I think what keeps me reading series is actually loving the characters. I will visit Hawk and Spence anywhere anytime...same with Stephanie...14 was not too eventful but it was great fun just being with her and the gang. J.L. Burke can do no wrong in my book...his prose is gorgeous.
Walter Mosely's series are first rate and come out way too seldom. Ok, I'm done...oh yeah, still read Cornwell but the character coming back from the dead was over the top. ]]>

I just finished Burke's latest...that man can turn a phrase...reading him is almost mesmerizing. ]]>
I love listening to books of a sort that I don't usually read.
Jan Karon's series about the little minister is read by a MASTER and is really fun.
All of Maeve Binchy's are good to listen to.
Elizabeth Peter's series of Amelia Peabody is fab.
