| Hey Sarah. [img]smilies/hug.gif[/img] I prefer the Buffy novels to the Angel ones and I've read most of the Buffy ones with only a few exceptions. (Door To Alternity, Seven Crows and Resurrecting Ravana) I only own three Buffy novels: Oz Into The Wild by Chris Golden, Tempted Champions by Yvonne Navarro and Blood and Fog by Nancy Holder. But I will say that I practically hold my library's copies' of most of the other books hostage, I borrow them every other week. [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] The most recent Angel book I've read is Sanctuary, the one where Fred is kidnapped outside of Caritas. I really enjoyed it actually, it was a good plot although it dragged a little in the middle but it picked up towards the end. I will say that one of the worst Buffy novels has to be "Crossings". I didn't get that at all, and the plot was completely uninteresting. I also did not like the ending of "Long Way Home" - wtf was up with that? Maybe it's because I have deep loathing for all things Riley. [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] __________________ "...I wouldn't mind seeing Vaughn in a wetsuit.

| Fan Forum's Finest  | I love these books. I have read a lot of the Buffy ones and some Angel ones. They're really good. The Buffy books I have are Immortal, The Wisdom of War, Seven Crows, The Lost Slayer series, Apocalypse Memories, Chosen, Blooded, Sins of the Father, and The Angel Chronicles. I think that my favorites are Sins of the Father and Chosen. __________________ Nat The Rockstar Dawson: But what good is their love if it's not strong enough to overcome those circumstances?Joey: Because in spite of the circumstances... they never stop loving. icon by *luthien* | |||

| I have a lot too but I don't have my absolute favorite and that's Sins of the Father. I saw the original Buffy movie before I ever started reading the books and when I picked up that one and found out that Pike was back ... I had to read it. And it was awesome! :-) I have a few Angel books, but I only like a few of them. My favorite is Redemption cuz it gives a lot about Angel's past with Spike and Dru and stuff. It's really interesting. But most of the other ones I couldn't even get through. | |||

| I read a few of the earliest ones, like The Gatekeeper Trilogy, and a few others. Haven't read any in a long while though. __________________ ~ Kay ~ | |||

| I [img]smilies/love.gif[/img] Buffy books. I own almost all of them except for The Willow Files, The Xander Years and The Faith Trials. My favorite are The Gatekeeper Trilogy, I've read them like 5 times. The idea of the Gatekeeper with all his magic abilities just fasinates me. I also really like The Book of Fours because it gives Slayer history and I was kinda hoping for a sequel. I never finished Paelo and never got around to reading Into the Wild. I've never read Angel books and I'm more into Buffy. The crossovers are really good. I finished Cursed a month ago but it took me forever to finish it because I never really got into it. -Leora __________________ Angel:You still my girl? Buffy:Always.

| I've read a fair amount of the Buffy and Angel books, although I can't remember all of them off hand. I own the Spike & Dru book (can't remember the full title at the moment), The Book of Fours, The Wisdom of War, and Little Things. I am sorry to say that I didn't like Little Things very much, and I haven't been able to bring myself to finish The Wisdom of War yet. Out of all of the books, my favorite Buffy novel is Spike and Dru, and my favorite Angel novel would be Avatar. __________________ one perfect partner | |||

| I've read so many Buffy books I can't even remember which ones on my bookshelf I've read lol. I would have to say Chosen was my favorite, I think that the last season in the book was actually better then the tv ending  __________________ It was a real relationship, it was just real dysfunctional.

| I have a crap load of Buffy books and a few Angel ones. I just liked the Buffy ones better. My favorite of all though was Immortal. __________________ Q: Do you "smoke" your Twizzlers? Sean: What the hell is a Twizzler? I don't listen to hip hop. Vote Sean Biggerstaff Vote for Matt Damon | |||

| I love these books. I actually have the first five or sixAngel ones and tons of Buffy ones. I think I have "The Harvest" thru "Wisdom of War", but I might be missing a couple. The thing is, will there be anymore now that both shows are over? Could they do alternate seasons, as they have with some of the later books? Also, my favorite out of all the books is "Pretty Maids All In A Row." Why do I think some of Buffy's season seven storyline came from it? __________________ Nichole Humor is an affirmation of dignity. | |||
