5. The Hobbit - It's not that I never planned to read it, it's jus that I wasn't planning to read it any time soon (though I should've just done it in my bachpan!). I am yet to read AND watch LOTR, but I realized this was my last chance to watch a Middle Earth movie on the big screen and I managed to succeed! :D

6. The Host - Read it as a dare. (Although, when I look back now, the dare seems more like a ploy to make me read it :| ) Anyway, was not as bad as one might expect it to have been
