Series Challenge-Scoring/Progress for Kathy

[Kathy]

I've been trying to work on my series in progress, so I'm excited about this!

[Kathy]

Ongoing Challenge:

Points earned for EACH (previously unread) series read
Books Read = 9
Points for each series completed (1 per series) = 3
New series credits earned = 12

**In order to start a new series, I need to "buy" a series. If it has 4 books in the series, I need to have 4 credits to "purchase" the series to read. I have so many series in progress that I don't want to start anymore, just because I read 1 more in another series.

**I am allowed to start a new series without penalty if it is a group/buddy read, but I will not get credit for reading that first book. Every book after that first will be credited.

(I have the right to waive this guideline...as this is my challenge...at a later date that I feel I have made significant progress. :) )

[Laurel]

The Farseer series is sooooooooooo good!

[Kathy]

I loved the first book, Laurel! :)

[Kathy]

I keep thinking of more series that I've started. I knew I was bad, but not this bad! :\

I've been feeling that way about myself since I started the list!

[Kathy]

Lol. We could start a support group.

[Laurel]

However, I'm thinking of going back to my list and culling one or two I don't really intend to finish. I'll leave them there for now, but...

[Kathy]

Every time I turn around I find more series that I haven't finished! :(

[Kathy]

I know I'm doing things very differently, but I get confused so easily nowadays! lol.

[Kathy]

Added:

The Reckoners series by Brandon Sanderson. This is a group read so no penalty.

[Kathy]

I just realized I missed Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar children. It is a series now. There is no penalty for this since I had started the series previously, but just forget to add it here.

[Stephanie]

I should read that one (Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar children). No desire to make it a series, so it wont be listed here. Got enough series going on, just like you!
