To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before by Jenny Han

The synopsis for this definitely sounds interesting, but it is still just a romance. I know that so many people love this series and there was so much hype surrounding the last book release was a bit crazy! But this isn’t something I would actually read and it’s only on my TBR because of all they hype surrounding it.

Verdict: DELETE

Harry Potter: The Creature Vault: The Creatures and Plants of the Harry Potter Films by Jody Revenson

I have three of these books on my TBR and I’m only going to write one description. I am a HUGE Harry Potter fan and I want to know everything! I have the Character Vault and it was so interesting see things for the filming side of things and I want to read all of them!

Verdict: KEEP

This book sounds so interesting! Magical powers, phantoms, beasts and badass females?! This book sounds right up my alley and I will definitely be getting my hands on a copy of this book!

Verdict: KEEP

The Wangs Vs. The World by Jade Chang

This book follows a Chinese family living in America. I haven’t read a book about a Chinese main character I don’t think, so that is one reason I want to read it. Also this is meant to be a contemporary comedy book of sorts and I really want to read a book that is intended as comedy but also about a diverse topic (Immigration).

Verdict: KEEP

The Underground Railroad by Colson Whitehead

CYxltN6WAAMMdqt

So this is an Historical Fiction book about being a slave in America in the pre-Civil War Era. There is a lot of mixed reviews about this book and some people have said they didn’t connect with characters and there were also some comments about things being inaccurate. I have no idea if this will be accurate, but I still want to read this book. I don’t know a lot about slavery in America, as I’m not american I didn’t study it in school as or anything like that. But I hope this book can show me a bit of what it was like. And I’m really interested in read this. Also I haven’t read a Historical Fiction book that wasn’t set around war, so that will interesting.

Verdict; KEEP

Burn for Burn by Jenny Han & Siobhan Vivian

So this is a book about revenge, however it is still labeled as a romance, which turns me off this book. I have a copy of this on Scribd as it sounded interesting by the synopsis, but now that I’m seeing that it is labeled as a romance I’m not interested. The main reason I was interested was because it just sounded like a revenge story and I was intrigued. But now, not so much.

Verdict: DELETE

Trutchwitch by Susan Dennard

This is a series I have wanted to start for ages, just haven’t got around to it. I am a massive fantasy fan and this world sounds so interesting! This book also seems like it doesn’t seem to be a focus on romance at all which I am loving! It’s so unique to find a book that isn’t focused on romance, so I’m keen for that!

Verdict: KEEP

Falling Kingdoms by Morgan Rhodes

falling-kingdoms

This is a high fantasy world and the world itself sounds really interesting. I like how in the synopsis you can choose whose side you think sounds the best. There is an implied romance, I think, in the synopsis but it doesn’t seem to be a big focus so I’m not too worried. I like how this book follows 4 different characters and I’m assuming that it will be written in Multi POV.

Verdict: KEEP



So I only deleted 2 books, but it is better than nothing haha! But oh well, that is all for todays Down the TBR Hole!
