Day 04 - Your favorite book or series ever
Oh, dear. My favorite ever book is The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde. This is so true that I named one of my cats Dorian Gray. He's a fop, too, so...
Favorite series has to be Harry Potter AND Lord of the Rings. Don't make me chose between them.
Day 05 - A book or series you hate
Singular book I hate: The Sicilian Amulet by Jo Manning. That crap makes the Twilight series look like a friggin masterpiece.
Series... Oddly enough, it's not Twilight. Though I used to like Twilight, I started despising it in an ever growing way about a year or so ago. Now I can barely stand to hear how Bella is such a strong female character and Edward is so wonderful without wanting to poison the speaker. Having written this, I dislike the House of Night series more. "Why", you ask? Because Twilight is over. (Hopefully) No other Twilight book will be added to the "saga". House of Night just keeps going and going and going and going... You get the point. There's a lot to be said about a bad series that has the sense to end.
