Number 5: City Of Bones by Cassandra Clare

OK, so this one's kind of true... When I first started to read, this book was recommended to me and I didn't enjoy it at all. I didn't get passed the first chapter. This being said with the arrival of the film, I read it again and it is now one of my favourite books.

Number 4: Divergent by Veronica Roth

So like City of Bones, this is another one of those books that I really disliked and didn't pick it back up. I just remember it being stuck under my bed for months until I finally picked it back up again. The rest is history...

Number 3: My Mad Fat Diary by Rae Earl

My Fat, Mad Teenage Diary (Rae Earl, #1)

This is a current one that I have not finished although I do intend to continue reading this but I have other books to read first...

Number 2: Lord Of The Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien

The Lord of the Rings (The Lord of the Rings, #1-3)

This book is the bane of my existence... I have attempted to read this book twice and I just can't do it. The thing I still want to read this one because I want to experience the joys of this world and want to watch the films. I think I just need to find the right time.

Number 1: A Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin

A Game of Thrones (A Song of Ice and Fire, #1)

To be honest I still want to read this one and I did only get 25 pages in. I also want to pick this one back up but I don't have the time for it at the minute. One day...

What are some of the books that you didn't finish? Leave them in the comments below.

See you soon,

Female Representation in Harry Potter: A Transcription

So later today, in 2 hours I am going to be doing a presentation on Female Representation in Harry Potter for my university's Harry Potter Society and I thought some of you may be interested in what I had to say. I also respect that people may disagree with my views on the subject and understand that this is not the only opinion you can have. So here it is... Hello, everyone. Thank you for coming! Today I am going to discuss female representation in Harry Potter books and films. The aims of this presentation would be to introduce you to the fact that female representation in Harry Potter may not be what it seems. So you may think that female characters are actually quite well done in the series but at some points, this is not the case. To look at this further I will be looking at characters individually as well as some aspects of the series in general.
