Popular Books I Dont Like ! ( Totally Overhyped Books)
The worst mistake of my life is reading half girlfriend!!!😭😭
Haha it is!
Haha I am glad now that I haven't read it till now.
My condolence to you. 🙏 I can totally understand the pain you’re going through 😂😂
I was about to buy half girlfriend book but my jn. Save me by saying didi u can waste your time doing anything no need to buy that ....And the same reaction I got from anyone
one indian girl😵😵
You know ur the first youtuber or booktuber , I would say, who is like
"Buri hai to hai.... I'll not lie "
AND " even if nobody supports me"
Let me tell......
Ur attitude is awesome
सच्च मे
I get tears in my eyes whenever I see Harry Potter books and ligos on your shelf. Yes, I'm a potterhead and J.K.Rowling has changed my life.
Dude !!! THANK YOU FOR SAYING THAT!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you....So so sooooooo much..... J.K Rowling shaped my personality too......The Wizarding Universe is the thing that I can die for !!!
I am also..........
Me too!
I think Rowling has changed all of our lives to its best!! :):)
@@jadythemovielover7417 Even shr herself is changed now a days that's why potterheads are upset with her!😕😧
Every writer should write some trash so that non-readers get the habit of reading. Then they should write some good books so that new readers can learn what to read.
Well, cant agree more. :p
Wow, super thinking
Superb. Spot on
Lol
u got me there, gurl
I was waiting for half girlfriend to pop up😂😂
Haha you know me
Mr too
Me too
One indian girl!
Me too !
The 3 mistakes of my life:
1. Reading Half Girlfriend
2. Reading One Indian Girl
3. Reading One Arranged Murder
One Indian girl was not that bad...
Lol😂😂😂
i just completed the girl in room 105 and though it bored me for the first half later i kind of liked and now i was hoping to read one arranged murder will you suggest me to go ahead??
@@vivreddy5703 The girl on the train... I have some mystery and suspense recommendation do you need some?
@@lmaosusbaka yeah!! please i need some
The first english book I bought was Half Girlfriend. Lmao. Bhagat doesn't write for the sake of writing, he writes so that another typical bollywood movie can be made from that story.
You should have also included another Chetan Bhagat's book that is One Indian Girl. I almost thought of feeding that book to a cow. It was soo bad.
I didnt read it.
I relate to you. Damn, he said the theme was feminism. But where the Fuck was the 'feminism'?
Me too!
Soo true...
me too
1. To all the boys I've loved before
2. All the bright places
3. The fault in our stars
4. Insurgent
Indian Books:
5. Half-Girlfriend
6. I too had a love story
7. Everyone has a story
The fault in our stars is my favorite book!!! Well, I respect your opinions.
Thanks dear. John Green is my role model though! He has written better books 😊
@@thehellyblog which is your favorite?
Also the editing in this video was really nice. Perfectly placed
Thanks := :) :p
+Sandy Biswas 😂😂the trauma is real...btw you know the next part's gonna be darker (as rumored)
The fault in our stars was a beautiful book. I just loved all those parts in the book that made me stop reading and think, like Oblivion, being a grenade, not having to leave behind a legacy, pain demands to be felt, etc. Its one of my favourite books not because of the whole boy-meets-girl-and-one-of-them-dies plot but because of how beautifully their stories were written.
The part of your video that i absolutely did not agree with was what you said about All the bright places. It wasn't like TFioS at all. It helped a lot of people with mental illnesses. If you don't have any, you probably won't relate to the book, but if you do, you'll understand that the book is brilliantly written and very educational.
This was a long comment, so thank you for reading it to the end.
It's okay to differ, I am glad you put out your opinion as well.
Agreed
Oh my God I feel the same about fault in our stars. Finally somebody I could relate with, because I was the only odd one out among everyone else who was raving about this book.BTW great job with the channel. I wish you all the best!
This is the first time I am accepting that I DID NOT LIKE the fault in our stars!! Thank u Helly for giving me the courage to speak my heart out!!!😂😂😂
Haha dont worry.
Helly hahaha😂😂 till yesterday I had to pretend that I liked the book. But to be honest even paper towns is better(though not great) than The Fault in our stars.
I was about to buy the book but before that I watched the movie and I dropped the plan ..... So I hv not read it and I am for sure not reading it 😄😄
Isle Apluta I agree with you🤣😂
Isle Apluta movie was good
I think what your trying to say was 'looks can be deceiving' hahaha.... I understand everyone is entitled to their opinion but I disagree about your opinion on John Green's 'The fault in our stars.'
Yeah.. I agree, John green's books have some boring plots.. But in overall perspective, he is a great writer. He writes incredible stories that are really reliable. To be fair, "The fault in our stars" is one of the greatest books in YA genre... I always amazed by the way he writes and the words he chooses are so meticulously chosen...!!!!
You mentioning "some boring plots" gave me a very different perspective about his books. He is one of my most fav authors, but your opinion was useful. Thanks.
P.S.: I want to add some positive comment about JG, but I don't need to
The fact is, new readers like stories with stories and when you become an avid reader, you start to look up into the writing style plot and characters, the way they influence you. So basically I being an teenager read all of these and liked it. But when I turn back into those pages I wouldn't like it.
I think fault in our Stars is a good read & it has more than just the ending...the egg throwing part...we don't need thousand people to like us & the Metaphor part is great ...The book has a great story...i really like the "little things" that the author potraits ..apart from the ending
অনেকটা যেমন সে গন্তব্য নয় রাস্তা ভালোবাসের মতো ব্যাপার 😅 ।।
Yes i do agree. If it didnt ebd that way i must've loved it
Omg ! The ending was the most beautiful part of the book although I cried the hell out of my self !
The ending was showing the irony in case u didn't understand of the book that hazle was reading
Akanksha singh. Iagree. I thought the ending was just beautifully written. I just wish An Imperial Affliction was real. I'm sure i would've loved it.
Book ta kintu actually joss chilo
Sushovan Paul true I agree with you
So weird, you included" the boys i've loved before" in this video as well as in the recent one where you mention the books which have been adapted into awesome movies. The second book of this series is amazing. The first is good too though the second one is just superb....🥰🥰
Half girlfriend is the worst book...but all of my friends liked it...heck..
Btw, I too had a love story is good for someone who has no clue that the main character can die, like never read or watched Fault in our stars. If I remember correctly the name of girl was Khushi. And guy was the writer himself. Maybe a good change for people who only read indian easy-to-read novels
I totally agree with you about Fault in our Stars because the story becomes predictable after half read and every sentence said by Augustus looks like rehearsed and I didn't feel the connection with the characters while reading. My friend was like so shocked that I did not like fault in our Stars but hey that's my personal opinion. John Green is not for everyone I guess!
I felt the same way.Very predictable plot .Maybe it has to do with already being exposed to same kind of theme in movies and other books .
Okay....what I want to tell is Jenny Han's book To All the boys I've loved before was not about 3 girls falling in love with the same guy....it was about Lara Jean and Peter Kavinsky falling in love....it's a series of 3 books.....give them a try
Thank you for saying it 😂😂😂😂
The fault in our stars was a bit less than expectations
Yep, thats the issue
vishal jha that's true
vishal jha i just loved the way he introduced a character peter van huston. Which seems so real that i end up googling it. Lol. N guess what i whout a article by john green in which he describes about peter van huston. U guys probably look at that.
I loved that book
Half girlfriend was really very clichéd 😂😂
And dont forget the bill gates bullshit
@@jaideepsingh4395,lol.I liked it the first time
When she said "I only bought this book because I liked the cover and you know that famous proverb that looks can be deceptive," I thought she would say that don't judge a book by its cover. She really missed a good chance.....oh girl future of you being a good writer seems bleak.
🤣🤣
Wait what?!! All the Bright Places is a copy of Fault in our stars!! Well first of all I know art is subjective so I don't wanna talk about how three of my favourite reads appeared on this list back to back. But to call All the Bright Places a copy of The Fault in our stars is a really lame statement. Okay, thry both are a boy meet girl stories concerning a lot about death but then every other coming of age story is a copy of one another. In YA fiction the storyline is a mere vessel to show journey and change in outlook of its characters, being a teenager it only enhances your vision. So I think, ATBT and TFIOS both convey a very different message. And ATBT really made me realise i too was suffering from bipolar symptoms
Exactly? ATBT was so damned real! And TFIOS is a very intelligent book.
You just gained yourself a subscriber
Helly I read fault in our stars and I too had a love story and it’s my personal experience that these books are the best read ever in my reading journey.
I desperately wanted to buy All the Bright places but after you said its like fault in our stars( which is the only book I never completed reading even after buying) I totally lost my interest...thanks to you
OMG PREACH GIRL!!! your description for all the bright places is on point. like seriously . i cannot agree more!
Phrase is "don't judge book by its cover."
Story looks like Ekta's tv Shows.
You are totally right about divergent series...... Divergent was nice....but I left insurgent mid way!!!! Couldn't read it afer that.
I liked the book "To all the boys I have loved before". I do agree it is odd for the fact of all three sisters falling for the same guy like there are no other guys in the world. Though I relate with the main lead is that she was a reader and to top that she was afraid to drive. And I loved the fluffy feeling that the book gave me when I read.
And I totally agree with "Insurgent". It was a total drag for the story. And for "Allegiant", I hate the ending of it.
And totally hate Everyone has a story. It is in the top of my most hated books. A book about a story doesnt have a story of itself. How ironic.
"The fault in our stars " is one of my favorite book.
I like the way u stand by ur opinion but I disagree on the fault in ur stars review... there is a famous proverb " its not the destination but the journey that matters". The book is not a suspense thriller about whether hero lives or dies. It's in the small small things along that journey to deathbed that matters & John green' S genius dialog can make anyone cry..
Nice video Helly....!!
Have you read Sacred Games ?
If yes, then is it worth the time ? Since it's almost a 1000 page book
Have you read Will Grayson, Will Grayson by John Green and David Levithan?
No, why ? Similar or not?
It's not similar, but it's really cute :D
It is cute. Tooo cute.
I am a hard core reader and I definitely recommend you Will Grayson Will Grayson
Omg I read that book it was so funny and I loved it.
This camera angle is much better. We get to see the shelf clearly ;)
Maybe i should use this angle always
I truly agree with your views on Divergent series. Only the first one was good. Insurgent was worst. I had even written a letter to the writer stating that she doesn't have the power to play with the emotions of the reader! But I was in love with Four😂
Allegiant is even worse than insurgent
Also, for the record it's ay-pito-me (epitome)
Oops
I stopped reading it halfway, it was that boring
@@nishthagupta1357 yeah me too i didn't like it at all
I wish I could be so fluent like you.
Your videos make me respect you. Your channel is growing and will go long way ahead. Wish you all the best 😊
Well if you have read To All The Boys I Loved Before, that's not the plot at all, LJ was best friends with Josh (btw he as their neighbour), but her sister Margot started dating him, and they break up in the movie, and her younger sister much liked him like as a neighbour as you are a fan of an adult in your neighbour. It wasn't the main plot at all if you have understood the book a little bit also.
I really love ur attitude!You seem like a person who would fun to have around
You did total justice to Everyone has a story. Unfortunately, I have a copy of it😿.
I read I TOO HAD A LOVE STORY in my early teen age and I loved the book just because it was romantic but now my opinion is contradictory as I am not gonna read a book which is too predictable ...
TBH I did not like 13 reasons why for some reason because the ending was highly abrupt, somehow it didn't make fucking sense and an alternate ending was possible.
Cool name you got there.
Great honest video. You are doing a great work. Keep it up. 👍👍👍
To me even Fault in our Stars seems like rip off from A walk to remember because it has big symbolic gesture to their lover like with eulogy and the wedding...even A walk to remember is a total rip off from Love Story by Eric Segal
Omg now that you mention it!
Congaculation helly comes up 200k subscribers in your youtube channel,,,,,☺☺
Your current communication is better than prior!
Everyone has a story I ordered yesterday. Cancelling it. Thanks
"The Sialkot Saga by Ashwin Sanghi". I love his books and I'm still a huge fan but I was really disappointed when I read this book. Firstly, the plot was heavily lifted from Kane & Abel by Jeffrey Archer, so no points for originality. Secondly, it seemed that the book was jumping from one scheme to another and both men trying to over smart each other which is fine but the way it was told seemed to break the flow, for me atleast. Still I would have given it 4 stars had it not been for the climax which was completely bizarre. Not to give out any spoilers but had it been a mythological thriller, I would have absolutely loved it but after getting a "Kane & Abel" feel throughout the book, throwing THAT climax did not work for me. In the end I just wanted to finish the book only because I had already begun reading it and was almost at the end. Still I am a huge fan and have just bought Keepers of the Kalachakra. I hope this one is as good as Chanakya's Chant and Krishna Key, the reason why I became Ashwin Sanghi's fan.
Yes John Green does it with deaths Fault in our stars was great but it's okay I respect your opinion Happy New year ❤
i loved all the bright places....
Helly di......John Green also has a book called "Paper Town" and my friends told me its good to read ......if you tell me whether you liked it.....then maybe I will get a copy!!because I love books too and I have exactly similar thoughts about some books that you spoke about.
Total agreement on the Insurgent review! Divergent was so damn good, but then Insurgent felt kind of...like a filler? And allegiant was just to end it all.
i love what you do helly, if you dont mind me saying so, i think you need to change your video background . find a park, pretty walls, restaurant , other interesting spots . :) xoxo thank you for daily inspiration :) helly
No money!
The Kite Runner- I won't say that I did not like this book ,but Somehow I feel the ending of this book was quite dramatic. How Amir goes to Taliban camp and rescues the child that doesn't really go with the entire build up of the book. The suicide attempt of the child - ugh I didn't really get the ending.
It was so hard for me to finish this book and it was the ending that made it feel like
It's well since it end well.
That's how I felt.
🙂
I like fault in our stars, its one of my favourite.
Hi Helly thanks for your nice videos and recommendations to all book lovers
Most of the English books written by Indian writers are very bad actually. I mean just think Cb, dd... All are very bad writers 😅
Also now when I think about TFIOS, I have so many mixed feelings about it. Like I don't like Gus's character at all. But, when I first read it, my little heart got overwhelmed. Maybe the book can be predictable but still I think it has so many different aspects to it and I like John's writing although some people argue that they are overly poetic and blah blah blah. But yeah the book gave me so much when I needed it, when I was depressed maybe. So,... Yeah.
And the last thing I wanna tell u Helly that his last book TATWD is pretty good actually. It's not the best book but it really portrays mental health in a very good way which I didn't see in any other books. And I think it's kind of the book that makes u think about your whole existence for an entire week or so. So, u should try it and Noone dies in it😉

Hey, you are amazing! So upfront, so bold... Superb! I do not like Sudeep Nagarkar's books at all. I read one of Durjoy the name of which I don't remember and left it midway. Couldn't handle it more. And Chetan has brought a mass revolution in the reading habits of Indians with his books replete with shitty plotlines, love sequences, sex, and everything that just appears inappropriate. Thanks for coming up with such amazing videos! :)
I didn't like durjoy much as well
You just expressed my thoughts.
I HATE Chetan bhagat and hate those person who compare chetan bhagat with rabindranath tagore
Sri Ghosh omg who dared to
I agre durjiy book was damn irritatiting ....he himself in a interviiew said that he just write any mess put a cover and sold ...i mean he himself agree that his books are shitty
Oh Half-Girlfriend! *sips tea*
You're doing Great Sweetie!
Has anyone read Veronica decided to Die?
I love Paulo Coelho but this one was something in which I was a bit disappointed. I mean I totally got what was he trying to convey but the entire plot was too boring and I couldn't really understand some of the parts. Don't get all furious, it was just my opinion.
Question, I don't read alot of YA but do all of them really end with one of them dying in the end? I've only heard of fault in our Stars and looking for Alaska ending that way.
Finally someone who has the same opinion as me
Hated Mocking Jay by Suzanne Collins(too much 'advertising',death, madness and a flop climax),The World After by Susan Ee,Durjoy Datt & Sudeep Nagarkar books(language🙁!,poor plot)
Have heard shit things about nagarkar. Never picking up
Helly These were gladly circulated in hostels... I can't believe people actually looove this crap😂
PS: I really like how you include movie scenes in your videos🎥
THE FAULT IN OUR STARS ...
I like the way you speak, it's gets so engaging with your audience
Sis, what do you think about the book "light from many lamp " please tell me
This was great!!
Love this channel!!🙂
I also didn't like TATBILB. I haven't read ATBP yet but I think the ending of TFIOS is what makes it so beautiful and special. So, maybe ur opinion on it is a bit shallow 😅 I loved reading divergent, I enjoyed only some scenes of insurgent and cringed at allegiant, especially it's ending 😑. Abt the Indian books u mentioned, I haven't even read one and I am so glad for it
I respect ur opinion, but honestly, I loved To all the boys I've loved before..I enjoyed the writing n the storyline pretty much..it's much better than the movie anyway
And pls hv a fact check: do all the 3 sisters fall for him? I don't think so :P
But Helly, u r a real motivator, love ur content, especially the way u speak!! Keep going!! 👍
Hey helly thank you for your youtube calnnel becose your youtub channel is very helpful for everyone student...
Biggest mistake of my life :
Reading " one arranged murder"
Hey Helly you saved my time and also gained a subscriber ,I accedently came here by searching review of " everyone has a story".. I downloaded it pdf version and after getting so much hate on this book now I am deleting it🤗🤗🤗🤗
I agree with you on the book review of " everyone has a story", I think it was kinda influenced by " life is what you make it" by preety Shenoy. the plot of the story is really monotonous and seems like written only for the sake of publishing a book . no depth at all
Hey helly did you read the adventures of rusty by ruskin bond it was the first book and i was 13 by that time and i really love it
I would like to recommend u a book which is written by a Kerala writer is "BURIED THOUGHTS " by Joseph anamkutty Jose ,he is a famous RJ in Kerala and it is very simple language ,it consists of short stories which all are his real life experiences .I assure you won't regeret after reading that...it's really worth the time..and one of my favrt books...
Hope u will post a review video after reading that
Everybody at my school was like crazy for this, The Fault in Our Stars, and you won't believe that I used to read it during my terminal exams because it made me feel that I was the loser who hadn't read it till then and when I finished it, I gave a false hope to my heart that, it was good, it's alright but like you, now that I think about it, I would have had scored better marks if I hadn't wasted my time reading it. The only thing which I liked about it was Shailene Woodley and Ansel Elgort's picture on the cover. The content was not at all my type.
I have seen people comparing it to A Walk to Remember by Nicholas Sparks because one of the protagonists dies due to cancer in both of 'em and if someone asked my opinion, even though I don't prefer Nicholas' works, I would still choose Walk to Remember.
Actually , I read 'the fault in our stars' recently .I liked it but the ending was not that much captivating..It should have been better.But I liked the message and the lucid language that is used in the book.I think that it is really easy to read the book . I agree with u that the book was predictable. But what I like the most about this book is certain quotes that are really heart touching and insightful . Various emotions that swirled through my mind when I read the book.. Even though I don't favour romantic books, I liked this one. The major takeaway that I did from this book is, this is the only moment that we own and we have to enjoy it as much as possible and everything in this world is temporary. But, as u said , many people don't like this book. Personally , I really liked the way all the characters have different touching stories to tell and the curiosities that arises in teenage minds and all .. anyway, I really like all your book reviews..keep going..It really helps me to pick the right books.❤️
I read I too had a love story..and it's just that..I liked the book and the ending was the best for me....❤️
@2:09 Powerpuff Girls reference 😂😂😂
Aan, I also want to read like u.... U r my inspiration look at that bookshelf that is exquisite...i too want such a collection of books
Do like if u agree
I like your videos and reviews but I actually liked Ravinder Singh’s book “ I too had a love story” . It is a true story of his life and his first book so I think you should not be so critical about the writing style😉
Axactly
Really
I have seen " The fault in our stars " movie and i liked it. Also," To all the boys i have loved before" is quite popular movie as well and i agree the plot is a little weird to some people and they like the movie just because of the cute cast.
I like I Too Had A Love Story because the his words created the feeling in me he was trying to incorporate...but the one book I wanted to like the whole time but couldn't was Your Dreams Are Mine Now, because the whole story was based on the girl and her family sacrifices and in the end she f**king died 😱 and the end felt so casual that one reading the end only couldn't believe such tragedy had happened just few chapters back
The way of expressing ur views is aweso...keep goin...success is comingggg....
Thanks a lot :)
Give a Try to The "turtles all the way down" by John green better than those worst books.
I would recommend to read and review some real literature. Books by authors like Emily Bronté Charles Dickens, Jane Austen, Thomas Hardy and others 😄
A popular book that I didn’t like was Murakami’s Kafka on the shore. A lot of people recommend me that book, but I didn’t like the conclusion, if there was any😅
I too had love story is my favorite book... 😒😒😒😒😒 second part was boring I think 😓
I know! But everyone is different
every day learning yah for me too...i found i too had a love story more touchy than the 2nd one...but as she said...everyone has diff opinion
U haven't read good books yet
Yes, the second part was boring.
I too had a love story is an awesone book
Durjoy Dutta's You were my crush was quite cringeworthy yaar
Yes! There are some books which are famous, but non deserving. I also ask qsns to myself after reading every one has a story, why it is so famous now i get relief after watching this vdo.. Thanx..... I am also going to publish my 1st book.... I hope it will not come in this category.....
In paper towns no one dies try it :-)
+Rishika Kumar ok next read. It better be good!
rêveur moonstruck Still better than The fault in our stars!!
Try Turtles All The Way Down and An Abundance of Katherines, they're great too!
Have u read kite runner?
First of all i think that every author has a unique way of writing and if a book gets popular it's probably because the readers have found it kind of different from other books. And because of that, saying two books are similar to each other is an insult to the writers. Writing is a brilliant talent which very few people are really good at it and by saying you find two different books from two different authors, it's just underestimating the authors and their work.
Second of all, if one out of million finds something popular not interesting, it doesn't make it "overrated" or "overhyped". You don't like it and it's ok. You're free to say your opinion about it. But you can't define it by your own opinion.
It's possible if we don't like what most of people like, and it's totally ok, but it doesn't mean that we have the right to "define" it with our words; especially when it's about other's belonging.
