    I'm not really one to regret books I buy, because I learn writing craft from every book I read. What I did once regret was buying an e-book copy of Winter for the cost of the hard cover, only to have the formatting be so pathetic I wondered if they actually had someone format it at all.
    But then I complained with the publisher and it turned out it was an error they hadn't spotted, so they sent me a free hard cover. So that was cool too.

    I relate. Dude, I got a nice beautiful edition of Moby Dick and I tried to read it to my husband. We both were soooo bored. We've never finished it. There's only so many chapters on whaling, different shades of white, whale depictions on wood and bone one can take. That is one I likely regret buying and I think I paid maybe 30 or 40 dollars for it at a used bookstore

    @awkward2morrow843 7 лет назад +3

    Love your honesty on these books! Felt the same about "the selection" series! I have the novella and the final book to read in that series. I literally won't be touching it. The covers are very pretty but after a while I fine myself getting annoyed with the characters. I'm now starting to question my recent purchase of the three crowns book. Haven't read it yet!

    I 100% agree with everything you said about Three Dark Crowns, that being said, I just finished an early copy of the second one and I promise it's 1000 times better. So even though you didn't like that one, I would actually really recommend picking up the second when it comes out 👍🏻

    reasons why I buy my books at Goodwill or a Second hand book store. I've found hyped books at goodwill brand new, bookmarked at the page the reader stopped at. So if I don't like it, instead of paying 25 bucks for a book I might not like, at most I spend 6 bucks

  • @graceperez8759
    @graceperez8759 7 лет назад

    Usually to avoid this problem I'd google the summary and if ut intrigues me I borrow it from the library. So if I don't like the book I send it back and if I do, I return the library book and buy my personal copy.

    @christinala8763 6 лет назад

    I hate buying books in stores because I genuinely spend 2 hours looking for a good book but then when I don’t find one and realize how long I’ve been there I just grab something that I hear is good because I feel guilty for being there so long then the book I randomly bought ends up being crap

  • @shapotter3

  • @fynn310
    @fynn310 7 лет назад

    omg, I think Lady Midnight looks so pretty and I'd like to read it, but its supposed to spoiler the end of The Mortal Instruments and I'm on City of Lost Souls, but its really hard for me to read it, because it feels like filler episodes in a TV show, even when the plot is good and I love the characters and just ugh

  • @InvisibleReads
    @InvisibleReads 7 лет назад

    I totally agree with you about Daughter of Deep Silence. I saw the paperback cover (which is also really beautiful) at my local independent bookstore and I thought it was going to be an awesome revenge plot with a kickass main character but what I got was a special snowflake that couldn't even go through with her plans because she looked into the eyes of a BOYFRIEND SHE HAD FOR LESS THAN A WEEK WHEN SHE WAS 14 AND KNEW THAT SHE WAS COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY IN LOVE???? Needless to say I was slightly disappointed.

    @tonjw97 7 лет назад +4

    Everything Everything is one of those books I bought because I LOVED the cover, but then I ended up absolutely hating the story. Like it was good at first, then came the so called "plot twist" that didn't even surprise me and made zero sense. Also I bought Not That Kind of Girl by Lena Dunham two years ago because it was everywhere. Honestly one of the worst decisions of my life. I don't even like Lena Dunham 😂 Anyway great video!

    I have not read a single Cassandra Clare book yet, but I still own copies of City of Bones, Clockwork Angel, and Clockwork Princess.
    I don't even know why.

    You can always have the special edition books as an investment that may appreciate in value. You maybe able to sell them at a higher price in the future if you want to.

  • @purplehazee90
    @purplehazee90 7 лет назад

    If it's any consolation, Lady Midnight was REALLY good so when you do get to it, I don't think you'll regret buying it :) I feel you on the limited edition thing though. I am not too bummed about it because I missed out on it the first time around, so I'm glad that I was able to obtain a copy BUT I would understand why those who paid a lot of money for it would be annoyed that something that was said to be "limited" actually was not.

    • @ellias
      @ellias  7 лет назад

      omg how help me.
      also i do plan on reading the series but NOT anytime soon tbh lol but yeah....i mean since i already bought the 'limited' edition why not XD DD

    I wasn't a fan of Red Queen either, I thought it was okay.
    The falling kingdom series was torture for me. Read the first book and I have 80 pages left to the last. I can't bring myself to finish it, tried so many times.

    So sad about And I darken. Easily my favorite YA book of 2016. It was so cool to read a unique YA book. I agree about most of the others, tho.

    Why don't you just bring Lady Midnight back? If you had just bought the other day?

  • @LilyAthena738
    @LilyAthena738 7 лет назад

    I have done that so often. I just get rid of the book. I've also started buying more books used and using the library if I'm not sure I'll like the book.

    • @ellias
      @ellias  7 лет назад

      i know. for my 2017 resolution i plan on using the library ALOT more often. especially for new debut authors.

    Is three dark crowns that bad!!!? The premise sounds like something I'd love. It I'm not really a YA fan (great stories but not enough depth!) so I'm nervous! My library doesn't even have it so I have to buy it if I want it!
