Books you hated to finish.

You know those books. The books that you read and you get close to the end and you go "No! I don't want it to end!" or "No! No! I can tell my fave character's going to die!" but you can't put it down.

The final book of the lioness quartet by Tamora pierce. Oooooooooh, it had BOTH of those going for it. I cried like a freaking BABY when two of my fave charras died. Sure I secretly hated one of them for bing so STUPID but the love another character had for them made me like them.

Talion: Revenant by Michael A. Stackpole, I will NOT stop reccomending this book. It is my favourite book and hasn't come close to being knocked from it's pedistal. Every time I read it I don't want the book to end because I want MORE Nolan ra Sinjaria (I bet I got that wrong! ) and more Marana, Jevin and the rest. This book is also an inspiration for the Amaranthan names system when I take a closer look at it. I love this book and though I know the ending I keep hoping that if I read it enough more will magically appear.

Ah yes, I can tell you I am almost always torn as to whether I want to finish reading most books. Particularly in series like Malazan Book of the Fallen (I can't stop recommending those books) Where everything is awesome and the many interwoven plots grab you by the throat and are not letting go. I get torn between wanting to find out what happens and the disappointment as I finish the book and now have to wait another year or so before the next one is released.

I have come to accept that characters I like in the book, die. Quite a lot. although sometimes they make comebacks many awesome people don't.

I'm going to, one again, plug the Saga of the Noble Dead by Barb & J.C. Hendee. I have the tendency to knock each book off within a weekend because I will sit down and READ, and do nothing else. There has been NO book (not even the majestically awesome Talion) that I've been able to do that with since Harry Potter.

I'm really pissed that I haven't been able to find the second-to-last book, Rebel Fay, in stores, because that's the next one I need to read. I bought the last book (Child of a Dead God) in hardcover, because it was on shelves at Borders about four or five weeks before its release date and I couldn't pass it up. But, that book is tempting me like hell to read it but I don't want to without reading Rebel Fay first.

Oh, like I mentioned earlier, Harry Potter. It's going to seem extremely fanboyish, extremely bandwagon-y, and extremely teenybopper-ish, but this series honestly means the world to me. I started reading when the first book came out, and I grew up with the characters. I'm not going to get into why the series actually means so much to me, but let me just say those books were there when nothing or no one else was.

Lol, no need to worry about that. The chronicals of narnia are books I still love. They were one of the first fantasy books I read. I can't say I don't want them to end until the last book, but they are still awesome.
Especially voyage of the dawn treadder. I also like The prince and the silver chair.
And, I BET I messed up the names. XD
As for bandwagon, I think you read it before then. And you know what? there's nothing wrong with joining a bandwagon! It could be fun like the DA pixel ID bandwagon!

Well, considering I started pretty much around the time the first one came out in the US, yeah, I started reading it before the bandwagon went full speed.

But, that doesn't stop me from SOUNDING like I'm on the bandwagon.

Lol, as stated, nothing wrong about being a part of a band wagon. Just because something's popular doesn't mean you can't like it. XD If people want to believe you just jumped on because it's popular, let them. Their oppinion doesn't matter. *nods*
