It's an incredibly good series (so far, anyway...) and every book is better than the last.<br />I was really impressed at how Every Breath manages to be its own unique story with its own unique interpretation of the characters. I started it expecting a fast, fun read, and instead got something much deeper and more substantial.

(Perhaps I'm just not reading the right ones?) Regardless, I think the time has definitely come to give it a try - I'm just hesitant because there are about 23089472938749 books in the series, and I'm notoriously terrible at finishing the long ones. :P<br /><br />The other books on this list look amazing as well - I've got my eye on Every Breath, since I'm a die-hard Sherlockian and devour every interpretation ever. ;) Great picks! xtopaz wintershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03266048278124376231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1257908629733815484.post-57650957590695259142015-01-25T07:48:36.832-08:002015-01-25T07:48:36.832-08:00There are a lot of books in the series, but they&#...There are a lot of books in the series, but they're all so addictive that it's taken me only about three days (tops) to finish each one. Granted, I'm only on the third...and I can't wait to get my hands on the fourth! If you do decide to give them a try, I really hope you like them!<br />And Every Breath is also amazing--I can't wait for the sequel!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04177685866335675217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1257908629733815484.post-37968408973210934592015-01-24T18:19:39.121-08:002015-01-24T18:19:39.121-08:00I've seen several people raving about the Skul...I've seen several people raving about the Skulduggery Pleasant series, and the other day when I was at my local library I noticed a copy of the first book in the children's section, so I think I might have to give it a try sometime soon, haha. It's just so <i>daunting</i>, though, because there are SO many books in the series! If I got hooked, I'd probably have to space them all out so I could get some other books read this year, too, haha. ;)<br /><br />And I actually just saw <i>Every Breath</i> on someone's blog recently, though I'm not totally sure which blog it was...but I'm glad you enjoyed it! It looks like you've read some pretty good books lately. Here's to even more awesome reads in the year to come!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13960038755760757791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1257908629733815484.post-31697450788583645752015-01-22T06:43:45.417-08:002015-01-22T06:43:45.417-08:00It is!
