Every year I promise to catch up on the book series that have been sitting on my shelves brooding for years. Last year I did actually manage to deal with a few which is better than I've done in the last four years combined! This was the list I wanted to get to in 2017 and my progress.
PRIORITY:
These are the series that I HAD to get caught up with in 2017!
1) Rachel Caine-The Morganville Vampires
status-read book 1 but need to reread it and whole series. 16 books! Gulp!
end status-completed!!!
2) Michael Stephen Fuchs-Arisen
status-read 1-4, need to read 5-12 and two prequel novels.
end status-still to read books 12, 13, 14
3) Darrell Maloney-Countdown to Armageddon
status-read book 1 but will reread it and the other 7.
end status-none read
4) Jennifer Estep-Elemental Assassin series
status-read book 1 and I'm terrified by how many books are coming out in this series!
end status-none read
5) Carrie Vaughn-Kitty Norville
status-read book 1, re-read this and finish series. 14? Something like that.
end status-none read
6) Rob Thurman-Cal Leandros series
status-read all 10 out so far and short stories.
end status-none read
OK this challenge was an epic fail! I did manage to read The Morganville Vampires but it took the entire year to do so!!! I didn't even get started on the other series which is disappointing. I need to try again next year.
I wouldn't consider it a fail. Look what you were able to get done. And heck, that Kitty Norville and the Estep series are huge! As long as you are enjoying what you are reading, then I say you win! And the boys agree so it must be true!
ReplyDeleteI think I kind of forgot to check up on a few of these challenges through the year so I need to be berrer organised this time! I am a bit scared of these big series! I know you're right-good books are more important than stats!
DeleteI was determined to finish the Shades of Magic trilogy this year. I’m reading the last one now. I’m hoping to finish it by the end of the year, but it’s a big book.
ReplyDeleteAj @ Read All The Things!
Too many series, that's my problem and I keep adding new ones to the list!
DeleteIt's hard to keep up on series. Especially when the author keeps writing new books! I have several series that I'm behind in, too. :D
ReplyDeleteOh I agree with you there...I blame the authors! Too many shiny new nes and a bad memory on my part!
DeleteI bet you got tempted by some new ones and never got back to these. LOL I do that all the time:)
ReplyDeleteI kept forgetting that I had other series to do...it took all year to finish the Morganville Vampires and I forgot about the rest!
