Ha, ha!!! I said I read a crap ton of series. :)

[Tien]

And here I thought I read a lot of series! I am still a novice in comparison to you two! lol

[Lisette]

I'm impressed Sassafrass and Dee are going for a round 2! And wow, Sassafrass really does read a lot of series!

Like Tien I thought I was reading a lot of series lol

[Karin]

Only 3 more numbers to go, so hopefully I'll be done before Dec 31. I'm already listening to an audiobook for one of those numbers while I drive, so we'll see.

[Lisette]

You are so close Karin! You can do it!

I'm reading my last book for this now. So will finish in a day or two.
I didn't plan godo enough for this. I have already read a #4,5 and a #1 in series which I'm not going to use.

[Lisette]

I finished this challenge :D

[Tien]

well done, Lusie!

[Lisette]

Thanks Tien!!

[Bea]

I am enjoying this challenge as it is providing me with an excuse to finish up a bunch of series I had begun. I will finish it before the end of the year. Only 10 books to go...

[Tien]

you can do it, Bea! I have about 6 or 7, I think.

[Lisette]

I used this challenge as an excuse to start new series lol
I'll try to finish up more series next year.

[Tien]

Woohoo! Finished this one :)

[Lisette]

Congrats Tien!!

The only problem with this series challenge is that by reading everyone's lists, I now have more series to try :o
