This week I decided to participate in Alexis' (at Reflections of a Bookaholic) meme "Why I love". This is a super fun meme that I always read and comment on but for some reason have never participated in.

This week the topic is Favourite Series, and this was actually a bit of a tough question for me because while I love the idea of a book series that hooks me and goes on forever I usually loose interest around book #3 or #4 and rarely finish. I couldn't pick just one series so I narrowed it down to 3 favourite series in 3 different genres (see how I cheated a bit there? I'm sneaky like that!).

Dystopian

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins 

I held of on reading The Hunger Games for the longest time thinking that it wasn't for me. I mean, teenagers and kids being forced to fight to the death is not usually what I would consider quality bookish entertainment (at least for me). But then I kept seeing all of these gushing reviews from all of my favourite bloggers and I thought to myself – maybe there is something more that I'm just not getting.

I ended up listening to the series on audio book and it absolutely blew my mind. Seriously the audio's of these books were amazing and I highly recommend them to everyone!

Paranormal/Fantasy

The Iron Fey by Julie Kagawa

The Iron Fey series was actually my first venture into the Fey world and I just loved every single one of these books. From my favourite character of all time Puck, to the incredible world building at the hands of Kagawa this is a series that I know I will be coming back to again!

Christian/Amish Fiction

Abraham's Daughters by Beverly Lewis

This was actually one of the first series' that I read after finishing university and I have to say what a treat it was to be able to read something that I wasn't being graded on! This series helped to renew my love of reading and it is another that I can see myself reading again!

What about you? What is your favourite series?
