YES! But for different reasons...
The Hunger Games (series): This left me feeling bad depressed, there was just nothing happy in this world and I wanted to cry for Peeta, Gale, Katniss, everyone! Plus, I loved Gale and ya know.... Well, you do if you read it lol! The Hunger Games left me feeling all dark and gloomy-depressed, like there was nothing good in the world.
City of Souls by Vicki Pettersson: If you've picked up this series then you've been introduced to Joanna Archer and the Agents of Light, including the sexy weapons maker, Hunter. In this book, 4th in the Signs of the Zodiac series, things don't go so well for Hunter & Jo. By the end of the book I was a blubbering mess that just wanted to curl up in bed and rail at the fates for these two characters and I won't lie...give the author a good shake for putting them, and me, through it. I wanted nothing more then a HEA for them. So City of Souls depressed me because it just ripped out my heart, or so it felt.
Fifty Shades (series): Oh Fifty, Fifty, Fifty....This series was like an addiction. I lived off coffee and 4 hours of sleep while reading, it seriously became my whole world and I never wanted it to end. But then... it did...and that depressed the hell out of me. It was like my boyfriend broke up with me or something.

Ha, like your boyfriend broke up with you. Emotionally exhausting.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you on the Hunger Games, makes you feel depressed and like there is no hope for anything good ever again.
Oh yes. I have to agree that The Hunger Games ending made me depressed. Nothing like second best. Fifty Shades of Grey mad me cry and yell until I picked up Fifty Shades Darker. I picked 3 Depressing Book Endings for my blog post as well.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!

I haven't read any of these books and after your posts about them the only one I am going to read is the Fifty Shades--but not right now!! LOL
ReplyDeleteAfter just finishing mine -- I'm depressed now -- I need to bring out one of my comfort books and read that!! LOL :)
Here is mine: http://bellesbookbag.blogspot.com/2012/04/18-over-book-blogger-follow_20.html
Oh, I agree about the Hunger Games! I miss Fifty, but depression wasn't the main emotion he left me with ifyouknowwhatImean ;)
ReplyDeleteHere's mine: http://mrsaubergine.wordpress.com/2012/04/20/18-over-book-blogger-follow-6/
Three excellent books and I can see why you chose them especiall Signs Of The Zodiac. I love that series.
ReplyDeleteHere is mine if you get chance to stop by Claire's Book Corner
I haven't read those yet, though after reading that I don't know if I could handle The Hunger Games.
ReplyDeleteHere's mine: http://theebookreviewers.blogspot.com/2012/04/18-over-book-blogger-follow.html
I haven't read any of those series! I've heard great things about the Hunger Game series!
ReplyDeleteHave a great reading week!
Catching Fire left me the most depressed. It ends with very little hope in sight.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any of these books either, but I've heard both good and bad things about 50 Shades of Grey, and of course Hunger Games, everyone LOVES that book! ^-^
ReplyDeleteAnd to answer your question, yes and no. I do like when books leave me emotionally depressed, but when a series is soo good, not like with the last book in my post x]
Don't hate me but.... I've never read any of these books!!!
ReplyDeleteGood one this week. Love Fifty Shades.

I agree with you on 50 Shades, it was an amazing read!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read these, but I do want to read 50 shades.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on the Hunger Games series and I'll most likely be a mess when I'm finished with Mr. Grey.
ReplyDeleteYou know, I haven't read Hunger Games, yet. I kept just sort of ignoring it and then the movie came out. I just don't know if I could handle the premise, itself :p I'm depressed just thinking about it, lol!
ReplyDeleteCrystal--sorry to be so late, it has been a rough one today. UGH.
ReplyDeleteSome days it just pays to stay in bed, I think.
