Is there such a thing as reading too many series?
lol thanks Lenore cause I realized I plan on trying to read 10 series this year.
That's impressive Jayme. I agree with Lenore, there is no such thing as reading too many series :)
Thank you Alycia :-)I figure I won't be able to get through all of those series this year but I hope to get a good chunk done.

You are welcome. I am sure you will make a huge dent in that undertaking. Good luck! :)
Jayme wrote: "Is there such a thing as reading too many series?"I hope not :) I'm a series addict. I get so attached to the characters I find myself choosing a series over stand alone books most of the time.
I always read series. I may not finish them all or have a list, but I am sure I am currently reading over 15 series. I have to reread a lot of the previous though.
Ok, I am going to do the Anita Blake Series! Currently Reading Guilty Pleasures and I has me hooked... I would have used the Sookie Stackhouse series but I'm already half way through and I've already read Harry Potter... so....
Little update on my progress so far :)Lords of the Underworld: 2 Completed

Kat, I really liked Blond with a wand! My favorite accidental book was Accidental Werewolf.

I thought Blonde with a Wand was so funny. It took me awhile to get in to accidental werewolf but once it got rolling it turned out excellent. I can't wait to start the next book in each series but I have 4 books on the go right now.

I have a different opinion on the rest of the accidental series, but I hope you enjoy them. I did love Cassidy's Kiss & Hell. I would say that is my favorite book of hers so far. I can't wait for the sequel to come out, My Way to Hell. It comes out in July, I think.
I'm a bit late starting this challenge, but once I saw it, I had to sign up as I have several series I'm trying to finish. The three I will focus on are below. I also hope to read Mercy Thompson this year.Lords of the Underworld
