30 days of books: days 27,28,29 and 30

Yeah, I didn’t do so well at actually posting these on the days.

Day 27 – If a book contains ______, you will always read it (and a book or books that contain it)!

There are a couple of things that I’m a sucker for, but one of the biggest ones is an Otherworld of some kind.  It’s a huge part of what attracts me to Charles de Lint’s work, especially The Onion Girl, which heavily features an Otherworld.

Day 28 – First favorite book or series obsession

First series obsession was definitely Raymond E Feist’s Riftwar books, which I still love, even though I’m mostly over fat fantasy.

Day 29 – Saddest character death OR best/most satisfying character death (or both!)

The one that springs to mind is Tom’s death in House of Leaves.

Day 30 – What book are you reading right now?

Mark Chadbourn’s World’s End.  Which is incredibly awesome.

Day 01 – A book series you wish had gone on longer OR a book series you wish would just freaking end already (or both!)
Day 02 – A book or series you wish more people were reading and talking about
Day 03 – The best book you’ve read in the last 12 months
