The Book Sacrifice Tag

I was tagged by My Fantabulous Bookshelf to do the Book Sacrifice Tag!


The rules of this tag are:
1. Choose a book you want to sacrifice in each of the scenarios below
2. Once you finish the tag, make sure you tag other people!
DISCLAIMERS: The original tag was created by Ariel Bisset on YouTube and this tag was not meant to be offensive to any authors or people who like these books. It's just something fun we're doing :)

Scenario #1:
Imagine you're in a bookstore, casually walking up and down the shelves, browsing, when suddenly zombies begin attacking. An announcement comes over the PA system, saying that the primary weakness of zombies has been found: over-hyped books. What over-hyped book do you run to first to use as a weapon against the zombies?

I know a lot of people will scold me on this, but I will have to use The Hunger Games series. I would honestly chuck any one of those books in that series at the zombies. The series isn't awful or horrible, as some people describe books, but I just personally didn't quite like it. Part of the reason I didn't like it I think was because it was so over-hyped and so popular when I picked it up. I had already saw the first movie before I read the book and knew all of the actors who played the characters. It's unfortunate that I couldn't get to create my own characters for Katniss and Peeta in my head. 

Scenario #2:
You just left the hair salon with perfect hair when bam it starts raining. What sequel do you sacrifice as an umbrella to protect your beautiful hair?

I cannot think of a sequel I did not like, so I'm just going to go with another over-hyped book I did not like which is Perks of Being a Wallflower. (I bet a lot of people are shaking their heads now) One of the main reasons I didn't like this book was because it was just told in letters. Personally, I don't like books that just depend on letters to tell the story. I even tried watching the movie which I couldn't even get through. I hope one day to re-read this book, and maybe I'll like it if I give it another shot. 

Scenario #3:
Your English teacher is going on and on about how great this classic is. How timeless and universal and symbolistic it is. Everyone in the class seems to be buying into it, but you've read the book and know just how bad it is. Which classic was so stupid that you would risk detention just to throw it at your teacher to make your point?

Haha. I'm slightly regretting doing this tag since I can't come up with an answer for this one either! Since I've only read one classic, I'll just use that book, which is The Giver. Once again, another popular book. I read this book in school awhile ago, but my teacher takes the longest time to get through a book. Although The Giver is less than 200 pages, our class spent over two months just to finish this book. I didn't love this book but I didn't hate it either. The writing was good, but the world seemed a bit strange to me. I think it was kind of a weird dystopia, but it wasn't bad at all! I wouldn't exactly want to sacrifice it, but if I didn't have a choice, I probably would. 

Scenario #4:
You're hanging out at the library when suddenly global warming explodes and Earth has turned into a frozen wasteland. The only way to survive is to keep warm by using a book as fuel. What book do you run to first, knowing that if you burned it, you really wouldn't regret it that much?

I would have to pick The Coldest Girl in Coldtown for this one. I did not really like that book because I didn't feel any connections to the characters and plot. It took me a while to get through this book and I couldn't wait to finish it. I am not a fan of vampire books.

But in reality, I would never sacrifice any YA fiction book because I would never hate on a book that much. (I would probably use a textbook for protection since I don't care about those!)
