I love the series challenge that is being hosted by Kathrin, because I can be really horrible about not keeping up with series. I start lots of new ones, but end up neglecting ones I’ve already started in the process. I didn’t participate in the first season (it’s entirely possible I just didn’t know about it early enough), but I have a few series that I’d like to reconnect with in the next few months so might as well hop on board.
I’m not going to go crazy and think I’m going to catch up with J.D. Robb’s In Death series or anything (at the moment I’ve read 13 of the 27 full-length novels), but instead will focus on a few series where I have just a few books remaining to catch up. I’m also not including those series where I only have one left to catch up, since I’m already trying to keep up with those. Here’s my list:
1. Madelyn Alt – Maggie O’Neill
- #2, A Charmed Death
- #3, Hex Marks the Spot
2. Monica Ferris – Betsy Devonshire
- #9, Embroidered Truths
- #10, Sins and Needles
- #11, Knitting Bones
3. Linda O. Johnston – Kendra Ballantyne
- #2, Nothing to Fear but Ferrets
- #3, Fine-Feathered Death
- #4, Meow is for Murder
- #5, Fright of the Iguana
4. Victoria Laurie – Abby Cooper
- #4, Killer Insight
- #5, Crime Seen
5. Emilie Richards – Aggie Sloan-Wilcox
- #2, Let There Be Suspects
- #3, Beware False Profits
6. Ayelet Waldman – Juliet Applebaum
- #6, The Cradle Robbers
- #7, Bye-Bye, Black Sheep
I hope I haven’t bitten off more than I can chew! Two to three books a month doesn’t seem unreasonable and still leaves me time to read other books, so I might actually be able to finish this challenge unless something unexpected happens.
