Okay, I'm in. I'm going to look over my TBR pile this weekend to see what fits the bill. Wish I'd found this earlier though. Just read Silver Borne by Patricia Briggs, Blood of the Demon by Diana Rowlands this week. Oh well, its almost time for my anual reread of the Jacqueline Carey's books before the June new release. Do rereads count?
Daffodil wrote: "Okay, I'm in. I'm going to look over my TBR pile this weekend to see what fits the bill. Wish I'd found this earlier though. Just read Silver Borne by Patricia Briggs, Blood of the Demon by Dian..."Daffodil, ask Kasia if it's OK to put your start-up date back enough to use those books. The rules say you have one year from your start-up date, so as long as your start-up and ending dates are one year apart, you should be all right.
Have fun with it - I have!

You can also backdate your starting date if you want to include books you have already read.

Duration 1/1/2010 to 31/12/2010 Completed 11/29 Update 19/5/10 1) Jack the Page Ripper (15 books):
Take 5 series, read:
5 books
4 books
3 books
2 books
1 book
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, warrion. So for example LKH Anita Blake would work.
After looking over my TBR shelf, I decided I really don’t need to backdate my startup in order to include anything I read at the start of the month. ::sigh:: I already have plenty of unread series sitting on my shelves. Our local Waldenbooks was one of the 200 closed at the start of the year and I made a lot of purchases at 40%-50%-60% off. But, I have a few holes. So, its a horrible burden, but I’ll have to make a trip to the bookstore to get a few missing items.Serial Reader Challenge: April 23, 2010 through April 23, 2011
1) Jack the Page Ripper (15 books):
Take 5 series, read:
5 from 1st: Jacquelyn Frank’s The Nightwalkers (I started this series, but never finished. So I’ll reread the first two and finish with the next 3)
1. Jacob
2. Gideon
3. Elijah
4. Damien
5. Noah
4 from 2nd: Jeaniene Frost’s Night Huntress (Ditto, reread the first and read the next 3)
1. Halfway to the Grave
2. One Foot in the Grave
3. At Grave’s End
4. Destined for an Early Grave
3 from 3rd: Faith Hunter’s The Rogue Mage (I loved her Jane Yellowrock, Skinwalker books so I thought I would try some of her other work)
1. Bloodring
2. Seraphs
3. Host
2 from 4th: Caitlin Kittredge’s Nocturne City
1. Pure Blood (#2)
2. Second Skin (#3)

young adult -- TBD
3) Spree Series Killer (1+ book):
Totally new author. I have a couple possibilities. Larissa Ione or Terry Spear
4) Author-ican Psycho (1 book)
Retry an author. Hmmm. I read the first couple of Lori Handeland’s Moon books, but I just couldn’t get into them and didn’t care enough to follow up on the series. But recently I was eyeing the Phoenix Chronicles and wondering if they were any good. This is just the excuse I need to go buy more books!
5) Dr. Hannibal Lecturer (1 book):
Praised books, I’m going to have to think about this one. TBD
6) The Book Strangler (1+ books):
An entire series. TBD. If Terry Spear’s Wolf books are any good, I’ll move them down to this category.
7) 3rd Degree (3 books):
Trilogy, TBD.

I want to try this but I am not ready to start yet. I need to come up with a list first. Can I post a list and start later or once I post the list the challenge starts?
Your challenge starts the moment you start reading the first book.So you can post your list, and then when you are ready to begin, just post your start and end date.
Challenge duration is a year.

Thanks Yz. I was thinking I should wait until June or July to start because I have so many books in progress or that I want to read before I begin. I think this would really help me clean out a lot of my unread books on my Kindle :) This is a great idea for a challenge and I hope I can make it work in my favor. :)

Okay just finished my Authorican Psycho. (Retry an author) I finished Any Given Doomsday by Lori Handeland on my lunch hour. I'm going to give it some thought before I do a review. But, initial feelings. She had the bones of a GREAT series, but somehow the first book fell short. Some things were right on target, but others were troubling. And in some cases, I could see where the author was going but it didn't come across properly. I'm going to list my likes and dislikes tonight and then decide my overall rating from there.

I have a question. Originally I chose the "Lucky Trilogy" by Carly Phillips for the #7 Category - 3rd Degree. I'm having alot of trouble reading the first book. Am I allowed to make changes to my orginal list and choose a different trilogy?
