Rhea (roaminglibrarian) | 16 comments So, I've been reading a particular author, Ella Quinn, and noticed that 3 of her books take place at the same time. However, they are each part of a different series. They are: The Marquis She's Been Waiting For (Marriage Game #9), Believe In Me (Worthingtons #6) & You Never Forget Your First Earl (Lords of London #1). Is there a spot for someone to add a note regarding the overlap?

Betsy | 605 comments Possibly in the descriptions for the series. But simply an overlap in time doesn't seem that big a deal. Do the separate series also share characters, even minor ones?


message 3: by Rhea (new)

Rhea (roaminglibrarian) | 16 comments Yeah, so the 3 books I mention are actually about a group of friends! I read them out of order, so I was a little mystified about what was going on. they also share other characters like siblings, matchmaking grannies, etc.

message 5: by Rhea (new)

Rhea (roaminglibrarian) | 16 comments I don't think so.


message 6: by Miriam (new)

Miriam | 1831 comments Since they aren't an official sub series, and they are such different points of the actual series and only one book from each series. I would avoid putting notes in the series descriptions.

If more of the series themselves overlap we could link the series. That happens rather often with some authors. Otherwise, I would just note it in your reviews.
