Let me preface this by saying the author I have truly given up on does not do series' which personally was a blessing, because the idea of reading something else by her would be torture. So instead I picked Meghan Quinn in her defense I had only read one book by her and honestly it destroyed me. If you are new to her do not start with (or you know ever read) The Upside of Falling

Thank you. I have 2 questions, 1) Can you reread something? (It's been 11 years...)
2) I was looking for trilogies. Does Shadows work as a trilogy? It's a trilogy but it's part of a bigger series also.

2 from 4th
1 from the last one (and you don't have to be starting with 1st book each time)
2) Una-book-bomber (5 books):
Read one book from each of the genres. It does not have to be the first book in the series, but it must be a series book, not a stand-alone:
chick-lit
romance
mystery
pnr/urban-fantasy/fantasy/sci-fi
young adult
3) Spree Series Killer (1+ book):
Try out a totally new author. If the book turns out to be a stinker, you have to TRY AGAIN. Repeat until you find a series that you like and are willing to keep on reading in the future.
4) Author-ican Psycho (1 book)
Try a book from the author you've "given up" on - call it one more try. It can be the same series you previously found only so-so, or a totally different series by the same author. It's up to you.
5) Dr. Hannibal Lecturer (1 book):
Start on that series that everybody is praising so much but you keep postponing it for later.
Just read it already. Go on!
6) The Book Strangler (1+ books):
Read a whole series from the beginning to the end (or to the last published book). You choose whether it's going to be a 15-book-long-monster or a 1-book-long-freshly-started-baby series...
7) 3rd Degree (3 books):
Read a trilogy. An old fashioned trilogy that wraps up at book 3.
BONUS: Bloody Mary (1 book):
A series with a strong female kick-ass protagonist, something like: police detective, body builder, warrior. So for example LKH Anita Blake would work.

Yesterday was pretty awesome. I told my husband I had to finish a book to complete a reading challenge I’d been working on all year and he left me alone to do it. Even made dinner specifically to help out. LOL He was very serious about it. Keeping him.
Mod
Great story. I would say he is a keeper.
