Good luck and happy reading, Owl :)

[Li'l Owl]

Thanks Sharon =o)

Wish you luck with yours as well!

I think entering all the books was the hard part. Reading them will be the easy part! Of course, I could have saved time and energy posting them if I hadn't been dumb and did this on a day that GR was having serious problems! Should have just waited until it was working better. I'd forgotten that the problem probably had to do with the computers and New Year. I also could have shortened it by not putting the book covers, too. But, I really like to see the covers. Helpes me keep them straight! So, there you have it! I'm stubborn! But it's done! Looks pretty nice too, according to me, of course!

[Brenda, Suspense lover!]

Good luck and happy reading Owl :) Great challenge!

[Li'l Owl]

Thanks Brenda! =o)
I'm looking forward to reading these. I hope I didn't over do it! Time will tell. I'm going to be sure to enjoy them verses just finishing the challenge. =o) x

Yes I do. At the time I set this challenge up I only had the three. Now I have them all but I'm not going to add them here. I've pretty much resigned to myself that this challenge is out the window! I will probably get a few more of these read but..... We'll have to see. I think I got a little too hasty and overly optimistic setting this up! My reading tastes have changed some too! I'll have to revamp it next year with a little more care!
=o)

I feel like I'm reading through sap! I've had a low grade fever since last Wednesday and it just won't go away. Needless to say, the pain is something awful when combined with the fibro. I've no other symptoms except an occasional dry cough. (?) And feeling BLAH! Guess I'll have to see my Dr. today. The very thought of just getting in the car doesn't sit well but I'll just have to suck it up or I fear I'm not going to feel better anytime soon. =o(

[Brenda, Suspense lover!]

Oh that's bad luck Owl :( I do hope you're feeling better soon!

[Li'l Owl]

Thanks Brenda. I decided to give it one more night before heading to the Dr.
I managed to get through last night and today without a fever. Still feeling a little off but things are looking up. =o)

[Brenda, Suspense lover!]

Good luck with the continued improvement Owl...

[Li'l Owl]

Thanks! =o)

[Li'l Owl]

Finally had to go to the Dr. on Friday. Still with fever of unknown origin. They did several tests including chest X-ray (clear) & blood work with blood cultures. No results yet but of course I have been feeling pretty normal since Saturday! =o)

[Brenda, Suspense lover!]

Law of averages Owl!!!

[Li'l Owl]

Isn't always! =o)

Decided to add #4, 5, & 6 for this series since I'm reading them for a different challenge anyway. A little more progress can't hurt for this one! That's for sure! ت

[Brenda, Suspense lover!]

Doing well Owl!!

[Li'l Owl]

So far anyway! If I can complete 2 of 11 series I'll be happy! Then, ice cream/frozen yogurt cone here I come!! ت

[Sharon]

Completing any book is good, Owl. Keep going I'm sure you get a few more read :)

[Li'l Owl]

Absolutely! ت

This is the final part of this challenge as I'm throwing in the towel and will start anew in 2018.
Honestly I wasn't sure I would even get this far so I'm proud of my accomplishment.

I think you've done very well, and should be proud, considering it was a big challenge and you've had health issues. Congratulations L'il Owl and relish that yummy reward!

[MaryG2E]

I like the idea of this challenge, to read a series in sequence. I always prefer to start with book 1 of a series, because you usually get a lot of back story, which then informs the subsequent volumes in the set.

[Brenda, Suspense lover!]

Congratulations Owl! You've done a magnificent job :)

Thanks Brenda and Mary! I'm quite proud of this one!
Tomorrow is peach frozen yogurt day! ت
I wonder if I could get two rewards for finishing my other challenge?? Perhaps a pizza from my favorite pizza parlor!!

I am really working hard at reading series books in close succession, Mary, otherwise I have trouble keeping up with what is happening! It's easier said then done though!
I think the feathers are getting a bit of wear and tear these days!
