Tell us something about your favorite book series.

My favorite ones are Harry Potter and Fifty Shades of Grey.

lol same! Harry potter and I am really loving the game of thrones even though I am only on the second book

Harry Potter books and also the movies were just great.

yeah definitely but I was always a little disappointed by how far off they were with the story
the worst one was the goblet of fire lol they turned the story into something entirely different, I was seething by the end

Yes movies are often very different from the book. Sometimes it can be good but if it's a book I really like then I am very disappointed by the movie.

yeah I know what you mean, that always happens to me but the one book that I read and loved but watched the movie and became really pissed was "the last song" by Nicolas sparks, lol I was mad!

Fifty shades of Grey (I surprised myself)
Twilight
A series of unfortunate events
Odd series , Dean Koontz

I felt that way with the Silver linings playbook..Soooooo different from the book.

I smile to myself everytime I see someone reading the fifty shades books....

I am not good with series. I start reading the first and get to the second and find them boring. The first book series that I was interested in was Harry Porter. I read all the books as they came out. But it was such a long time ago, I sort of grew up with Harry, I want to read them all again. Recently I also read all 3 books in a chick lit series. Queen of Babble by Meg Cabot was fun. I really enjoyed it.

I loved Fifty Shades and haven't read such great books since I read them! :)

yeah I liked the fifty shades as well, I honestly thought the story, though cheesy as hell, was really sweet
her innocence, his possessive nature, sorta clicked together

lol then I shouldn't be disappointed after I read "the silver lining playbook" lol thanks for the warning :)

If you loved 50 Shades and are looking for something very similar then try Sylvia Day's Crossfire series (Bared to You, Reflected in You and Entwined with You should be out in the summer). When reading the frist two books, had flashbacks to Anastasia and Christian - though I would admit that Sylvia Day's books are more 'sinister' and have a more interesting plot. Still am not a convert to the genre and probably will not read the third book in the series.
