It's time for Feature and Follow Friday. This meme is hosted by Alison can read and Parajunkie.

Today's question is:
Q: Have you broken up with a series? If so which one and why

A: I really try to read the whole serie even if after a few books I don't like it anymore. But sometimes I really can't stand this serie and I broke up with them. One of these serie, I think there are more people who didn't finish them, is The house of night series by pc and kristin cast.
This was one of the first series I ever read and I am very sorry I don't like this serie but after reading a lot of other series I know why.

How about you? Did you broke op with a serie?

Finished series

Hi everyone.

Do you hate it just like me when you read a book and you would wait another year for the next in the serie to get published?
Hate is not the good word but I really don't like it. That's why sometimes I don't even start with the serie until it is finished.
And thats why I also got a quistion for you.
I really want to read a great and awesome fantasy serie (or an awesome stand alone) that is already finished. So that I don't have to wait a long time to read the next. Hope you got some great ideas for me :D

I can give you a list with series I read and are finished (the most of you have read them but I hope that I can help you guys who didn't read some of these):

- Nocturne City by Caitlin Kittredge (adult)
- Parasol Protectorate by Gail Carriger (adult)
- Immortal Beloved by Cate Tiernan (adult)
- Revenants by Amy Plum (YA)
- Soul Screamers by Rachel Vincent (YA)
- Need by Carrie Jones (YA)
- Repossession by Sam Hawksmoor (YA)
- Twilight by Stephenie Meyer (YA)
- Fallen by Lauren Kate (YA)
- Blue Bloods by Melissa de la Cruz (YA)

Working It Out

A chance encounter . . . 

Grace Warren's life is safe and predictable—exactly the way she likes it. But when she gets roped into going to an auction to help out a friend, everything changes. She meets Seth Tuttle—a guy who unexpectedly kisses her then disappears, leaving her flustered and upset. If she never sees him again, it will be too soon.



A chance for love . . .  

Weeks later, when Seth limps into Grace's rehab clinic post surgery, she immediately recognizes him. Unfortunately, he's every bit as frustrating and annoying as she remembered. Yet there's something about him that makes her second-guess her carefully placed boundaries even though he's everything she's sure she doesn't want in a man. But maybe Seth is exactly what Grace has needed all along—assuming she's willing to risk safe and predictable for a chance at love.

Another Feature and Follow Friday. Love this meme. Its hosted by Paranjunky and Alison can Read. And this weeks quistion is:

Q: Is there a song that reminds you of a book? Or vice versa? What is the song & the book?

A: I think in my case it isn't a song but an artist that reminds me of heroic woman in fantasy books. Like Mercy Thompson, Charly Davidson and more of course. I think I love the music of p!nk or paramore in it. If there is some sort of music that reminds me of a book. Because one song is difficult to tell.
