Books Everyone but Me Has Read (Part Two)

Advertisements

Last year I shared some of the books on my TBR that it felt like everyone but me had read. Since then, I wrote an update post about the books on the list that I read and my thoughts on them. There are so many books that I feel like everyone has read that I have yet to get to so I thought I would write a part two. I would love to know your thoughts on all of these books

Red, White, and Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston

41150487. sy475

# of Goodreads friends who have read it: 51

Red, White and Royal Blue is a new release but I have been seeing it everywhere! I seems as though everyone has read it already, and absolutely loved it. It sounds so sweet and charming. I think it just might be my next audiobook. I want to be part of the conversation!

Salt to the Sea by Ruta Sepetys

# of Goodreads friends who have read it: 79

Salt to the Sea is a book that has been on my list for years. Everyone was talking about it at the time and it is one of those books that I still see pop up from time to time. People often say it is one of the best WWII novels. So many people rave about all of Ruta Sepetys novels and I have yet to read anything by her.

Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte

# of Goodreads friends who have read it: 108

Jane Eyre is one of those classics that everyone seems to love. I often see people list it as their favourite classic. I have a feeling I will also love it and I have no excuse as to why I have not read it. I definitely need to make it a priority!

Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens

# of Goodreads friends who have read it: 36

Where the Crawdads Sing is one of those books that everyone and their mother has read. I have people in my real life recommending this one to me- which never happens! I adore historical fiction and this one sounds like it is going to be a winner.

We are the Ants by Shaun David Hutchinson

# of Goodreads friends who have read it: 48

I am ashamed to admit that I have not read anything by Shaun David Hutchinson. So many people list him as a favourite author and I just know I will love his books. I have all of his titles on my TBR but We are the Ants is the one that I want to get to first, and the one that it feels like everyone else has already read.

Eliza and Her Monsters by Francesca Zappia

# of Goodreads friends who have read it: 74

Eliza and Her Monsters was all the rage when it first come out in 2017. I love the premise of this one and I think it sounds exactly like the kind of YA novel that I adore. The cover makes me feel as though art is part of the story in some way- as I have mentioned before, art in novels is one of my favourite things!

The Fifth Wave by Rick Yancey

# of Goodreads friends who have read it: 93

The 5th Wave is one of those books that I feel like I missed the boat on. It is the one book on this list that I am not sure is worth reading. If you have read it- let me know your thoughts! It was absolutely everywhere when it first came up but I know that people were disappointed with the rest of the series.

The Handmaid’s Tale by Margaret Atwood

# of Goodreads friends who have read it: 110

Every time I talk about how I have not read The Handmaid’s Tale I feel like such a horrible Canadian. This is one of those books where I have always known the gist of the story despite not having read it. It is that well known and well loved!

Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi

# of Goodreads friends who have read it: 89

I truly think I am one of the few book bloggers who didn’t read Children of Blood and Bone when it first came out. It sounds awesome and so many people loved it. I know the sequel comes out soon so I need to get to it ASAP!

I would love to know your thoughts on all of these books!
