This week's question is: Have you ever broken up with a series? If so, which one and why?
Yes, unfortunately. A few series I have a on-again-off-again relationship with. One of those would be the House of Night books by P.C. Cast. I really loved the first few books and then I got tired of the main character. I really want to figure out how these books play out so after they are all complete I will probably buy the rest of them and read them. Another is the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich. I love these books, so I didn't stop reading them because I was not enjoying them, but as of right now there are 19 books out! That's a lot of books. I plan on reading them all eventually but after reading 11 1/2 in a row, I needed to take a break and see other people.
Once upon a time, I was in a very committed relationship with the Twilight series by Stephanie Meyer. I read all the books and as I finished each book, I got a little more depressed. This relationship did not end well. Me and Breaking Dawn are not on speaking terms. This book was terrible, and because of it I had to give up my love for this series and explore all the other fish in the sea, there has to be better out there!
What series have you had to break up with?
(This is totally random... but I have a giveaway for an awesome book that ends Friday night! Go check it out HERE!)

A lot of people have listed the House of Night series, so I definitely won't be reading it! I was okay with Twilight, but I really didn't like the ending of book 4, so I feel your pain. Following via Bloglovin'. Happy Friday! :D

I quit the House of Night series too after 2 books, it became pretty boring after that.. PS: new follower on bloglovin!

I haven't even started the HON series, simply because I've seen so many poor reviews of it. I don't think it would work for me. I did, however, try the SHIVER series when I first started blogging, and I hated it. I definitely broke up with that series, and I also broke up with the TWILIGHT series and the MORTAL INSTRUMENTS series (I know - I'm in the minority with that one).

House of Night I definitely won't pick up anytime soon cause it seems so tiring for some reason, maybe cause of all the releases :(
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!

House of Night seems to be a VERY popular answer today. Hopping back thru. New follower!
ReplyDeleteHey Amber! I actually liked House of Night. But it's pretty famous this night. It's my kind of read when I don't want anything light or heavy. I don't know. I seem to enjoy it anyway. ;) Thanks for hopping my FF.
