Series List Talk

[❆ Crystal ❆]

Well.... not only is this a great place to track your series and set goals to get them completed, it's also a great place to find new series. SIGH. I've now added another series (Lacey Flint) to my ever growing list. :0

Crystal I keep adding them also. I love this group. One of my favorites. I just finished Lacey Flint Series and just loved it. I wish there were more books.

[❆ Crystal ❆]

:-)....I was reading your comments about Lacey Flint and knew I had to read it. Maybe the author will write more... who knows.

[Mary Beth]

I hope so. It would really make me happy. She does have a lot of stand alones, so Ill try those.

[Jonetta]

Lauren, so happy to see you add Toni Anderson's Cold Justice series to your list!!!

Thanks Jonetta. It was a great read!

[Jonetta]

Okay, Lauren. I see you've now added the In Death series to your list.

[Veronica]

43 books???? Holy cow!

I know! It's very daunting. At least they are really quick reads.

[Veronica]

I knew there were a lot but seeing the books all listed out like that...I may have blacked out for a few seconds.

[Jonetta]

Don't be surprised at how quickly you'll move through the series:)

Yay! I am so glad you are joining to read the series. It took me three years to read them...one year I only read a few and another I went crazy with them.

If the rate I'm reading them is any indication, I won't :0)

As I'm reading along with the buddy read (one per month), it will take me some time.

True...it's a good thing we have other series ;)

[Jonetta]

Yay, Crystal! I see you added the Bridgertons to your list.

Yes, I'm not sure how I missed adding it to my extensive list... sigh. I bought the first book in the series January 2014 and I STILL haven't gotten to it yet.
With you guys talking about it, reminded me that I was seriously missing out. :-)

[❆ Crystal ❆]

Ooohh... Mary Beth, I hope you love Finders Keepers. The 3rd book is coming out in June.... I just found out that Will Patton will be narrating so I'm grabbing it up for sure!

[Mary Beth]

Thanks Crystal! I tried to get the audiobook on Hoopla and they didnt have it. Bummer, so I am reading the book and just started it. I loved Mr. Mercedes. I found out that the third book was coming out in June thats why I am reading Finders Keepers now. Hopefully the third book will be on Hoopla.

[Mary Beth]

Crystal I loved the DI Kim Stone Series and I have read all the Rizzoli and Isles series and loved that also! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

I'll keep my fingers crossed that you get to listen to the audiobooks for Mr. Mercedes... they are so spectacular. They give me chills!

I'm reading the DI Kim Stone series based on your reviews.... so I'm sure I'll enjoy them.

I've had Rizzoli & Isles on my TBR for too long! I really need to get a jump on that series as well.

Great series.
Keep in mind that it is nothing like the TV show. It is much darker and grittier and the characters and relationships are very different.

[❆ Crystal ❆]

That's easy for me Lauren. I don't watch TV and haven't even seen 1 episode. :-)

I have read book 1 and it was pretty gruesome... but I'm okay with that.

[Mary Beth]

I agree with you Lauren, they are nothing at all like the TV show. Yes they are a lot grittier, and agree gruesome but not too bad Ive read a lot worse.

[Mary Beth]

Lauren How do you like The Others and the Cold Justice series. I have the books A Cold Dark Place and Written in Red.

The Others is fabulous. I love the author's take on the supernatural creatures and their interactions with humans. There is a lot of irony in the portrayal of the two.

I really enjoyed A Cold Dark Place and will continue with the series this month - hopefully :0)

[Jonetta]

Looks like we convinced Stephanie to add the Cormoran Strike series!

Great Lauren! I will put those on my May's list! They seem really good.

[Tracey]

Oops! I have added 10 more series to my TBR list but have only completed 1 this year. I wish I could read faster!!

[Jonetta]

I've added four and trying to stay strong!

[Tracey]

I knew I wouldn't be alone :-D We can be together in our addiction to series!

[Lauren]

I can's seem to stop myself from adding. I have a serious problem and I love it!

[Mary Beth]

Haha! I think I already have enough series on my list, but I am always looking for another series to WOW me! I dont think I will ever stop adding series. It will be like that till the day I die! When I get a lot older I hope my eyes and hearing stay the same and my memory! So afraid of that, because without my series, my life would be so boring. I am never bored, always something to read.

[Jonetta]

Amie, I'm loving so many of the series on your list (Downside Ghosts, Grace Valley, Chicagoland Vampires, Guardian Angelino).

Thanks Jonetta! I've slowly been trying to work on my list. It's definitely a work-in-progress. And it's kind of sad at how many series I've only read the 1st book!

[Jonetta]

Amie, if it's any consolation, that's where I was when we created this group and the challenge has made a HUGE difference.

[Jonetta]

Yay!

So there's hope!! LOL

It doesn't help that I don't have much time for reading anymore either.

[Jonetta]

Renee, I'm enjoying seeing the series you're adding to your list!

Jonetta wrote: "Renee, I'm enjoying seeing the series you're adding to your list!"

Thanks, I have started so many of them and don't know how I'll get them all read!!!

[Renee]

I was listing the Hollows series by Kim Harrison and it has a lot of in between books and when I tried to post the book covers I couldn't get the in between books to come up. I got my list from Fict Fact. I was just wondering how other people were listing theirs.

[Jonetta]

I use the series listings here on Goodreads. They've proven to be pretty reliable.

[Tracey]

Lieke I see that you are planning to start Sookie Stackhouse in 2017. A series I am really, really hoping to start next year as well!

[Jonetta]

Tracey wrote: "Lieke I see that you are planning to start Sookie Stackhouse in 2017. A series I am really, really hoping to start next year as well!"

If you start the first book, let me know. I'd be willing to do a buddy read whenever.

Ooh that would be good! Will do...

[Lieke]

Let me know when you want to start I would like to join you in the buddy read. I haven't planned when I'm going to read the books so any time next year is good :)
