Algerian Bookworms discussion

I actually picked this tag for the same reasons xD
for me I think HP had me feeling all of these except for disgust but I won't choose for the sake of variety
1 Joy > It always makes me happy when I see someone sets himself free from the burdings of society and be who he really is. In this novel we follow this clumsy girl who tries to satisfy everyone always scared n weak but in the end she becomes something else. Also the one we're all currently reading xD The Hobbit this one just gives me warmth for some reason!
2 Disgust for this one I'd go for Yes please! It's unbearable! and definitely for older women
3 Fear > 1984 by george orwell this one wasn't scary in the way horror movies are but terrifying in the way of "loosing humanity".
4 Sadness >بينما ينام العالم God I cried so hard at this to the point where my eyes were hurting me
Palestine! do I need to say more
5> Anger > زوجتي من الجن I hate how I wasted my precious time on something like this
(Ps: sorry if there's any grammar or spelling mistakes )

You should give it a try you might enjoy it, we all have different tastes my cousine loved it aswell but I just hated it ,it was too fantastic for me it was again in my opinion very immiture and annoying. But you should make you're own opinion of it

Oh I forgot to mentionJoy was for Girl-online

1)JOY – WHICH BOOK BRINGS YOU THE MOST JOY?
Nevernight by Jay Kristoff. It’s not only that I both love and hate this book, it’s also that I love the way I hate it and hate the way I love it. This book has the ability to change my mood no mater of what.

2)DISGUST – WHICH BOOK GROSSED YOU OUT THE MOST?
A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas. I just couldn’t, I hoped I’ll like it, every page I hoped things would be better but I reached the end of the book and nothing was better.

3)FEAR – WHICH BOOK SCARED YOU MORE THAN ANYTHING?
I don’t think any book scared me, there’s only the fear of losing my favorite character, besides that not really, a lot of books does that but if I had to choose one it's The Dream Thieves by Maggie Stiefvater.

4)SADNESS – WHICH BOOK MADE YOU CRY THE HARDEST?
A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness. Nothing beats this book in this category for me.

5)ANGER – WHICH BOOK PISSED YOU OFF?
The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger. This book was pure agony, I couldn’t take it, sometimes I would yell at it, I wanted to go inside this book and scream all my rage on Holden.

That was fun, I can't wait to hear yours guys.

I know, I know, I'm being really hash on ACOMAF but that's only because of the high expectations I had for it, there are other bad books I've read that could be there instead of ACOMAF but I didn't expect much of them.

Great TAG idea! Here we go,

1)JOY – WHICH BOOK BRINGS YOU THE MOST JOY?
L'écrivain by Yasmina Khadra. It may not be the happiest book ever, but I relate so much in different contests with Little Mohammed Mouleshoul (the writer aka the narrator himself). We may not have lived the same things in the same periods, but, his thoughts at that age were mine at some point and it mad me so excited and happy to know that there IS people who share the same point of views of me of certain things! Really, adored reading that simple yet meaningful autobiographical book.

2)DISGUST – WHICH BOOK GROSSED YOU OUT THE MOST?
Flowers of Evil, Volume 1 by Shuzo Oshimi. It may be a Manga but it's still sorted as a book, right? It's the first thing that comes to my mind when "Disgust" is evoked. I don't know if I didn't ""understand"" the story but I just couldn't stand neither the plot, nor the characters and I tried not to drop it at an early stage but I just couldn't, it made me vomit.

3)FEAR – WHICH BOOK SCARED YOU MORE THAN ANYTHING?
The Road by Cormac McCarthy. It didn't scare me in a "Stephen King" kind of horrific scaring. It scared me of trusting people, of losing loved ones, of living in a future I don't belong to. That book is really powerful and has some deep lessons in it. It really gave me chills at times.

4)SADNESS – WHICH BOOK MADE YOU CRY THE HARDEST?
Between L'Assomoir by Émile Zola and Swallows of Kabul by Yasmina Khadra, I don't know which one made me shed more tears. They both are realistic, they both are about oppressed people in different places and different situations. I mean Zola don't need no introduction with his style that seems to be talking to you personally, and Khadra got that "plume" that transports you completely out of your comfort zone and hits you, caresses you, hits you again, makes you sob, then kisses you, and it goes back again, especially with this book. Twp really dramatic, wretched and pitiful novels and I can't chose one TBH.

5)ANGER – WHICH BOOK PISSED YOU OFF?
Swallows of Kabul by Yasmina Khadra, again. Man, this book! It pissed me off. Not in a bad way, either. I mean, it's my favorite book. But, I was so angry at humans, at wrong interpretations of my religion, of Talibans. Angry at the world for shutting up while innocent people are being murdered freely. Angry FOR humanity. Angry at me for not being able to do anything about it yet.

Why thank you! Well, he is indeed my favorite author (along with Zola) and I'm really glad I made you want to read some of his books! You got to check them out and I would recommend "The Attack" as a first time. I hope you'll like it!
