

I think that’s the only part of the crown that I’m actually looking forward to, to see if eadlyn picks who I think she’ll pick
