OCTOBER 2017 Finish What You've Started (Series) Challenge:

Please post your shelves. NO COMMENTS in this thread please. After I post the pair, it will add a link to the shelf, and then you can add discussion comments.

How It Will Work:
1) Please only post a list of 5 series that you have Already Started but now, you would like to get current on. There must be a minimum of TWO books remaining in your series.
*When listing your series, please only list the bookcovers in the series you have NOT read yet.
**Novellas are optional.

NEW TWIST is your picker can choose to pick two series for you instead of one. This is because sometimes people read one book and decide they really didn't enjoy the series after all.
Option B gives you the chance to read One Book from Two series, instead of two books form one series.

It is the Picker's option!!

2) OPTION A: An assigned person will pick ONE series from your post series.
OPTION B: An assigned person will pick TWO series from your post series.

3) You have one month: OCTOBER 2017
OPTION A: to try to read as many books in that series as you can—minimum two books in that series.
OPTION B: try to read as many books in the two series as you can—minimum one book per series.

*if you don't read you, it's okay because this challenge is for YOUR ENJOYMENT.

4) Please try to select for your pair ASAP as we all get excited and waiting is torture to some.

5) After you have made your selections, please return to your original bookshelf and update that shelf with the books your chose and the ones chosen for you.

TIMELINE
SEPTEMBER 15-22, 2017: Participants will Post their shelves
*If you do not list a shelf, I will not pair you with anyone
***Cut off on SEPTEMBER 22: 1030 (10:30am CST)

SEPTEMBER 22-27: Pairs will be posted & then Selection of a Series (Specify Option A or B)
*Again, as I said earlier, please try to select for your pair ASAP.
***Cut off on SEPTEMBER 27:
