Q: Have you broken up with a series? If so which one and why?

A: I haven’t actually broken up with any series. I tend not to read many too begin with. I have to really want to read the first book because I feel a series is so much of a commitment. However sometimes the series is so good you can’t help but to be drawn in.

  1. I haven't read a lot of series lately. I sometimes feel like all the effort is put into the first book and the series sort of fades after a couple books.

  2. Hopping through. I read so many series. It's too hard to find stand-alone books. But I know what you mean about a commitment.

    1. Yes most books nowadays are series. They all try to reel you in with the trilogies.

  3. I don't break up with many either, but for the opposite reason: I generally like series, but am a bit of a completionist. :D Following via GFC and bloglovin'. Happy Friday!

    1. Series are good but nothing beats the first book.

  4. Lol you're like my sister. She likes to read individual stories because she likes them short and sweet. Series for her especially book 2 kills it for her. I'm the opposite though, I love series because I always want to see where the next adventure lies.

    1. Lol! I agree with her. Nothing is as good as the first book.

  5. Everything seems to be a series these days; it's hard to find stand-alone books!

  7. Hi! I'm about the opposite. I really love reading new series, though I don't believe I have broken up necessarily with a series.

  9. It seems like every book I read is a series, but I tend to read more paranormal/fantasy, etc. and those usually come in trilogies.

    Here's my FF.
