Book hype is the best thing that an author and a publisher can hope for. A book’s popularity has a huge pull towards getting people to read it. While this is mostly a good thing, it might not be the best thing for many readers looking for their next read. No matter how popular a book is, it will never be a fit for everyone. A large percentage of the hype a book gets is also fueled by the publisher via book tours and other similar promotions. I have to confess, I have fallen prey to hyped books that personally didn’t live up to they hype for me. Luckily, however, there are many hyped books that deserve every bit of the hype they’re getting. In this post, I’ll be sharing a list of nine popular books that are worth all the hype they’re getting on Booktube, Bookstagram, Goodreads, Book Twitter, and many other bookish platforms.
Please note that list is in no particular order, and all opinions are mine. I’ll be linking my blog/Goodreads reviews to the books I have reviewed. For the ones I’ve not reviewed, I will be reviewing soon!
