Listen, since I’ve started blogging books are a lot less forgettable to me, because I end up writing a review for it (and if the review doesn’t wind up on my blog, it definitely goes on Goodreads). So when I saw that the prompt for today from That Artsy Reader Girl’s Top Ten Tuesday list, I knew I had to figure out what books I’ve read that I had completely forgotten about.

1. The Casual Vacancy by JK Rowling

I think Iliked this… I just don’t remember much about it. At all.

2. California by Edan Lepucki

This one was a pretty big book for a while – I’d see it everywhere in bookstores. I read it, and now I don’t remember what it was about at all.

3. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson

Occasionally I see this one on my shelf and go “oh yeah, that book existed.” Otherwise, I never think of it.

4. Everyone Brave is Forgiven by Chris Cleave

I read this one semi-recently and still can’t remember much about it

5. Jane Steele by Lindsay Faye

Besides having a GORGEOUS cover, I can’t remember a damn thing about this book. And I also read this one semi-recently!

6. The Miniaturist by Jessie Burton

This one had so much potential, but then it was just so blah.

7. Looking for Alaska by John Green

DON’T HATE ME FOR THIS ONE. This was my second John Green novel (after The Fault in Our Stars), and it paled in comparison to me. I don’t think I’ll be picking up another Green novel any time soon.

8. Life After Life by Kate Atkinson

All I remember about this book is that I wanted it to end. Here is my review.

9. Reboot by Amy Tintera

I read this one this year and I remember nothing.

10. The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern

LOL, I know a lot of you are probably clicking the “unsubscribe” buttons for my blog right now… but honestly, this is probably one of THE MOST forgettable books to me. I enjoyed it, sure, but it wasn’t that remarkable to me for some reason? In fact, if the blogosphere didn’t talk about this book non-stop, I’d long have forgotten about it by now.


Can you remember any of your forgettable books?
