Best Series Endings

Jana says:

Into the Still Blue by Veronica Rossi: Have no fear! This book could not have wrapped up the series any better. I just loved it so much.



Jamie says:

Boundless by Cynthia Hand: This was one of the best last books ever! Always kept me guessing and it was just SO GOOD. I will say that a certain part of how the love triangle wrapped up made me sad but overall this was such a great series ending!
Seconded by Daisy!

Julia says:

Shades of Earth by Beth Revis: This series was great and the ending sure did not disappoint! It took quite a turn from the other books, but I didn't mind at all. Across the Universe in general is one of my favorite YA series. If you like space and dystopian drama, definitely check this series out! It won't waste your time.

Julia says:

A Duke of Her Own by Eloisa James: I loved this six book romance series set in Georgian England. The ending book was especially lovely because it gave us a conclusion for a specific character we had been following all series. Technically there is another book coming out that is tangentially related to this series, so this may not be considered the end, but I still loved how it tied up the overall story line of the first six.

Daisy says

The Bitter Kingdom by Rae Carson: I cannot even begin to describe my love for this series and this book in particular! It was everything I could have wanted from the last novel in a series and though I'm still heartbroken I won't be going on adventures with Elisa and Hector (HECTOR!!) anymore, I still love this book. It was the perfect ending to an epic series!

Kimberly says

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: There may be many who will disagree with me, but to me, the final Harry Potter book was perfect. It tied everything together. The characters were wonderful from the beginning, but it here that we saw how incredible they could be. (Neville anyone???) I cried over the characters I lost, and cried for the characters that found happiness. Actually, I spent a lot of time crying over this book. But only the best books do that to me, the ones that impact me the most and the ones I care about. I could not have asked for a better ending for this series.... Except, perhaps, MORE books. ;)

Worst Series Endings

Jamie says:

Requiem by Lauren Oliver: I HATE THAT THIS HAPPENED FOR ME. It's funny because her last paragraph is one of the most beautiful, strong last paragraphs ever but I really didn't like this book at all. I just didn't feel satisfied and I promise you I'm NOT a person who has to have neat, happy endings. You can read my full review of Requiem by Lauren Oliver here to find out why it disappointed me.

Jana says:

Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins: I closed this book and went, "well... that sucked." I loved The Hunger Games, and I was even invested in Catching Fire because I was so intrigued to find out what happened! And THEN Mockingjay came along and I had so many feelings of rage and frustration by the end of it, because I honestly no longer knew what the point was anymore. It was so hard for me to read that I didn't even review it. Haha.  <Jamie says...I actually loved this one!! *runs away* >

Daisy says:

We'll Always Have Summer by Jenny Han: I'm probably going to be voicing and unpopular opinion here, but UGH! I am still so mad at this book! I mean, I was LOVING this series and it was so good and cute and had real issues and I was digging the lovestory and though I was still annoyed by the name 'Belly' (because seriously, worst name ever), I was willing to overlook this. And then this book happened. And I was like WTF??? What is going on? I lost some of the respect I had for Belly and I just... I'm just still disappointed by the the events in this book.

Julia Says:

The latest books in the Dark Hunters Series.. for like by Sherrilyn Kenyon: Oh, how obsessed with this series I was in the beginning! I had plans to go to the convention. The first six or so books just ripped my soul, but then as book 10... 14... 16 came out, I realized that every single book was the same. Bad boy and a girl whom he would never consider before have wild sexytime and save the world. It gets old fast. It's a shame because I really liked the concept and the characters, but it got tedious. The series is still going on... on book like 26 or something.

Which series had the best and worst endings in your opinion? Do you disagree/agree with any of our choices??
