Question: Have you ever wanted a villain to win at the end of a story? If so, which one??

Answer: In most cases we like to see our villains suffer uncompromised retribution for their evil ways, however, there are a few exceptions.  The first character that comes to mind is Oliver from I am a Genius of Unspeakable Evil and I Want to Be Your Class President.  Oh, and Artemis from the Artemis Fowl series.  Admittedly, both “bad guys” were written sympathetically so maybe they don’t count.  Can we get a ruling on this?

Just in case the ruling goes against us, some other scoundrels that we have a soft spot for are Zaphod Beeblebrox, Elphaba, and.... actually, that’s all we got.   

Can’t wait to find out who we missed!

Thanks to Parajunkee’s View and Allison Can Read for hosting this fun event.  Have a great weekend!

Question: If you could change the ending of any book (or series), which book would you choose?  Why and to What?

Answer: This question is far too explosive to ignore this week, plus we’re feeling a tab bit rebellious today.  Also, due to the controversial nature of our answer Evan will own up to being the author.....

*Gulp* We (Evan) could have done without the last chapter in the Harry Potter series.  There, we said it.  Sure, it was nice to see everyone all happy and matched, but with there were sooo many new characters introduced.  It felt like a beginning, not an ending.  Plus, poor Draco, the wizarding world can figure out how to brew up a potion to completely change your appearance, but not one innovation has been made in the area of male pattern baldness.  Come on, Slughorn...   There you have it, in writing; one arm of the Two Bibliomaniacs could have done without the Epilogue: 19 Years Later.

Ahhhh, it feels so good to get that off our chest.....  Can’t wait to hear how many blogger vehemently disagree... Please don’t un-follow us J


Have a great Weekend!
