The Song of Ice and Fire (Game of Thrones). I don't know how people do to enjoy the series and read all the books. I bought the box set with the 4 first books, read the 1st and 2nd and don't know what to do with the others as I really don't want to read them.

Maybe Harry Potter, I enjoyed a lot the 1st books and less the others (when they became so huge...). Overall the story was satisfying.

Of course we are! What's more fun that reading? What? No, really, what? Nothing. That's right. Nothing. Great, now that we've settled that who is ready for another challenge? Nodding off isn't an option for me so I've been drinking a whole lot of caffeine to get through this event. Caffeine... coffee... oh, look, it's time for The Coffee Book Tag c/o BookTuber and modified by yours truly.
