Seven out of the ten books in the series are right at the top of my list: Gardens of the Moon / Deadhouse Gates / Memories of Ice / House of Chains / Midnight Tides / The Bonehunters / Toll the Hounds.The Belgariad - David Eddings - this was the series that introduced me to the fantasy genre.

frankie Posted December 31, 2014 Author Share Posted December 31, 2014 (edited) I started this 30 Books thingy some years ago but I never finished it. Actually I think I started doing it on two different occasions ... As it's the Easter holidays and I have no plans for the weekend, and as it's the read-a-thon weekend, I thought another bookish activity might be fun. To take a little break from reading. Here's the thingy: Day 01 – Best book you read last year - A Full Man by Tom Wolfe (9.4.2015)Day 02 – A book that you’ve read more than 3 times - various (9.4.2015)Day 03 – Your favourite series - Dexter (10.4.2015)Day 04 – Favourite book of your favourite series - Dexter Is Delicious (10.4.2015)Day 05 – A book that makes you happy - Missu löytää ratkaisun (10.4.2015)Day 06 – A book that makes you sad - A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens (12.4.2015)Day 07 – Most underrated book - Forrest Gump by Winstom Groom (14.4.2015)Day 08 – Most overrated book - The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho (11.5.2015)Day 09 – A book you thought you wouldn’t like but ended up loving - The Unknown Soldier by Väinö Linna (11.5.2015)Day 10 – Favourite classic book - A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens (12.5.2015)Day 11 – A book you hated - Tess of the D'Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy (13.5.2015)Day 12 – A book you used to love but don’t anymore - A Home at the End of the World by Michael Cunningham (15.5.2015)Day 13 – Your favourite writer - Augusten Burroughs (15.5.2015)Day 14 – Favourite book of your favourite writer A Wolf at the Table (6.11.2015)Day 15 – Favourite male character - Snape and Sydney Carton (6.11.2015)Day 16 – Favourite female character - Anastasia Krupnik (6.11.2015)Day 17 – Favourite quote from your favourite book - The Quote (6.11.2015)Day 18 – A book that disappointed you - The Alchemist, The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon, The Optimist's Daughter (8.12.2015) Day 19 – Favourite book turned into a movie - Perfume by Patrick Süskind (8.12.2015)Day 20 – Favourite romance book - Bridget Jones diaries (8.12.2015)Day 21 – Favourite book from your childhoodDay 22 – Favourite book you ownDay 23 – A book you wanted to read for a long time but still haven’tDay 24 – A book that you wish more people would’ve readDay 25 – A character who you can relate to the mostDay 26 – A book that changed your opinion about somethingDay 27 – The most surprising plot twist or endingDay 28 – Favourite titleDay 29 – A book everyone hated but you likedDay 30 – Your favourite book of all time Third time's the charm, aye?

frankie Posted December 31, 2014 Author Share Posted December 31, 2014 That's it, I think I'm up for business in 2015! I hope you all have a great reading year, and a wonderful year in other respects, too I've ditched a few challenges for the time being, but I'm still going on strong with the 1001 Must Read -books challenge and the Rory books challenge (meaning those are the ones I'll always have on my reading log, no matter what else comes and goes). There are still a few others, too. I don't really have any aims for this year, because I had such a great reading year in 2014 and somehow it feels I would be greedy to set many new goals for this year and then hope I could reach them, too The only thing I shall aim for is to read 100 books, but as always, I won't be bothered if I don't manage it.

BSchultz19 Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 You have so many interesting reads planned for yourself!! I hope you have a great reading year I've looked at the 50 most challenging reads list before but I never noticed that Johnny Got His Gun was on there. I read the blurb about that book a couple days ago and was really intrigued. Maybe I will have to buy and read it now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobblybear Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 So many books! (and that puppy is gorgeous!) Some comments: The Crow Road - Iain Banks. You know my thoughts about this one. (push it to the bottom of your TBR pile). A Short History of Nearly Everything - Bill Bryson. Loved this book. I have read it a couple of times, and there's always something new to be found, or some very interesting bit of trivia. I almost found it too full of interesting bits. I must give that a re-read again. The Pillars of the Earth - Ken Follett. Another favourite of mine, and one of the first historical fiction books I read. I should read it again, actually, as I've forgotten a lot of the detail. The Thoughts and Happenings of Wilfred Price, Purveyor of Superior Funerals - Wendy Jones. I had mixed feelings about this. The title led me to believe it would be a light-hearted almost comedic novel, but that is very far from the truth. There are some very, very dark moments in it. I thought the ending was unresolved, but apparently there is a sequel out. The Rosary Girls and The Skin Gods - Richard Montanari. These are fast-paced and decent thrillers, well worth reading. Afterwards - Rosamund Lupton. I finished this last month, but haven't posted a review of it yet. I thought it was a very good and original read. Are You There, God? It's Me Margaret - Judy Blume. Staple reading for every young girl going through puberty. It's a bit dated, but still enjoyed it when I re-read it a couple of years ago. Capital - John Lanchester. I really enjoyed this one; it was one of my favourite reads of 2014. Hope you have a great reading year, Frankie! You certainly have a lot of books to keep you busy!
