What series are you reading?

I wouldn't consider myself a full-on series binge reader. I sort of rotate among 3 or 4 series plus some stand-alones. Even when I'm really anxious to get to the next one in a particular series, sometimes I have to force myself to wait so I don't neglect the other series I'm also reading. I guess I'd rather make progress on several than to finish one.

Harry Potter: Re-reading, but this time listening to the audiobooks.

I'm also listening to the Harry Potter audiobooks and loving them. The narrator is outstanding. Enjoy!

Thanks! Yes, I did listen to one my first time through the series (Order of the Phoenix) but read the rest in hardback. I remember them being really expensive back then, so I was glad when they became available on Audible a year or so ago. I just started Prisoner of Azkaban this morning.

It's certainly a big adjustment but it's going well! My parents are coming in to our house to watch the girls and I'm only about a 10 minute drive away. I couldn't ask for much more! :)

Glad to hear it's going well Erin!

Welcome Jeff!
I'm more like you. I prefer not to binge read otherwise I get burned out on a series. Hope you pop in on our Bosch series read and comment. We always enjoy new perspectives.

Thanks! I'll be sure to check those out.
I think the series I read tend to have more self-contained stories, rather than ongoing serial plots. At least that's true with the ones that I could continue if I wanted to without waiting for the next book to be released. I think if there were more serial plots, I might have to force myself not to binge read, because I definitely do that with TV shows where I have to find out what happens next. Then by the time I get back to another series I was watching before, I've forgotten what was going on.
I finished reading Whisper of Warning by Laura Griffin, The Glass Sisters #2, and was pleasantly surprised! Here's my review.
I finished listening to Boundary Waters by William Kent Krueger, Iron Lake #2, and loved the story and narration. I'm glad I switched to audio. Here's my review.
I'm now reading Bitter Moon by Alexandra Sokoloff, The Huntress/FBI #4, and listening to Echo Park by Michael Connelly, Harry Bosch Universe #15.

I think you would really like this, Jonetta. Amazing character development. Totally engrossing storyline. Book 2, oh, book 2, broke my heart in so many ways!

I'm 18 chapters in and I'm really liking it. I did have to grab my dictionary to look up "portage" though, lol.



Always great to find a new series to love!
