Last Book You Read?

What's the last book you read? Did you like it? Why or why not? Is it part of a series? Did you identify with a certain character well? Would you recommend it? Were you recommended it by a friend? Were you happy with the ending?

I'll start.

The last book I read was Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. My friends had been nagging me to read the series, so I started with the first book, which was great. Then I got hold of the second book and read it. It's really good. I'm not usually one for super-fiction, but I like this Harry Potter. :) Though I think a lot of people here have already read it, I highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't. I thought the fight between Harry and the professor was a disappointment, though. It could've lasted a tad longer. But all in all, great book. Great series.

Your turn! Go go go!

Anyways. Right now I'm actually in the middle of the book 1984 by George Orwell.
I'm not really going to comment on it, since I haven't finished it, but I would definitely recommend it. :D; ▶ Reply to This
