FF 2012 Feature & Follow #91
Q: Have you ever bought a book BECAUSE of a bad review?
A: I can't say that I have. I've gotten books for review that have had bad reviews, and I have enjoyed them. But I have yet to buy one because of a bad rep.

Be sure to leave your link so I can hop back!

Happy Hopping!



Q: Book Series Finales: Which book, from any series has been your favorite ending? What about your least favorite ending?

A: For my favourite, I have to go back to the books that reignited my love for reading. The Twilight Saga. A lot of people I talk to didn't like Breaking Dawn but really loved it, and I loved how the book ended!

As for my least favourite series ending, I'll have to say The Vampire Diaries. Loved the books, just wasn't a fan of the ending. I won't go into details because I don't want to ruin anything for people who have yet to read it :)

What about you?

  6. I still haven't finished the VA series, because the books sort of.. got worse and worse for me. BUT I also read them in German and somehow the translations always seem worse than the originals. oô

  9. new follower here =)

    My Answer: No, Reviews matter a lot to me. Not unless the book became controversial that I would really feel the need to read that book.

  15. I loved the Braking Dawn too. To me it's the best of all 4 books. There was so much happening, the action was interesting and the ending was epic.
