Today's prompt is books that are too good to review properly. I feel like there's a bunch over the years that could fit this category. So I'll scroll through the list and see what jumps out and list them here with my original bad review, lol! But I already know the very first one on the list is the book I just finished and attempted a review!
Ten Books I Loved Too Much to Review Properly
The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry by Gabrielle Zevin
The Sparrow by Mary Doria Russell
The Story of Edgar Sawtelle by David Wroblewski
The Book Thief by Markus Zusak
The Queen of Attolia by Megan Whalen Turner
Under the Never Sky by Veronica Rossi
Wives and Daughters by Elizabeth Gaskell
The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini
The Tightrope Walkers by David Almond
All I know is that I need to start reading some more meaty books again like most of these are. I miss this. I wonder if my brain can handle it yet?
I didn't even think of The Book Thief, but after seeing it on your list and Kami's, I'm kicking myself for not putting it on my list.
ReplyDeleteThe Kite Runner would be hard to review.
ReplyDeleteBoth the Kite Runner and The Book Thief jumped out at me as difficult to review.
ReplyDeleteTwo of our books are the same!
ReplyDeleteTotally agree on Zevin's book. Such a good read. Happy reading. My TTT https://readwithstefani.com/books-too-good-to-review-properly/
ReplyDeleteI really liked the Book Thief (did you see the movie?) but for some reason I couldn't get through Edgar Sawtelle! Sometimes I feel books are hard to review because so much has been said about them already.
ReplyDeleteThe Kite Runner made my list this week, as well. And The Book Thief is a popular choice this week. I didn't even think of it, but it's perfect for the prompt. Great choices!
