I have been on Twitter for about two years now and I feel
like I have a fairly good knowledge of books that are widely talked about.
Therefore, today I wanted to mention a few books that I feel like should be
talked about more. These books are very underrated in my opinion and should be
shown a little bit more love. Most of these books are Young Adult fiction, but
there are one or two that are adult.
The first category is fantasy.
All of these books hold a special place in my heart because
they gave me so many feels. Cruel Beauty by Rosamund Hodge is an amazing
fantasy story full of love, hate, and a crazy world that will have you
obsessed. Between by Megan Whitmer is a story of a girl who didn’t think she
was anything special, but she soon found out that she might be the last of her
kind. This book is filled with magic, fantasy characters you will automatically
love, and a romance that will have you aching. Scarlet is a twist on the story
of Robin Hood and after this book I was obsessed with the idea of Will Scarlet
actually being a girl in disguise. I am telling you this book will satisfy you
completely. Finally in the fantasy category, we have The Deep End of the Sea by
Heather Lyons. This is a mythology book based on Medusa and her story, but
there is a little twist. This book is about Medusa’s side of the story and how
she came to find love, her normal self, and forgiveness, and I am telling you
that this book wiggled its way into my heart and never let go. I have read it
three times and every time is just keeps getting better.
Next, we have the paranormal category,
I am pretty sure I reviewed almost all of these and I will
link each review below but in this category we have strong and fierce heroines
who aren’t afraid to fight for what they want or believe in. Mix that in with
the fact that there are angels, aliens, magic, werewolves, children of gods and
goddesses, and DRAGONS, you really cannot miss out on these books.
Lastly, we have a contemporary category.
Most of these I have also reviewed and I will link them below, but if you love contemporary then these books are a must read. They will make you think, take your mind to another place, capture you heart, and leave you feeling light hearted and floaty (yes, I am aware that isn’t a word) or thoughtful and resolved like all the good contemporaries do!
Many if not all of these books have earned five stars from
me and I can attest to the fact that even the pickiest person can love these
books! Check them out and tell me what you think! Do you have any books you
feel are underrated?
