Why did I wait so long to finish this series? I know why… I didn‘t want it to end. 💚

I absolutely loved this. Yes, it was a bit long, but it was totally worth it. I did a hybrid read of this. Listened to it and read some (mostly audiobook).

This was Nhari‘s, Ali‘s and Dhara‘s last journey. So good. I will honestly read anything by this author.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Book 7) | J.K. Rowling

2022 is in the books. I didn‘t finish many of my challenges. I did make my Goodreads goal, read the Harry Potter series and finished the #chunksterchallenge2022.

The Count of Monte Cristo | Alexandre Dumas

I‘m so glad I read these classics. They were all amazing. But the Count consumed me for weeks and I could read nothing else. It was worth every minute.

marleed Oh wow - I‘m impressed. Anything over 500 pages is daunting for me. I don‘t know when I last (or if read) a book over 1000 pages! 1y

The Count of Monte Cristo | Alexandre Dumas

I figured it was time for an update. This is the only book I‘m reading right now. It‘s pretty all-encompassing the brain cells. Only 40 chapters left to go!

#chunksterchallenge2022 @Amiable

vonnie862 It's long but a great classic! 1y

Texreader @vonnie862 I‘m thoroughly enjoying it. I can see why it‘s a classic. I‘m hoping to finish by year‘s end. It‘s taken all of November to get this far so it‘s possible. 1y

Liatrek Love this book so much! 1y

⭐ ⭐ ⭐Three cheers to @zezeki for completing #ChunksterChallenge2022! It took TWO YEARS to get through it -- she started it for #ChunksterChallenge2021 but lost steam, so she tackled it again this year. And finished! AND she enjoyed it! I'm so proud of you. This is the very definition of persistence. Hooray! ⭐

The Last Battle | C. S. Lewis

so-so

Well this was terrible. To think this is a kid‘s series, to end like this is just tragic. No spoilers but suffice it to say I didn‘t like it. Patrick Stewart, almost always a great narrator, was quite poor doing the animals‘ and Jill‘s voices. Fortunately it was short. #chunksterchallenge2022 33 hours finished! @Amiable

Lunakay I know what you mean, I was horrified, too🙈 1y

Amiable Oh, I'm sorry you didn't enjoy it! I loved this series as a kid. I'm guessing I should let those memories live on and not reread it as an adult! 😬 I'm also disappointed to hear that Patrick Stewart didn't do it justice as a narrator. :( But congrats for finishing, though! 1y

Texreader @Amiable I loved the series. The last book was horrible 1y

melissajayne Wondering if we could swap some bookish gifts for Christmas? 1y

rwmg From what I remember of reading it as a child rather than re-reading as an adult, my reaction was (see spoiler below): 1y

rwmg The end of the world? kewwwwwl 1y

Texreader @melissajayne I ❤️ swaps! Were you thinking of one of the Litsy swaps or something informal between us? 1y

Texreader @Lunakay @rwmg I am glad I‘m not the only one! I finished and went yelling around the house to anyone who would listen (my daughter) about how awfully it ended! Especially when I enjoyed it so much and had been thinking on how well written it was. It had a subtle hint of platonic philosophy and sure enough Plato is referenced in the last book—and then kaboom! Sorry I had to vent, again. 1y

melissajayne @Texreader I was thinking of something informal between us. 1y

Texreader @melissajayne I‘m in! Email me at kamonsen at aol.com 1y

melissajayne @Texreader awesome! I will. 1y

Lunakay You are so not alone, I read them a couple of years ago for Christmas and these books have such a warm and kind tone and I thought what great seasonal reading, I wasn't prepared for this! 1y

Lunakay I think the end is inspired by the old testament, isn't the author famous for his biblical references throughout the series? 1y
