So, this list maybe more for me than anyone. I need to really look at series I need to finish and work on that before I start too many more! I’m going to show the books I still need to read in the series. There are some series that I’m on the fence about. Please give me your opinions!! Let’s get started.. There’s going to be lot
1. Falling Kingdoms – I just started this a few weeks ago. So, I don’t feel so bad yet. lol
2. Starbound by Amie Kaufman
3. Leigh Bardugo- I have a few of these books but have not read them yet! I need to get on it.
4. The Land of Stories by Chris Colfer- Yup, I’m so behind because I own most of these and have only read one. haha.
5. Three Dark Crowns by Kendare Blake- I’ve actually got this one as a DNF. I had a problem getting into it but I’m going to make myself finish it because so many people are loving it!
6. Ember Quartet by Sabaa Tahir
7. Sarah J. Maas- Throne of Glass & A Court of Thorns & Roses
Untitled #4,5&6
8. Outlander by Diana Gabaldon – I’m almost half way through the 3rd book and had to put it aside. I’ll get to it. It’s such a meaty series.
9. The Dark Artifices by Cassandra Clare
10. Stolen Empire by Sherry D. Ficklin – I actually need to re-read the second book because I don’t remember it at all.
11. Nightshade by Andrea Cremer – I own all these and have yet to read them. This would be a major thing for my TBR list. Although, I know that the author is taking a long hiatus to finish the series.
**12. Queen of the Tearling by Erika Johansen – I loved the idea of the first book but it fell a bit short for me. A lot of people like it though. Should I continue it?!! I’m on the fence. Please, give me your opinions!!
13. The Raven Cycle by Maggie Stiefvater
14. The Iron Fey: Call of the Forgotten & Blood of Eden (I own BoE) by Julie Kagawa
I think this is good for now. That’s a lot of reading. Any that you have read or want to read? Loved/hated?
Some series that I started but I don’t know if I should finish are:
Queen of the Tearling, White Rabbit Chronicles (Showalter) and Heart of Dread (Cruz) ??
I am with you on so many of these series! I really need to work on finishing series. As for the Tearling, it is a good series if a bit hard to get into first. I loved it for its feminist dialogue especially, a certain partnership in the last book but I HATED the ending. Johansen, in my opinion, took the easy way out but after reflecting on it I do understand why she wrote it that way.

I know, there’s a few more I didn’t list but I really need finish some up! I just get so sidetracked by all the pretty new books!! Lol
Okay, maybe I’ll give Tearling another chance. Thanks for your thoughts on it. I felt like it had so much potential, but the first book fell a bit flat for me. Maybe the second book would be better!!

Yes! All the time! I just started reading Heart of Iron even though I was telling myself I need to finish all of these books! But whatever it is fantastic! I definitely liked the second book the best as there is, in my opinion, excellent character development but the ending did make me mad. But hopefully you also enjoy it.

Ahh, should I add (HoI) it to my TBR list then?? Lol I know!! I just started a bunch of new series because I got a lot of new books at a sale recently. I need to make myself not purchase any books or request any galleys for a whole month! 😂

Ahh I totally feel you! I hardly buy books anymore and I didn’t request any galleys for a month. Also I have working on my Beat the Backlist challenge so that has been helping me read some of my old books on my TBR.

I went on a break for about a year and a half and hardly read. A lot of stuff in life. So, I’m buying a lot of books that I need to finish out series and some of my favorites! You should always own your favorite books, right?! Haha. I’m trying to read my own books more this year. I’m glad that the challenge is helping you read more of your own! That’s a good challenge!
