The opposite of last week’s question: “What’s the best ‘worst’ book you’ve ever read — the one you like despite some negative reviews or features?”
The book that comes to mind first when I think of answering this question is The Memory Keeper’s Daughter by Kim Edwards. I read and blogged about TMKD in October of 2007 and at the time there was a Lifetime Movie adaption of the book coming out and the reviews of the book weren’t great. I agreed with the reviews to a point but over all, I really liked the book. I usually agree with the book bloggers out there on books but this one was an edge of your seat read for me and I am glad I read it.
I liked this book!
I played … even though I couldn’t think of one 😦
Haven’t read this book.
Bad good books can be so fun
Hey Book Girl! Thanks for stopping by Planet Books. It’s always interesting to see what all the hub-bub is about, whether it’s good or bad. I wouldn’t call this book a waste of time. You might like it as I did. Or not. 🙂
i hope i don’t get stoned for this one…but i just can’t get into ‘the book thief’. i have no idea what’s wrong with me. it’s getting rave reviews everywhere…but it’s just not happening for me. 😦
Uh oh.. I just downloaded The Book Thief onto my Kindle last night because of all the great reviews I was seeing.
I liked this one too. I did take issue with a couple of things, especially near the end, but even with that, I think it was well worth my time.
I’ll have to see it you reviewed it on your site LF.
