Who Loves a Good Series?

Saturday, October 10, 2009

When I read a story, I usually fall in love with one or more of the characters. Therefore, when I discover another book by that same author is coming out, continuing the story on, I gotta read it… I just gotta. I’m one of those series junkies, you see. If a certain book I’m into is part of a series, I MUST read all of them.

So, today I’m sharing a list of romance series I’ve been into lately. As you will soon see, my tastes range from historical romance to romantic suspense to paranormal romance. And for your convenience, I’m listing the books in each series in chronological order (don’t you just hate having to read a series out of order).


Please let me know about any other good series going on out there. I love discovering new characters to follow.

  3. I've read some of these authors, but not all! So funny, I'm posting about series tomorrow!
    Sometimes I like series. It depends. I've read almost all of Garwood's books. :-)

  4. Agg, there are so many series I missed. But, sorry, Molly. The Arbor University Series could fit well in here too.

    And for for FTC's new rules about blogging reviews about books, I should mention that none of the books I noted were given to me for free. Every book I read on the list, I bought. Sigh. I'm so going broke.

  5. If you like Suzanne Enoch, try her contemp series about the female thief. There are (I think) 4 books about the same couple and I literally druel when I see a new one is out.

    A few other great series in paranormal (which you know I love) are by Kresley Cole, Lora Leigh (breed series), and Nalini Singh. But honestly, there are too many great ones to list - though you did a good job, lol!

  6. I realized that I missed this post. Very interesting. Hmmm, I haven't read the Princes Trilogy. These books sound like they are exactly what I would love. Hmmm, now I MUST formulate a plan on getting hubby to take me out this weekend for said books. *wheels are spinning, spinning swiftly* :)
