I've never met someone who's read the Bloody Jack Adventures before either! Yeah, I love them - Jacky's always getting herself into the craziest situations. 'Under the Jolly Roger' is a really good one. I read up to 'Lorelei Lee' and I have the next one, but I haven't started it yet, because I have a long list of books to get through that I'm just as excited to read.
Animorphs I have not read. My childhood consisted of a lot of 'Hank the Cowdog' which was about a dog who lived on a ranch in Texas and was always up to some shenanigans. They were quite entertaining and funny. I still have like the first forty of them. They were my first big book series growing up. ^^ Ooh, and I used to read 'Guardians of Ga'hoole'. Those were always fun to read. But after the first series it just got kind of boring for me.

I saw someone mentioned the Last Dragon Chronicles series I read up to the fourth book-- I haven't been able to get any of the others, and honestly, it went in... kind of a weird direction xD Not a /bad/ one, mind you; but I was kind of wanting to stick with my cute clay dragons :C (On that note: Would anyone here be interested in a roleplay semi-inspired by that? Maybe even include Rune dragons or something, they're little sculptures *instead of just drawings online xD* that come to life and... I dunno, maybe Nyarlathotep's trying to take over the world or something xD)
I totally agree! They started off so good and just got so bizarre. They are just all over the place now. But I'm so invested in the characters now I can't stop reading them. Nor can I remember what the first book was even about at this point. XP As for a roleplay, I have not the read the first book in a long time, so I don't know if I'd join, but it's a great idea!
Urgh. 'Eragon'. I
loved that book when it first came out. It was so great. I still have a ton of nostalgia for the first book. 'Eldest' wasn't half bad either, but as the series progressed it just got... I don't know. It lost some of it's charm. And then the last book - not to spoil it for anyone reading the series - but the last book was pretty awful. It felt unfinished, even rushed, and there were all these loose ends.
But the first book was good. I really enjoyed it. I personally find Eragon himself to be really pathetic to the point of it being silly. Like he blacks out every five chapters or so, which I find utterly hilarious for some reason. ^^ But the other characters are great. Except Arya - my gosh she annoys me so much. Even moreso in that dumb movie they made... with the feathers... oh, those feathers.
