My Top Book Series

Today let me talk about some things that are very dear to my heart; Book Series. I love book series because it gives you more of a chance to get to know the characters, and fall in love with them, and feel emotion-y over them. They give you the satisfaction that a stand alone novel JUST DOESN'T. Not to mention the fact that they look beautiful on bookshelves.




1. HARRY POTTER

Obviously the first one on the list, is Harry Potter, written by the INCREDIBLE J.K Rowling. Harry Potter was the first fandom I ever joined (if you don't count High School Musical) and I'll always love it. I get very upset when I remember that none of my friends have actually legitimately read the Harry Potter series, but at least most of them have seen the movies, I guess? I'm so grateful that I can at least fangirl about it with my online friends. Thank you, Bookstagram.


2. The Selection

If you haven't read my book review on The Selection, then you obviously don't know how much I love it. I'm literally obsessed with it. It was so painful having to wait 24 hours between The Selection and The Elite, and the last two books killed me. None of my friends have read this series either, so I rely on bookstagram to give me online friends who have read it, so I can talk to them about it.

3. Maximum Ride

I read these books when I was 10 (ish) and got really, really confused. I kept reading them, though, because they're awesome. I re-read them when I was about 12, and was slightly less confused. Despite their confusingness, I absolutely adore this series, and highly recommend it. Again,none of my friends have read this series. I REALLY NEED NEW FRIENDS. I'm kidding. I love you guys <3



4. The Hunger Games

Aah, another fandom. I love The Hunger Games books, and don't understand how anyone could dislike them. They are incredible, and life changing. Obviously not as good as Harry Potter, but still. One of my best friends has just joined The Hunger Games fandom and now I have someone to talk to about one of my favourite series! Woohoo! And to answer your question; I'm team Gale, because if Katniss has Gale then I can have Peeta.

5. Daughters of the Sea

I started this series when I was obsessed with the Guargians of Ga'hoole series, by Kathryn Lasky, and decided to read some more of her books. When I started the series, Hannah, the first book had just been released.  A few years on,  the fourth book was released in May or June this year. That meant I had to wait a YEAR AND A HALF between Lucy, and The Crossing, and I died.

6. The Chocolate Box Girls

Personally. I don't think I'll ever be too old for Cathy Cassidy's books. I only got hooked on them when I was 12, and read all of her books in the time span of a couple of months. The first Chocolate Box book I read, was Summer's Dream, and I've read all (except for Fortune Cookie) since. Cathy is awesome and I just love her.
