2) Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins
3) Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins
4)Castles by Julie Garwood
5) The Secret by Julie Garwood
6) Goddess Test by Aimee Carter
7) Harry Potter 1-7 by J.K. Rowling (see I cheated)

 This week's question: 

Do you have another hobby besides reading?

Answer:

My hobbies are homemaking things, but I’m SO not domestic. I love needlepoint, scrapbooking, and sewing.



This week’s question:

Stand Alone vs. Series: what's your stance?

Answer:

I freaking love series. If I like the book then I want more of that character. I want more of their story. I'm not as much a fan of spin-off series. Only if I'm seriously addicted to a series will I read the spin-off. 

I will read standalone books, but much more seldom. I want to know I'll have more of the world I've invested 3-4 hours to.

    I'd take Hunger Games, HP, and Jane Eyre, too! And I prefer series: get to know the characters more.

    I also want the whole HP series! I did follow the rules and went with one though, but I'd probably do my best to squeeze 'em in. ;)

    My list can be found here!

    I love the Hunger Games series. I would have included it in my list but I took up too much room with the Anne of Green Gables series.

    Love love love that you cheated... I wouldn't be able to leave out the Harry Potter series either, but right there is 7 books. I count a Box Set as one :)

    If you have a chance, I would love for you to stop by my blog! Maybe even check out our giveaway!

    I loved Paranormalcy! It was amazing, but I didn't put it on my list because I need to read Supernaturally and I wouldn't be able to, though that didn't stop me from putting Divergent of City of Fallen Angels... :L Happy reading and thanks for commenting! :)
