DAY 2. - Favorite side character.

Sometimes side characters can be even more compelling than the main ones, so I've had really big troubles with choosing my favourite. It takes a great writer to create a side character with whom readers fall in love, because they give the special touch to the story and make the story even more interesting and deep.

I was thinking about the books I've read recently and thought of so many great characters, but instead of that I kept looking for someone about whom I was reading a long time but still couldn't forget about him/her. So... Among all possible options I chose Adrian Ivashkov from Vampire Academy.

Yes, he is the main character in the Bloodlines series, but in the Vampire Academy he was just a minor character and wasn't even mentioned in the first book. In Frostbite, 2nd book in series, he didn't make a really good first impression. He was a bored rich guy who was trying to get Rose, with whom he fell in love on the first sight. But during the Vampire Academy and later Bloodlines series, he was slowly changing and came from a desperate boy, who had no idea what to do with his life and whose only entertainment were alcohol and girls, to a man that actually cares about others, fall in love with a human girl and start doing something with his life. I like him, because at the beginning he is a weak-willed person. Yes, he's always been doing everything his own way, irrespective of what others thought about him, but his worst poison and enemy was coming out of himself. He is a spirit user and that's why he had problems with behavior and depression, but then, with Lisa's help, who is also a spirit user, he learned that alcohol and partys were not the cure for his problems and that he needed to change the way he was living. It was definitely hard for him, but he became a man that knows what he wants, do things his way, but he still remained Adrian: honest, frank, ready to party at any minute of the day and not being afraid to defend the ones he loves.

DAY 1. - A book series you wish had gone on longer OR a book series you wish would just end already.

So here we are, day 1.

When I was younger, I absolutely loved reading series. As I found a new amazing series, it meant that for the next month or even more, if there were more books, I'll be reading and enjoying, making sure to borrow enough books in library for the next week and hardly waiting to open the next one after finishing previous.

I have to mention the Famous Five by Enid Blyton. It's been a long time since I read them, but I can still remember enjoying every single one of 21 books. I remember the day when my parents brought me the first one book from the library. I was like, they certainly didn't take the first one, but I started reading and found out it actually was. I really liked their adventourous, when they went camping on their own and the most of all, how good friends they are and... FOOD. You know, they were always hungry and were eating all these delicious british food.

But theme today is a book series you wish had gone on longer. It may sound so ordinary, but my favourite favourite favourite series was Harry Potter. I can still remember a call from bookstore when they were ordering last book or how we went to bookstore to get it. Then reading it slowly, wishing it will never end end feeling kind of sad when it finished although the end was happy.

And what about a book series you wish would just end already? I'd say House of Night. I was trying so hard to read all of them, because I kind of liked the first book, but all the next ones were just so, I don't know, boring. Mostly I just read beginning and end of the book, I really couldn't wait and read the whole book to see what happens at the end. Honestly, I'm not really sure I read all of them, maybe skipped the last one or maybe even two... But I liked that quote: Darkness does not always equate to evil, just as light does not always bring good.
