Just finished the Twilight series. I also love The Lord of the Rings trilogy by JRR Tolkien, as well as the Space trilogy: Out of the Silent Planet, Parelandra, and That Hideous Strength by CS Lewis. I also love this old-fashioned series called the "Elsie Dinsmore" series by Martha Finley.
But then, I am a real geek when it comes to books and movies. I also love Star Wars, see. Yep. I'm a geek Farmgirl!

The Little Colonel Series, written in the early 1900's about a little girl and her family and other people who actually lived here in my city. The author, Annie Fellows Johnston, lived here, too. One of the books was a movie starring Shirley Temple.

I love the Sookie Stackhouse series by Charlaine Harris... It is fun, a little dangerous, but entertaining.

I love the Elm Creek Quilt Series by Jennifer Chiaverrini and the Quilt mysteries series by Earlene Fowler too (those are set where I grew up) and I am enjoying the China Bayles Herb shop mystery series by Susan Wittig Albert right now. Gosh, I have really loved alot of series! I love the books by Beverly Lewis and Wanda Brunstetter and the Blossom Street series by DEbbie MacComber too. Oh, don't want to forget the Outlander series..can't wait for a new one in that one!! Can you tell I love to read?

| I also love the China Bayles mysteries by Susan Wittig Albert, Laura Child's tea shop series, and the Elm Creek Quilters series. I tried getting into the Tamar Myers series, but found them just a little bit annoying. All my friends love them though, so maybe I'll give them another try! LOL! |

| All Creatures Great and Small series of James Herriott's books. He wrote such uplifting stories. It really wasn't a series, but I think of them that way. I also like Richard Paul Evans books that come out each year about Christmas-time. The Christmas Box was his first. It is a lovely book, a quick read. Of course, the Harry Potter books by J. K. Rowling are riveting at times, but also very long. |
