The Series Read-along Challenge 2015 - Chat

[Abi]

This is the place where you can talk to the other people taking part in the challenge. :)

[Connie]

What series is everyone planning on finishing? I'm home tonight so I'm going to make a wee list!

[Katrina G]

I want to get through the Alex Rider series. I know it's a middle grade series, but I've actually really enjoyed reading it so far

[Tati]

I don't really have any plans yet, I'm going to enjoy a laid back challenge, though

I seriously love those books! I read them as a kid and still do as an adult!

[Abby]

I need to finish up a lot of different series. I've got The Mortal Instruments, A Series of Unfortunate Events, Sherlock Holmes, Outlander, Red Rising, Chaos Walking, and a few other recently released sequels to go through.

[Victoria]

I want to finish (or at least read more) Outlander too. Where are you up to?
I also want to finish the Mortal Instruments, and I'll have to see what other series I can find that I haven't finished yet!

I've read the first three of Outlander and just the first of TMI. But the Outlander books are so long and exhausting that I can only handle about one every couple of months.

[Victoria]

I agree, the books are ridiculously huge. I'm up to the third one, so I think I'll aim to get through that one next month :)

[Emma]

Hi All ! :) I am currently looking for buddies to read either for the series challenge :)

[Mei]

Here's what I plan to read for the challenge. The chunky ones will have to wait until December so it would be easy to get through to them without any distractions :)

Well, it would have to be on the 1st week of December. Is that okay?

[Victoria]

Yep, perfect :)

Great, so how about December 5? Or is it too early to say? :)

Let's say 5th ish, so if something comes up we can always change it :)

Im up to reading Onyx and Opal from the Lux Series if you are :) otherwise heaps on the adult shelf seem similar to what I like so happy for you to pick a few you want to read and I'll go along with them :) I don't think i've heard of any of the ones on your list but I love paranormal/fantasy romance/erotica/new adult books !

[Anna 'Bookbuyer']

Onyx and Opal are great. Yay! I'd have to reach Obsidian first though. When are you free?

I'll look through your self for some adult books we can read together later as I'm on my phone right now and heading off to bed. ^_^

[Courtney]

I will be trying to read anything off this shelf in November and December ( https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...) if anyone wants to do a buddy read let me know :)
I already have buddies for Cress and The Elite though :)

I can do the Heir Courtney. And maybe Prodigy and Champion if I can get to Legend first. But definitely the Heir.

[Courtney]

I should be able to get to that, but it might have to be late November early December.

[Courtney]

Only because I still have to read The Elite and The One.

[Anna 'Bookbuyer']

Courtney wrote: "Only because I still have to read The Elite and The One."

KK. That works for me. I have a lot of BRs right now so I think I'll be pretty busy for November. ^-^ Feel free to message me later when you can read it.

I have exams until 19th of November, but knowing me I will want a good book to procrastinate with while studying so really anytime hahah :P

[Alyson]

Unfortunately the first two weeks of November are completely booked right now. So it's looking like the best time would be sometime around the 14th - 21st and I'd still have to read Obsidian first.

[Heather]

I don't really have a list but I know I want to finish the rest of the TOG series that is written as well as Harry Potter Series from book 3. I also want to finish out Elements by Jesikah Sundin in anticipation for book 3 coming out next year!

[Emma]

Bookbuyer

[Connie]

@Abby: I want to read A Series of Unfortunate Events too! What book are you at?

@Alyson: I want to get to Dark Powers as well!

[Brooke]

Also have

I went "shopping" for books for this challenge! Lets get this started :D

[Heather]

totally awesome! I am definitely adding the rest of the lunar chronicles to the list!! I loved Cinder and I finished reading it today!

[Berit☀️✨]

I'm on Obel on that series, and that's of series I plan on finishing as well as the Charlie Davidson series, other than that it will be a basic free-for-all! Oh and I'm definitely reading Winter, so that series will be done!

[rachel, x]

@Katrina I LOVE the Alex Rider series! It was one of the first series I ever truly loved and I started rereading the series a little while ago but stopped for some reason. Once you're up to Eagle Strike let me know and I'll try and join you!

@Brooke Oh my goodness, all those Gossip Girl books to get through! It looks like so much!

[rachel, x]

I've been to the library and gotten a tonne of sequels I want to read. There's no specific list or anything, but I want to read whatever sequels I can and I have lots of buddies planned so I am very excited for the next two months.

But out of curiousity, does anyone else need to read or ?

[Anna 'Bookbuyer']

It's finally started! I just finished off my last book for the last challenge so now I can finally start this one! Woohoo! GL everyone and I hope you enjoy it! :)

[rachel, x]

Good luck, Bookbuyer! I love this challenge so much, completely my bookish highlight of the year. I've already gotten one book read as it is late afternoon my time. I can just feel that this is going to be a good two month stretch!
