Game of Thrones | Unlikeable Character(s)

Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn | I hated pretty much every single person in this book. They were not likeable characters. If you have read the book or even seen the movie you totally understand what I mean. As for Game of Thrones.... I am sure you can guess all the characters I don't like in that one.

Grey's Anatamoy | Your ship sank or didn’t happen

Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas | I love this series hard, but I don't love what is happening between Chaol and Celeana. I am still rooting for them and have been ever since Chaol got down on the ground outside the circle when Celeana was fighting and helped/encouraged her to keep going. That scene has always stuck with me.

Friends | Best cast of characters/friendships

Winter by Marissa Meyer | In my opinion this is the ultimate teamwork book. The characters meet throughout the series and become friends, not to mention that they help save everyone from Queen Levana. I heart them all.

Pretty Little Liars | Hate that you love or guilty pleasure

 

Bared to You by Sylvia Day | I am highly embarrassed that I enjoyed this book even though everyone should read whatever they love and not feel guilty. However, I have only read up to the third book because I wasn't sure I was really enjoying the series anymore and didn't like where it was headed.

Doctor Who | Long series you loved

 

Harry Potter Series by J.K. Rowling | I had to put HP on here somewhere.

Vampire Diaries | All the feels

Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell | I feel like this book is perfect for this choice on so many levels. 

How I Met Your Mother | Bad ending

Allegiant by Veronica Roth | Now that I have had some time to cool off, this ending doesn't bother me quite as much as it used to. I understand why the ending happened the way it did, but I still think it could have been handled better.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer | Favorite paranormal/fantasy

A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness | I will always love this trilogy. It holds a special place in my heart. I also will always have a softness for vampires.

Firefly | Left you wanting more

Salt & Stone by Victoria Scott | I LOVE these books, and if there isn't a third one I may die. I need another book people.

One Tree Hill | Series that should have ended earlier

Sookie Stackhouse Series by Charlaine Harris | Apparently two vampire books are making this list today. So I still love this series, but I read spoilers of the last book and am so very disappointed by its ending that I will never read it. This series should have been ended a book or two sooner, just like One Tree Hill. Did it really need to keep going after Lucas and Peyton left the show?

Downton Abbey | Set in a different time period

 

A Madness So Discreet by Mindy McGinnis | I don't read a lot of historical fiction, but when I do I love it. This one is dark and wonderful. 

Orange is the New Black | Couldn’t stop reading

 

The Burning Sky by Sherry Thomas | This is a book more people should be reading. I devoured this series and I am always recommending it to teens at my library.



Parks and Recreation | Made you laugh out loud

Denton Little's Deathdate by Lance Rubin | This book is hilarious. I did the audiobook and I have never laughed out loud more while reading than with this book.

True Blood | Favorite book boyfriend

A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas | Rhysand, oh how I love thee. I swooned, I got teary eyed, I swooned some more, and I will forever love Rhys. He is complex and wonderful and kind and beautiful and strong.

Breaking Bad | Favorite villain

 

Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo | I know not everyone liked The Darkling like I did, but he will always have a special place in my heart as a wonderful villain that I sometimes hate to love.

Modern Family | Best family or parents

Finding Audrey by Sophie Kinsella | This story is about friendship and family and being the best person you can be. Audrey might have a sometimes annoying mom and brother, but that is how family works.
