Reacting to Your Insane Unpopular Opinions 

Aaaaah thank you so much for inviting me to your amazing channel so that we can do this video! Was honestly SO MUCH FUN! 🎉🎉

Pretty much every book tube I follow has raved about the green bones saga, yet no one has made me even slightly interested in picking it up. Maybe one day I’ll read it and love it, but it doesn’t intrigue me at all

21 dating 16 in Mistborn is fine. Fantasy and Fantasy Romances you just naturally change the ages to whatever makes sense for you. Its fantasy in a fantastical world. And don't remind me of Twilight lol, the mental gymnastics I had to go through for it to make sense and OK lol

I think an important aspect of Sword of Kaigen that got lost in the hype, was that Wang didn't initially intend the book to be this popular. According to her blog posts, she wrote the story while she was going through a really dark period in her life. She was basically unknown at the time, and it was more of a passion project. Her writing was a sort of therapy, she never expected anyone to actually read it. When people read it now, they don't know any of this and end up comparing it to books by millionaire authors who have access to the best editors. I went in with the mindset that this book was very personal to Wang, and it was an incredibly powerful reading experience.

I think most people who think Lord of the Rings is boring is probably because of the language. It doesn't use the same language style that we are so used to today like Sanderson's. So that can be a bit tricky.

Would definitely love to see a part 2 🥰

This was so much fun! I might have to do this sometime. The Elend one was the funniest take! I disagree, but it was funny the way it was written! 😂

i vote for a repeat, it was so much fun!! great video 👏

Fun fact: Did you know that in the German edition, Vin's love interest is spelled "Elant", because "Elend" is the German word for misery? 😂

Great video guys! Definitely want the second part of this type of video!

This was great and so much fun! Definitely need a Part 2.

Another fantastic video!!! Thank you!!!

Neeeeeed part 2. Unpopular opinions are always fun.

Hahah this was sooo much fun! I love that you brought Isa on to react to these. There were definitely some interesting hot takes, I would love to see a part 2!! 🤣🤩

amazing duo! more or these two plx

I love seeing how animated Isa gets talking about books, it just makes me very happy for some reason. Also are you guys from the same place or do your accents just sound the same to my untrained ears?

Great fun, thank you 😊 🙏

I loved Jade City, but was so disappointed by Jade Legacy. The time jumps made me feel so disconnected from the characters. It felt like a summary of a series rather than a novel.

I love Lord of the Rings. It's probably my favorite fantasy story. But I wasn't impressed with the movies.

Let’s see a part two. This video wasn’t long enough. 😢

Yes! I agree with the Piranesi comment. Everyone else seems to love it, but I was so underwhelmed. I kept thinking how can such a short book be so boring?!

This is awesome 🤣

Unpopular opinion. I didnt finish the Grace of Kings. So dissapointed. I really wanted to love it😂

My two favourite book-tubers together 🎉

- Definitely some wild opinions there 😂

Comparing lord of the rings to modern fantasy is like Comparing the original iphone to todays models.

Hi 👋 great video 🎥

That's why Lord of the rings is so good though. it doesn't have to be fast passed to be good

damn, those are really unpopular opinions

I say yes to part 2 :) Unpopular opinion: I hated Dune. I can see what people like, and its importance to the genre. Does not mean I enjoyed reading it Edit: There are things I greatly enjoyed, but other things just... ruined it. I'm also not fond of "my special training means I control my emotions to the point I can shut them off" makes for an unrelatable character who feels more like a sociopath than anything. Jessica initially was my favorite. But as soon as inciting incident happens she becomes a helpless waif who needs her 15 year old son to order her around to even slightly function. The way any and all deaths are handled. Some are off page. Some are glanced over. It makes them feel pointless. And strips away any importance characters had. It feels like teenage wish fulfillment. Teenager is raised in a super special club. Steps up into role of a powerful parent whole the other parent has to worship and obey them. They're awesome at everything they do because prophecy (I am aware this is subverted by later booke) and literally worshipped by a group of "badass" people. I think this is a key to why so many loved this book. It probably connected to them as a kid and has a huge impact as a result. Its like Harry Potter. I doubt I'd love it if I read it blind at 35 instead of being 10 when book 1 was published. Stuff I liked: the world building. How can I hate that part? The extreme desert planet. The sandworms, the spice, the way people survive with so little water.

My unpopular opinion is that the majority of Stephen King’s best books were written in the 21st century. His newer stuff is better than his classic older stuff (on average).

I'm not sure about Silmarillion or Tolkien's other works, but I don't think that Sauron is a good villain in the Lord of the Rings trilogy itself. I think that he is more of a good threat. his pressence is felt, but I don't think he actively participates enough to be a compelling villain.

Hmm.. as someone that haven't read the Godfather or Green Bone Saga i kind of want to read the books in that order to see if that comment have any truth to it.🤔

Excuse me, my husband and I started dating when I was 16 and he was 21. That nonsense opinion is sometning I take personally. P.S.in the „History of Middle Earth" Sauron has kind of backstory, not much but still. P.S.2 I love the Silmarillion even more than lotr, is that weird 😂 I love Sanderson's books as well

A Song of Fire and Ice a.k.a. Game of Thrones is dime store fantasy for neophytes and basically sucks when compared to Howards Conan or Feists Riftwar or Asprin & Abbey et. al. Thieves World.

You can take pretty much any book in any genre and many people will tell you just how bad that books. And, the more popular said book is, the more some people will dislike it. Lots of people dislike whatever is popular and will eagerly tell you just how and why it is no good. Would be interested in more content of this nature.

My unpopular opinions: 1. The Book of the New Sun series by Gene Wolfe is way overrated, ridiculous and was written as a parody of sci-fi and fantasy. 2. Canticle for Leibowitz is also way overrated, is not a novel and is mostly dull. Opinion that isn't really unpopular but could get me in some trouble: Name of the Wind is overrated, not "Top 20" material, and the main character, Kvothe, is a Marty-Stu perfect boy.

Sometimes, "This book sucked" really means "It didn't give me what I was looking for" or "I was unable to appreciate it," which is the fault of the reader, not the book.

Unpopular opinion that would get me in guillotine :- i dont find streaming platform stickers annoying in the book covers😅

Priory should have been printed will small margins. It's page count is bloated due to the publisher wanting to make it look large.

The rings of power 🙂🙂🙂🙂

The Hobbit 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

The lord of the rings 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Did you just say "From the movie it seems...." What was that? 😢 Since when do we judge a book by its movie? 😮 Let's try to read the books before...

Calling a 21 yo dating a 16 yo a pedo is stretching it way too far wtf.

lotr? too long, too convoluted, too mant places and characters, ain't nobody got time fer dat

LOTR is a good book to read or movie to watch if I need a nap. It’s boring to me. Not my genre.

Fantasy books with asian setting don't appeal to me at all! Their history until 20 century is also boring af!

I vote for a part 2. My Hot take is that Hunger Games is a PG rip off of Battle Royale

Unpopular opinion. Harry Potter is really quite bad. Not as good as everyone thinks it is.
