Follow Friday: Some Number






Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee. This is a great way to connect with other bloggers in the blogosphere.
This week's question is:
Have you ever bought a book BECAUSE of a bad review?

ANSWER: Yes it happens ALL the time . But one recent choice I made was because of all the drama surrounding it and the bad reviews. And that book is THE SELECTION by Kiera Cass. I want to form my own opinion on it. 
The Selection (The Selection, #1)

    so what was the result - did you read the book and have the same opinion as the others?

    Oh, the Selection! I understand definitely what you mean. I'm pretty intrigued by it too, and all the media hype around it.

    I've been hearing only good things about The Selection. I'm planning on buying it though because I've heard a bunch a hype about it. Happy reading!

    Happy Friday!

    It seems like more than a few people have picked up the Selection to read and have either changed their minds, or agreed with the reviews.

    I hadn't heard about any drama re: The Selection. The cover is gorgeous, though.

    I heard some of the drama, too, but I also plan to read it. Negative reviews and drama makes me more aware of books than lukewarm and positive reviews manage to do most of the times. oô
