And I have to agree, I just hate having to come to the end of a book, or series!!!Lydia A.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1112525125670502020.post-16955184017052886762013-11-17T19:44:35.825-06:002013-11-17T19:44:35.825-06:00Gasp?

(I actually drew 200 little pictures from them!) I'm sure you've heard that Clara loves the Mistmantle Chronicles. <br /><br />Well, these are similar. It's an animal world, full of vivacious characters from noble hero to smart-talking sidekick to ruthless villain. They're quite epic. There are twenty-two books, and only some of them are directly connected to the other. If you're going to read all of them, I suggest reading The Sable Quean and not The Rogue Crew last. The author died rather unexpectedly, and the Sable Quean was a more satisfying end to the series than the one after it. <br /><br />Oh, I adore the characters and accents in these books! The otters are so awesome, but my favorite animals have to be the hares, doncha' know, wot, wot? They're a jolly sort, you see, but perilous. Aye, perilous. But the most spiffin' of the lot has to be The Taggerung, a tale not for wee little Dibbuns. <br /><br />Sorry, when Redwall is brought up, I must start talking in a British accent. Good show, old chap. Top marks all around, wot. ;)Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15674350834544871474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1112525125670502020.post-16550472548358416792013-11-17T18:21:59.173-06:002013-11-17T18:21:59.173-06:00Redwall series sounds familiar; it's probably ...Redwall series sounds familiar; it's probably because of my older sister. Is it good?<br /><br />Although it's not a book, there's something I'm currently watching which I feel like is going to be the second movie/TV show that's ever made me cry. Sometimes, you just get those feelings. ;)The Writerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05851111578457253918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1112525125670502020.post-66613015686032483942013-11-17T18:20:33.214-06:002013-11-17T18:20:33.214-06:00Ugh, I know!

And it was different than the rest of the book. I heard another author finished it when Brian Jacques died. Whoever wrote it, they killed off way too many of the young heroes at the end. <br /><br />But just recently, I read The Mistmantle Chronicles, which were just as good. Though I think I was crying by the end. :)Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15674350834544871474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1112525125670502020.post-56349146316390742152013-11-17T07:17:23.870-06:002013-11-17T07:17:23.870-06:00I agree.

Als...I agree. What was Suzanne Collins thinking???<br /><br />Also, that picture was me last week. I had a mini-breakdown. There was yelling involved (though not at any real people). It was not pretty.Sarah Penningtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06377945004067760298noreply@blogger.com
