30 Days of Book Discussion: Day 4

Favorite book of your favorite series

Well, if we're talking about The Books of Pellinor, I'd have to say that the second book named The Riddle stands out the most to me.

I like all of the books in the series, but this one has a scene toward the end where Maerad (that's our protagonist girl's name) is trapped in this ice palace by this evil ice king.  I remember it because they sort of have a "thing" going on... does he offer her a place with him as his evil ice lady/queen?  I can't remember but I seem to think that happened.

I totally have a thing for the "evil guy offers a chick his hand" scenario, because I am definitely a girl that would say yes to that situation.  Heck yeah.  If it was me in The Labyrinth and David Bowie was saying to me, "Just fear me, love me, do as I say, and I will be your slave!"  I'd be like, "Hellz, yeah, David Bowie.  I'll take you and your tight leggings any day of the week, thank you very much."

Anyway, I love that part of The Riddle, even though Maerad turns him down (idiot girl, being all noble).
Oh yeah: And she turns into a wolf.  I know, these books are so badass.

Honestly, I'm not sure I'm remembering all that correctly.  Maybe that ice king guy doesn't even find her remotely attractive.  Maybe it was just me being like, "Take me, evil ice guy."  Isn't it weird that I married one of the most noble, kindest, gentlest guys out there when I obviously have this weird fetish?  I have to go watch some scenes from The Labyrinth now...
