Worst Series Enders

This one is really hard! First three are just bad, last two were awful but i really liked them.

1. Reached: I couldn't even finish it
2. Rebel: I didn't exactly love the first one reboot either but rebel, ugh ugh
3. Into the Still Blue: stuff just got weird
- - -
4. Allegiant. I loved the fact that it was a horrible thing at the end. But at the same time it was awful reading it. So I loved it as an end, but it was painful.
5. Champion is the same as Allegiant-> It broke my heart but I liked it

Bookish Habits

1. I take the book everywhere! Even when I know I won't be able to read while going somewhere/doing something
2. I tend to pause at moments in which I just can't handle it. I pause and think. Continue and pause. Again. And again.
3. If too many (more than 3) people are introduced between a couple pages I need to write them all donw (+their roles)... My memory is that lovely.
4. I can't drink or eat anything whilst reading. Anything. Ridiculous right?
5. I change my position pretty much every 30 pages

Graphic Novels

Opinion

At the end of last year I started getting into Grpahic Novels. Before that I had never read one so I thought it was time. I read 10 of them-some were adaptions from books and some were graphic novels originally.

I enjoyed both very much and the art was VeRy nicely done. Though about the ones that were meant as novels first: If you rwondering how it compares to the original text it really depends on who made it. I read most of the books they were based on and I found that they were very loyal to them.

They are short and so, perfect for a rainy day indoors. In any case I very much recommend you picking up a graphic novel, and enjoy :)
Do you guys want some faves? Do tell.
