I was just sitting here reading and I started thinking about endings. I am a huge series fan, I’d rather read a book series 
2010 was an year when we had a few series ending and at least one more huge one still to come. My heart broke when I read the last line of Rachel Caine’s Weather Warden series, I kept weeping for more when I finished ALPHA, I will forever remember Riley and Quinn’s adventures that Keri Arthur has 
I feel that there are at the very least a few different kinds of endings I have encountered throughout my reading journey. A series can end in a prologue, with a glimpse into the future or simply an extra scene to wrap things up.
It can also end in a cliffhanger, which quite honestly It’s just find mean LOL. I have found that a lot of them end in the present time of the story and just leave to future to be imagined by us readers.
My favorite kind would be the prologue one. I love that glimpse into the future, that moment that you can see that after all that you been through with those characters, you actually feel like you’ve been with them their whole lives and you are now a part of it.
One of the series that I am dying to read the ending of is The Vampire Academy series by Richelle Mead. I am actually 
I don’t really want to comment much on specific series ending, just because I don’t want to spoil it for anyone, but there are definitely some endings that have been more satisfying than others. There is a lot at stake for us fans, we have dedicated our time and money to that series and a lot of ![vampire-academy-penguin_thumb[3]](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjf0eUy-83mysteV5GWu3ZvxEx9oRGbVA4lerzoboDLIvXX8sDXmM-dKOnKMCL5J0vDzuXuRxYZMblMXd51qJ-ldssfKY-YktzG8dKZwgDfGp4bLX0wCcTvaRSdy8zqCkUpDuX_Wa8-N2o/?imgmax=800 "vampire-academy-penguin_thumb[3]")
On the other hand a series can end in such a high note that you are happy and sad at the same time.
All in all, endings are endings and if you love a book series, you will miss it, but everything comes to an end, right? Right? LOL.
How about you guys??

I do enjoy a good standalone novel at times... but more often than not, I want more... hehe
Sometimes I really miss the stand alone novel. But I understand that readers and authors too, must just get attached to their characters and worlds.
I think Rachel Caine's ending to the 'Weather Warden' series was sublime - fantastic epilogue!
I wanted an epilogue at the end of 'Alpha', just to balance-out the devastation and violence of the last chapter.
I am really looking forward to Richelle Mead's 'Vampire Academy' finale... which I think will be a cliff-hanger ending because there is a spin-off series set for 2011.
I also really want to know how Mead ends Georgina Kincaid's series. Because that series has been so dramatic and sad, I really hope Mead ends on a cheesy rainbows, and sunshine ending. lol
Great post, btw! Love the topic!
@Danielle
Im ok with VA ending in a cliffhanger as long and Dmitri and Rose's romance gets closure at least LOL
and OMG I soooo am dying for the end of Georgie's story!! yep, she needs the rainbow ending ASAP LMAo
I do get sad when a series ends. But I usually agree with the author about not wanting to needlessly drag it out. The Shifters series, Riley Jenson and Weather Wardens were all my faves as well and I liked how they ended. The endings were good and decent and left you knowing that the characters were going to live HEA. I want to know that too. Even if it's not how I imagined it, I want to know that the characters I've grown to love reading about over the years are going to live HEA.
And Vampire Academy is yet another series I will be sadden to see end, but at least Richelle plans to write another one in the same world. Maybe Rose and the gang will pop in for a quick hello!
I know what you mean! and I agree, I hope Rose and the gang show up on the spin off as well! =)
Shadowfever!!!!! I have loved this series. I like there to be an end. I find books that just go on and on tend to lose me eventually. I like closure, eventually .
@Sharon
I agree with you!! =)
