There are so many wonderful book series out there but they all have a "last" book. I suppose the author must want to do other things with their life, but still.......I also love the Little House series, Anne of Green Gables, all of Jane Austen's works, although not really a series, I do consider them a series of portraits of English life and culture in the 1800s, Twilight and a few new series I've happened upon lately as I can't just keep rereading my favorites. A great way to find new book suggestions is signing up for a profile on goodreads.com. It's fun to see what everyone else is interested in and find those "kindred spirits" who enjoy the same type of literature as I do.
Whatever you like to read, an ending is always inevitable. I suppose if there wasn't an ending, however disappointing, I'd never be able to pull myself back to reality.
What are some of your favorite series of books?
I know I am such a nerd, but I'm crazy about the Horatio Hornblower series. I own all eleven of them, and like you, was so sad when the last book was "over".
ReplyDeleteLOVE all of your faves, also, Seventh Son by Orson Scott Card is a great one. Oh, and Eragon, and Dragon Riders of Pern, and Percy Jackson, and Hunger Games, and I'm sure I could go on forever. Nice post Kim!
