Janice, I finally completed my first level. I read the remaining 6 novels in the 7 book Odd Thomas series. :-)
Congrats, Jessica! I've read the first 2 or 3 Odd Thomas books and loved them. I actually listened to them on audio and I admit that the narrator is part of why I liked them so much! I plan to continue the series, but I really want the audio versions and I haven't found them cheap enough yet.
Thank you, KimeyDiann! I started on #5 in the series, by far my favorite, and then had to go back and start from the beginning. I listed to the final novel as an audiobook and, you're very right, the narrator was really good. :) Do you use Amazon's Audible? You get 1 free audiobook when you sign up :-)
Congratulations to all of you who have completed a series!!! Thanks to Audible I have just purchased number one in about six or seven series, I have yet to finish the series ;-) however I have plenty of series to start, I need to stop! I will probably not finish the series until March or even April, but I have lots to read :-)
Woohoo! Killed level 1! https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...I didn't really have a strategy, I just went with the library books I had on hand. Moving forward, I may rethink that and strategize a little more instead of just winging it, so I get more bang for my buck, lol.

Of course it seems most of the big name authors don't have their works available on Kindle Unlimited and I haven't seen very many new releases either.
Wow - you're all doing amazing! So jealous... I seem to be really slow this year so far but I know real life has got in the way a little plus I was in a bit of a reading slump for a bit. Things have picked up now and the toppler should sort all that out - going to include as many series books as possible that week.

Look at you all going like crazy! I feel like Slick the Slug right now. I'm reading my 5th book for this challenge right now, but still no kill. Two more books after this one though, and I'll be back for my badge!
You will get there Peggy! I have a feeling it will all average out in the end. Some of us were just lucky to have last books to read to kill off things sooner for the early levels. I have to read more books now unless I want to kill more series on each level. I still might but I have more than enough books to choose from and more than enough series to wade through. I see more new ones every day. It's driving me crazy not to add them to my lists.

I know how you feel :) I only have one kill because I only had one book left to read in a series. Now it is going to take me forever to kill level 2...unless the latest Janet Evanovich ever becomes available at the library :-)
I'm 1/3 of the way through the final book in a series that would bring me to finish another level. But, I'm tempted to start reading other books...
So I've finally got around to writing up the series books I've read so far. Completed level 1 and 2, badge me please Janice :)https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
Level 4 done!Buried in a Bog - Sheila Connolly - 5 points
The Winds of Change - Martha Grimes - 5 points
Cockatiels at Seven - Donna Andrews - 5 points
Finished another series:
A Little Night Murder - Nancy Martin - #10 = 100 + 5 points
Level 4 points: 120
One more series finished!
I don't know what a badge means, but I've finished the first level in my series killing challenge :)
