3.The Fairy Land series

I think I'm going to set myself a goal of completing at least the silver badge. I don't want to overwhelm myself too much. There's so many series I want to finish/start/catch up on like the Lunar Chronicles series, Daughter of Smoke and Bone trilogy, The Mortal Instruments series, The Infernal Devices trilogy, Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea duology, & the Throne of Glass series. Those are my plans so far anyway, they could easily change.

[Kamie]

[Nena]

marsha u can do it...I'm so excited...I can't wait to start

[Shaeron]

Originally I was going for silver. I keep adding series so I'm going for platinum now.

[Lara]

This is exactly what I need! I decided this would be the-year-of-epic-series for me. =p I already know one series I want to finish this year but I'm gonna take some time to think about the other series I'd like to read.
In the meantime, can someone please explain to me what these 'badges' are? =p

[Lara]

Ah! Nevermind! I just noticed the link on the group's main page. Haha. ^_^

Ok I've made a very optimistic list:

1) A Song of Ice and Fire (3 to go)
2) The Sword of Truth (10 to go) =$
3) The Maze Runner (2 to go)
4) Valdemar: the Last Herald-Mage (3)
5) Resident Evil (6 to go)
6) The Infernal Devices (2 to go)
7) Sherlock Holmes (3 books & 56 short stories to go) =$

So I'm going for gold, I guess. I gotta say tho, I'm really skeptical on making it. I mean, those first two series are excruciatingly long books. Those are also the two that I'm most determined to finish. Haha. I'm actually almost halfway through the 3rd ASOIAF book so I'm feeling slightly encouraged by that quick progress- granted, I haven't gotten much sleep since starting it. Lol.

I have the sword of truth on my list too. I only have the last 3 in the original series left to read. That's going to be a tough one to finish. It's my husband's favorite series.

[Lara]

Yes indeed! There's so much detail to Goodkind's books! It's definitely going to be an all-year task. Haha.

[Jamie]

Good Luck to you. I don't know if I count the newer books as part of the original series because he just started writing them in the past few years but I am going to tackle them at some point as well.

[Lara]

Yeah, I also just remembered something my brother told me a while back. He said they get weird after a while. So if it's too bizarre for my liking I may just call it good at that point. But I'd really like to be able to say I finished the whole series. Hehe.

[Jamie]

yes there is one book that has all new characters but if you get past it then the old characters return. It's for a good reason though I assure you.

[Lara]

Oh ok! Good to know. Thanks! =)

[Kristin]
