I have a stange obsession with books. It's not just that I love them. No. It goes beyond that. There is something about a good book that catches deep inside you, grabs ahold, and refuses to turn you loose.
I believe a good book can make you think, make you cry, make you believe in things or trust in things you never would have before. If you come away from a book feeling as though you've been on a journey,then the author has done their job. They've transported you through time and space and reality and illusions and have dropped you off back home feeling wiser and more in tune with the world around you.
I love a good book series. Sometimes you are just unable to let the characters go on their way and live their lives. Sometimes your brain and your soul demand more time and more information. Some truly amazing series writers would be J.K Rowling, Scott Westerfield, V.C Andrews, Cecily von Ziegesar and my most recent favorite, Amanda Hocking. All these authors have different styles of writing, write in different genres, and deal with different situations, but they all have one things in common: one book just was not enough for their characters.
So, in the spirit of books, I'm dedicating a blog post to each of these authors.
