Of Men and Mice is a ******** classic. Probably one of the saddest ending I've ever seen. The author picture the emotion PERFECTLY. Nearly made me cry ****.
+rep me and you'll get good karma, wich means you won't be reincarnated into a rock! Isn't that awesome?

Fatel thanks for reminding me of Darren Shan !
The Demonata is an excellent series, quick easy read, but it really makes you want to read more of it !

good but not great series. the first book is VERY good, but that leads to high expectations for the other books in the series, which they just dont live up to in some cases. in order i'd go
1. eragon
2. inheritance
3. eldest
4. brisingr
You really think so? Didn't the ending of Inheritance just spoil it for you? I agree with the rest of the ordering however, the series gave me many hours of enjoyment.
And I know exactly what you mean Skrallz, he needs to never stop.
Thank you Jovy for this bomb *** sig!

@Phil, I agree, but I greatly prefer it's simplicity.
I didn't really enjoy LoTR at all, because it tells you SOOOOO MUCH that you don't need to know at all. Like, the story isn't even that long, but it's a pretty long book, because it tells you so much that personally I don't really care about. I don't want to read half a page about what a wooden door looks like, or 2 pages about a minor character's ancestors, or half a chapter about how great pipeweed is. (not saying these exact things happened, just listing off random things. My point is, stuff LIKE this DID happen rather frequently)
It's not that I don't like reading a lot, or can't handle long books, or anything, I'm not one of those people sitting there reading going 'GRAAA WHERE'S THE ACTION, I DON'T CARE ABOUT TALKING!' It's that I hate when things are unnecessarily dragged out. To me it seems like LoTR wasn't created with the mindset of 'I'm going to write a great book, and maybe it'll turn out to be really long' but rather 'I'm going to write a really really long book, and it'll be considered an epic because of it'
This is all my opinion though, and while I'm entitled to it, I respect yours as well :3

Details are good. I want to have something like Rivendell described to me, I want to be able to get a feel of what it's like. I want to know if it's raining, I want to know if the area the characters are in is a swamp, or a mountain, and what it's like, I want to know what the characters look like, important things y'know?
I DON'T want 5 pages on what a table looks like, and what wood it's made of, and how old it is, and how it was obtained, and who made it, and why they made it, and who they were, and their whole life story, and their parents life story, and so on. It's a tad ridiculous. >.<
