Day 22 – Favorite ending/climax
The problem with this question is the fact that so many of the books I read are parts of series, and the endings to books in a series aren’t quite as satisfying as those at the very end of a story.
So I’m going to go classic with this one and say my favorite ending is the one in Richard Matheson’s I Am Legend.
It’s very, very different from either of the ones they came up with for the recent film starring Will Smith, so if you haven’t read this I recommend you do so.
It’s a dark ending, of course, but very fitting for the story. In my opinion, without this ending, the title is no longer even appropriate. So give it a try, it’s fairly short so it shouldn’t be too strenuous.
[P.S. - I really, really wish the person who had borrowed this book from me would return it. Just sayin'.]

She also likes to tell stories, so parts of this bio may be exaggerated. Waiting for Fairies is not responsible for any credulity that may be lost in the reading of this bio.
