Day 4: Favorite Book of Your Favorite Series
Today is a hard one. Choosing a favorite book out of my favorite series, especially when I really love ALL of the books. Choosing my least favorite is easier, so I’ll start with that.
It’s Not Summer Without You, is my least favorite. Susannah is gone. Conrad is acting like a huge jerk (with good reason…but still). And the ending. Uck (I guess you know I’m team Conrad)....
