Obsessions with the series anyone?

[dgfduck.livejournal.com]

I'm totally in love with Turner's series. Just curious to know how many times everyone has read each book? It's hardly anything to brag but as for me I've read Thief 2.5 times.
Also, is there any good fan art out there?

I've read the first two books...twice each, i think? Possibly three times for Queen of Attolia, I'm not sure. And King of Attolia I've only read once.

That being said, they're all on my list to reread for my 50 Book challenge. XD (In fact, a few days ago I finished reading Instead Of Three Wishes as part of that challenge. And now I might be using that book as part of a school assignment. Score. ^_^)

try looking through the tags. there was some fanart posted before.

I'm not sure how many times i've read through the books completely - two or three probably - but i've read over bits and pieces to clarify a detail or just enjoy a favorite scene TONS of times.

There are plenty of icons floating around, but other than those, these are the only fan arts i've seen:

ICON LOVE.

*seconds the icon love*

welcome!

because I sometimes can't resist bragging, I know I've read QoA at least twice a year for the past almost six years, so at least twelve times. KoA I've only read once and three quarters (between all the times I've said "oh I'll just reread this one section *two hours and five chapters later* oops maybe I'll go do something else now"), and TT I'm not quite sure about...at least four, maybe?

Um, I'm not sure how many times I've read the whole book through in on go. Three or four times for each book? But I do a lot of re-reading of favourite scenes and chapters, and then up re-reading about half of the book. Pretty much the same as Jade. :)

[philia-fan.livejournal.com]

Probably about 8 to 10 times. All of them.

I don't have a clue. I read bits when I'm feeling sad or something, especially when a book has upset me. I think 'Oh, I know what'll cheer me up'. I like the familiarity. In any case, I've read them a lot.

[mycenaeth.livejournal.com]

I honestly don't remember. XD

I *think* I've read:

Thief: 4x
Queen: 3x
King: 1x. =p

I need to reread KoA, but I'm busy rereading Dragonriders of Pern and working my way through Wheel of Time book 10. -__-;;

[estarria.livejournal.com]

I think I've read The Thief twice, and I know I've read KoA once in its entirety, and parts of it more than that. But I'm not sure how many times I've read QoA...more than the others though, maybe 8? My parents got me hardcovers of all 3 a little while after KoA came out, but I still have my paperback QoA, and it's very beat up.

Wow, I feel like I'm part of some really cool club that lesser mortals don't understand. They don't know what they're missing. *feels sorry for the lesser mortals*

[emerald-happy.livejournal.com]

I also feel sorry for the lesser mortals. I wish I had got Punkispurple to read the books before I did. That way she would have a cover proof too.

[emerald-happy.livejournal.com]

Well I started keeping a tally on the inside of the back cover of The Thief. I have read it...*counts*...106 times. That's about 18 times a year. I used to read it every day or every few days, you see.

QoA I'm not sure. Less than The Thief, but more times than KoA. KoA: about 10 times, wait: 10.5 times now.

As for fan art, try searching the tags. Click on "archive" under the Sounis icon and "search tags" will appear underneath it.

Wow.

I have no idea how many times I have read each book...except that I read KoA for the first time while spending the night outside in a cardboard box. In January.

Thanks! You win the award for most unusual/worthy reading of KoA.

And I hope the book kept you warm!

[karwei.livejournal.com]

I've read The Thief maybe twice, but I've listened to it on tape a few times also. I think I've read Queen of Attolia twice, and King of Attolia only once. (Although I read it too fast, and I need to re-read it.)

"obsessed" is not the word. NOTHING like Turner's books. I sometimes fall asleep wondering dreamily what Book 4's gonna be like. I submitted mini-reviews of all three to my library for a display, and my librarian friend told me they went like hotcakes! Glad to spread Gen around.

obsessed is an under statement

[tiloo.livejournal.com]

okay, I read all three last year, and I have lost count how many times I have read them. I am not lying, and I always read my favorite parts over like every single day
