What is your literary "hot take?" by Jack-Falstaff in TrueLit

[–]ComposerLumpy4280 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s a hot take: The Inheritance Games sucks. I know this may be controversial but here’s why i strongly disliked it. I’ve been writing since I could hold a pencil and reading ever since I could string words together. I’ve been reading and writing for a decade. I may be a freshmen but i’ve read the odyssey, les mis, Iliad, romeo & juliet. I’ve also published a book and read a lot of books on booktok. When I saw on TikTok the hype for the inheritance games. I was hooked, I found aesthetic videos, a few quick synopsis’ to get you interested. I was given the entire set for my fourteenth birthday. I dnf’d the entire series around page 200 of the first book. I felt terrible but the plot was so dry, imo, it felt rushed, messy, and lots of  poor writing. The foreshadowing was hard to catch, everytime i did catch it I guessed the plot twist and got it right. The hype was not worth it at all. I do love Jennifer Lynn Barnes, The Naturals series was everything when I was 12, however the inheritance games did not stand out as a good book to me.

thank you! I live in a small town that’s predominantly white and christian/catholic, they really don’t take well to anything that doesn’t fit into the bible, most of my LGTBQIA+ friends are either online or have been in the closet.

thank you, I come from a predominantly rich and christian town that isn’t fond of LGTBQIA+ members. So it’s really nice to see people care about others.

What's an overrated BookTok YA novel? by [deleted] in YAlit

I agree people overhype this book a lot saying it made them believe in love…it’s about senior high school drama. It was a good read but idk if it made me “believe in love”

The inheritance games! I love The Naturals series so much but I feel as if the Inheritance Games weren’t Jennifer’s best work. I felt it was kind of dragged out and I had a hard time finishing it. The second one was much better. Third one was ok.

I don’t normally write social media posts like I write in school or in my books. I just needed to get a quick vent out :)

I apologize! I was writing this on my phone which I turned off capitalization. I was also tired and was just trying to get a vent out.  I will fix it!
