Create Your Own Adventure- Chelsea Southworth

1) What has been the happiest moment of your life so far?
2) What's your greatest accomplishment so far?
3) What's your favorite book series?

My favorite book series is without a doubt A Song of Ice and Fire (commonly known as Game of Thrones, but that usually refers to the TV show). If I could make the entire world read these books, I would. Almost any genre you could ever want is in this series, from action and romance to suspense, political intrigue, and fantasy. Yet how you classify the series isn't as important as the two major components of any book: character and plot.
The characters of this book are exquisite. Every single one is realistic (no White Knights or Evil Overlords here), and even the ones that you hate you sympathize with. The characters are as diverse as they are delightful, featuring male and female leads with all kinds of personalities and backgrounds. And worst, yet perhaps best, of all, anyone can die. While it does rip your heart out when your favorite character is stabbed in the back or has his head cut off, it makes you so emotionally invested to know that any character, not just the minor ones, can die; you never expect it, and you're always kept on your toes.
The plot too is marvelous. From the prologue of the very first book he already begins to set up his overarching plot, and throughout all of the books he sprinkles in foreshadowing about events to come. Even with all of the subtle hints, you never see what happens coming. This is very true with the deaths of major characters, but there some events, like the especially notable moment of awesome at the end of book one, that are so thrilling to read mostly because you never thought they'd happen.
Your life will not be complete unless you read these books; I could go on for pages and pages about why they're so perfect, but you'll have to trust me. Just read them.
