I fancied doing that too, but I know I need to complete the series. I need to know what's going to happen in the end as I have read the first 2.

The further I got through the second book the more I wished I hadn't persevered with the first. Now I have to know what happens, even though I don't care and I can't stand how badly written it is. :hmm:

Good point. I don't want to stop reading and just leave the story hanging there, either. Even though it sounds too familiar anyway.

Sorry. I didn't mean it like that. I really did good for you; I hate the cycle and I the only reason I would finished the series was cause I started in the first place.

I know I sound fickle - minded ( but I am not!), but I don't mind the IC that much when I read it again. OK, it is badly written, cliched etcetc, but still I like it coz its interesting. And I have always been partial to magical series & the IC is following a plot line. I always like when books do that.

If I said that I liked the series, would it be dangerous to my health?
Look, Queezle.

Maybe, but Nero would probably say "yes" for that.

No. But it is solely nathanielandbartimaeus who is saying this. But watch out for Nero & the rest.

WHY ME?
Besides, it was mainly Post...
I find it interesting, just horrible in every other way. Just going to finish the series 'cause I started reading them.

Or maybe you secretly love them and refuse to admit it.

So confident? Um..., but I really don't think you like it.

Have to agree with N&B, you do point out the bad things about the IC a lot...but many people point out the bad stuff about this anyway.

At least you're not like Post, though...in a way.
