I thought it would be fun to go over some old books that I've read, for now I think I'll stick to series.
One of my favourites is of course Harry Potter, I started to read them once the 3rd book had been released, or was it the fourth? It goes without saying that I just about devoured the first book and then everyone following it. Then when I heard movies were coming out I almost died. Which reminds me how darn excited I am for the second part to the last movie, I sure hope they do it justice. They tend to cut out a lot of things that would be amazing and manipulate the story line for who knows that reason. Anywho in summary, excited to see!
Deathnote is an amazing series, it's a manga and there are only 12 of them. Absolutely spectacular, the story is so well written I wish it were a full sized book. Although it's quite surprising how much detail they can go into with a whole bunch of pictures everywhere. I've yet to watch the entire anime, it's pretty much the exact same thing just animated lol Oh and I have watched the first part to the live action version, that was pretty wicked. I still have to get my hands on the second part.
The Bartimaeus Trilogy is another great series. It follows this young magician named Nathaniel, he summons this old wise crackin' daemon named Bartimaeus, the whole book has footnotes of this guy's real thoughts, totally hilarious. There is a fourth book I just found out about that I am so excited to read, pure Bartimaeus heaven.
The House of Night series, it's not so great. Truly it's a guilty pleasure to say the least, on a birthday a friend bought me the first book, being the book freak that I am I decided well since I have the first I have to get the second. Unbeknown to me at the time this darn thing turned into I believe 8books? It's craziness, I don't think they are anywhere near the ending of the series either, so here I am buying all these mediocre books just to have the full series. Seriously sometimes I believe I'm insane, on the bright side it's kinda hilarious how terrible these books are, so it's not all bad.
The Blue Bloods novels are really good, they're an upgrade of the house of night series in a nutshell. Likable characters, good plot, interesting twists, writing style is average pretty much a good quick read. Nice breakup between intense science books.
Lastly I have Vampire Diaries, I actually really liked this series, then when the TV show came out oh man. Totally different than the way the books came out to me, then out of nowhere a slew of Vampire Diaries books came out. I'm not even going to bother to read them, regardless of my "I like to have the whole series" mentality.
Well that's pretty much each for now,
Tasha xoxo
