Top Ten Tuesday – Serious Series I need to read Seriously

Posted November 8, 2022 by elzaread in Top Ten Tuesday / 38 Comments

Greetings you guys! It’s Tuesday and time to get serious about reading series’ with Top Ten Tuesday. TTT is hosted by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl. Remember to pay her a visit and to add your linky and to visit your fellow bloggers.  Seriously, you need to start reading that series you’ve been putting off ever since Eskom first introduced load shedding. 
 

Personally, I don’t read that many series. The problem with a series is you need to read them ALL, for if you take one out, none of the other bulbs will light up and you will be sitting in the dark. Seriously, you need to start reading that series you’ve been putting off ever since Eskom first introduced load shedding. 

The ones we have read the first one in the series:
 
462033 6218281 83927
Maisie Dobbs
Flavia de Luce
Phryne Fisher
11 43615 187811

 

The ones we haven’t even started yet. Do we still want to read the Meg Cabot one? Hmmmm…. Need to go dig a bit.
Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy
The Dark Tower
The Mediator

 

17675462 10822858 231604

 

The ones we’ve read more than one in the series, but still not them all.

 

The Raven Cycle
Department Q
Temperance Brennan

 

And the series that has been on our TBR the longest, but we still haven’t even started. Does it count if we’ve read quite a few other books by the same author, but they are not part of a series?

 

14921514

 

So when do we plan on starting/finishing all of these? Your guess is as good as mine. It will have to be light bulb moment.

  1. I agree I usually just read the first one in a series and then peter out. I read the Hungers Games trilogy — perhaps the last full one I’ve read. But I’ve always wanted to try the Maisie Dobbs series … I’ve heard they’re good reads.

  2. I have so many series that I’ve only read one book in. Sometimes it’s because by the time the next one is published, I’ve moved on and forgotten about it. Or it was a mediocre read so I’m uninspired to keep reading. Sometimes it’s waiting on the library and I give up…..lots of factors. I think I actually rarely DECIDE not to finish a series. It just sort of fades away behind the shiny new one. 😉
    thanks for visiting Mareli!

    • Hi Terrie!

      I really am not a big series addict. The ones I really enjoy, like The Seven Sisters, I will read diligently. And I have a few Afrikaans series’ that I also enjoy and love to keep track. But otherwise, I’m not too fazed about it.

      So sorry for the terribly late reply! Tomorrow is TTT again…

  3. I started Hitchhiker’s but never finished it. And I love humor but it didn’t… grab me? I’m such a bad blogger! I feel like I SHOULD like that book! Anyway I have thought about trying Maisie Dobbs…

    • Hi there Cholla!

      I can’t believe I still haven’t read the Temperance Brenner series. I know I’m going to love it, I just need to start with it.

      I’ve read the first one of the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy and I have enjoyed it, sure I will read the rest of the series as well!

      Thanks for the visit and so sorry for the late reply…

  4. Aaaah, the Dark Tower! I’m almost done with my reread. Still love them! I can really recommend if you like a dark, slightly paranormal, weird, fantasy horror with a twist of country western. The first book however, is NOT a good advocate. So once you’ve read that and don’t like it, PLEASE also read the second one.

  5. They look good. I don’t read many series because I get distracted by Blog Tours.

    I’ve read Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy but have no desire to read the rest of the series.

    Have a great week!
