janeycanuck Oh, I will be jumping on this train again! I have a few series in progress and a few more I‘d like to start. I need to get the page in my planner set up! Thanks for hosting, @Andrew65 and @TheSpineView 1d
Andrew65 @janeycanuck Always great to have you with us. Here‘s hoping you get to some great series in 2025. 😍 1d
OriginalCyn620 I‘ll join in! Need to start planning! 1d
Andrew65 @OriginalCyn620 Me too, I was a bit all over the place with my series reads this year. Need to be more focused in 2025. 1d
AllDebooks Count me in. I have so many new series I plan on starting but need to finish up a few first. 😅 1d
Andrew65 @AllDebooks I know that feeling! Best of luck. 😍 1d
kwmg40 Count me in! I did make good progress on a couple of my focus series in 2024 and hope to again in 2025. 1d
majkia I'll join! Trying to get a bunch of series read. 1d
Laughterhp I‘m hoping to join in 2025! I‘m not sure what series I‘m going to read yet though! 1d
Bookwormjillk I‘ll join but I haven‘t decided on a series yet. I‘ll figure it out this week. Thanks for hosting! 1d
CocoReads I‘m so very close to catching up on Lucas Davenport. Otherwise, not sure. But I‘ll try to remember to tag in when I‘ve finished something. 1d
PaperbackPirate I would love to join you both again! This challenge was good inspiration to get some of series finished or progressed this year. I‘m most looking forward to finishing The Lunar Chronicles in 2025. 📚 1d
julesG I'm a fan of series!! So glad we're about to start the third year together. 1d
TheBookHippie I‘ve got some Chloe Gong to do this year and then I‘ve got some Lucy Maud Montgomery books I‘ve always wanted to complete! 1d
Eggs 🙌🏻📚📚👍🏼 1d
Mollyanna I am in again next year. Love this challenge. Thanks to you and @TheSpineView for hosting. 1d
Andrew65 @kwmg40 That‘s great, good to have you with us again. 😍 1d
Librarybelle Nice! I‘ve been reading series this year but not using the tag, so hopefully this will be my reminder to do that for next year! Thanks for hosting to both you and @TheSpineView ! 1d
Andrew65 @majkia Great to have you with us. 😍 1d
Andrew65 @Laughterhp That‘s great, I am yet to make my choices- want to be more focused next year. 😍 1d
Andrew65 @Bookwormjillk Brilliant! That‘s why I posted today thought it gave time people to think about the choices in the run up to the new year. 😍 1d
Andrew65 @CocoReads You‘ve reminded I need to get back to the Lucas Davenport series, and think that will be one of the series I target. Great to have you with us. 😍 1d
Andrew65 @PaperbackPirate That‘s brilliant! I‘m wanting to explore the Lunar Chronicles. 😍 1d
Andrew65 @julesG Where does the time go!!! Great to have you with us. 😍 1d

Andrew65 @Eggs 😍😊😍 1d
Andrew65 @Mollyanna Great to have you with us again, and we both love hosting this. 😍 1d
Kenyazero I‘ll join! I‘m sure I‘ll come up with some other series I haven‘t finished later on, but I‘m going to say Ranma 1/2 because my husband picked it up when I recently reorganized my manga collection and he‘s in love with it, so I‘m going to read past the first four volumes finally. This is a continuation from when I was a teen! 1d
Andrew65 @Librarybelle Great to have you with us, and we do love hosting this. 😍 (edited) 1d
Andrew65 @Kenyazero Great to have you with us, always good to have some series with us through the years. 😍 1d
PaperbackPirate I think you will like The Lunar Chronicles- very fast paced with socially conscious messaging. 1d
Andrew65 @PaperbackPirate Thanks, definitely a series I would like to get to next year. 1d
PaperbackPirate Good luck! 1d
Andrew65 @PaperbackPirate Thanks 😊 1d
Roary47 Going to work on continuing to shrink my huge list. 😅 1d
Andrew65 @Roary47 Me too! Great to have you with us. 😍 1d
julieclair I‘m in! I‘m changing my approach. For 2024, my plan was “wide and shallow”, dipping in and out of a number of series. I discovered I lost the feeling of continuity that makes series reading unique and special. So for 2025, I‘m going “narrow and deep” and plan to read one book each month from the Kate Shackleton mysteries, starting with a reread of the first book, 1d
JacqMac I have been seriously considering diving into Brandon Sanderson. There is just so much, I keep putting it off. Maybe this is the time. lol 1d
Ruthiella @julieclair I love that approach! 1d
Ruthiella I am definitely back in for another round in 2025! 👍 1d
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick I'm nearly finished with the final book of A Series of Unfortunate Events. Next year, I'm focusing on #192025 and the #52books challenges, so I think I will be able to get a few more books read within series. 1d
DieAReader 🤓📚You know I‘m game!! So many series to choose from but here are a few: Chris Carter, Michael Connelly, Kathy Reichs, Kat Martin. 1d
AnnCrystal First time that I'm joining on for this readathon 🥳📚📚📚...I've been planning. I will be continuing with the Riley Thorn Mysteries, hopefully finish the Chronicles of the Necromancer series by continuing with The Fallen Kings Cycle books by Gail Z. Martin, and...my growing list is becoming a bit too unrealistic 🤔😂📚💫. 1d
OutsmartYourShelf I'll be concentrating on finishing the Miss Marple & Poirot books by Agatha Christie as part of completing #192025

For the first few months I'll also be re-reading the Maeve Kerrigan series by Jane Casey ready for the latest one to be released in April/May. Still lots to read for JD Robb's 'In Death' series as well (I think I'm about halfway at the moment). There'll be more series that I can't think of atm.
(edited) 1d
Texreader Im in again!! Yay!! 1d
mrp27 I plan on joining for the 3rd year in a row! Great way to keep myself current on all my series, to catch up on a series and to discover new series! 1d
Fortifiedbybooks I'll join in the series fun! I have several cozy mystery and SciFi series I need to get caught up on. 1d
julieclair @Ruthiella Thanks! We‘ll see if I can stick to it, and not get distracted by all the other “shiny objects” series out there. 🤪 24h
MonicaLoves2Read I'm in bc there's a ton I need to catch up on. Thanks for hosting 😀 23h
Meshell1313 I‘m so in again! Love sharing and seeing what series everyone is reading. In 2025 I‘m going to read all of The Lord of the Rings books- I never read them and love all things fantasy so it seems like a wrong I must right! I also might dive into the Brandon Sanderson world- it seems very daunting. 21h
Meshell1313 @JacqMac just saw this after I commented! I also want to dive into Sanderson! Was thinking of starting with the Stormlight triology- what are you thinking? 21h
JacqMac @Meshell1313 It‘s all kind of overwhelming. Everything I have seen says to start with Mistborn, so I think that‘s my plan. 21h
Andrew65 @JacqMac I‘m also wanting to start the Sanderson books. Planned for it this year but never got to it. Perhaps we can all support and encourage each other. @Meshell1313 20h
JacqMac @Andrew65 That would be really great! 20h
Andrew65 @JacqMac Sure we could pull something together and would be easier as a small group of people. 19h
TheSpineView @Mollyanna YW! So glad to have you. 18h
TheSpineView @janeycanuck Yw! Glad to have you! 18h
CarolynM I‘ve got a few series on the go that I hope to be going on with in 2025. The one I‘m most looking forward to continuing is Viveca Sten‘s Sandhamn Murders series which I discovered in Sweden (in Sandhamn, in fact) 17h
Jess861 Would love to join in as I am hoping to read more of the Mistborn series next year. 16h
ferskner I'm in! I'm not 100% how it works (I'm out of Litsy practice) but I'm eager to finish some series. 14h
JacqMac @Andrew65 A Cosmere buddy read perhaps? There are 20 Cosmere books in total. I found a suggested reading order that looks pretty good. I looked at Mistborn. The first three books, Era 1, are around 600 pages each. The first book is divided into five parts. Maybe one part a week is a good place to start? 8h
Meshell1313 @Andrew65 @JacqMac sounds like a perfect buddy read to me! ❤️ 4h
Andrew65 @JacqMac That sounds a good way to go. Which book are they suggesting to start with? May even be others who want to join. @Meshell1313 (edited) 4h
Andrew65 @julieclair Yes, last year I had a very wide, very shallow approach and need to be more focussed too in 2025. Sounds like you‘ve got a good strategy. Good to have you with us. 😍 4h
Andrew65 @Ruthiella Great to have you with us again 😍 4h
Andrew65 @Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick A great way to multitask. Great to have you with us. 😍 4h
Andrew65 @DieAReader I will definitely be continuing with Kathy Reichs, Chris Cater and Michael Connelly. Currently have the next two Reichs books out from the library. Great to have you with us again. 😍 4h
Andrew65 @AnnCrystal Great to have you with us! Sounds like you have some great plans, I over reached on series this year so trying to narrow it down. 😍 4h
Andrew65 @OutsmartYourShelf I love the Maeve Kerrigan series. Some good choices you have there. Great to have you with us. 😍 4h
Andrew65 @Texreader Great to have you with us again 😍 4h
Andrew65 @mrp27 Great to have you with us again, this challenge certainly helps us target the books. 😍 4h
Andrew65 @Fortifiedbybooks Be great to have you with us! Best of luck 😍 4h
Andrew65 @MonicaLoves2Read Love hosting this. Great to have you with us. 😍 4h
Andrew65 @Meshell1313 Some great reading ahead of you, great to have you with us 😍 4h
Andrew65 @CarolynM Great to have you with us. Love where you found the Sandhamn Murders Seriws. 😍 4h
JacqMac @Andrew65 @Meshell1313 Excellent!! I will break it all down and make a post with the details in a little bit. I‘ll tag you both and open it up for others to join us. 4h
Andrew65 @Jess861 We‘d love to have you join us. Looks like a few of us are targeting that series and would make for a great buddy read. 4h
Andrew65 @ferskner It‘s very easy going. You can choose any series you want to target in 2025, as many or as few as works for you and you can add any to it as you go through the year. When you‘ve read any books in the series just post it with the hashtag #SeriesLove2025 and tag me and @TheSpineView.

Great to have you with us 😍
4h
Andrew65 @JacqMac Great, as well as @Meshell1313 it looks like @Jess861 is wanting to read the Mistborn books so she might want to join us for any she hasn‘t read yet. Love it when a plan comes together. (edited) 4h
peanutnine Yes I love this challenge! Sometimes I feel like all I read are series since I'm always starting new ones! 😂 3h
Jess861 @Andrew65 @JacqMac @Meshell1313 - I'd absolutely love to join 😊! I've only read the first book in the trilogy (Mistborn: The Final Empire) and I really enjoyed it....it's been a while since I read it so I wouldn't mind re-reading it. (edited) 3h

These are my goals for #SeriesLove2025. I hope to finish TOG, and the Left Behind series (I'm about halfway through each), and read through the Anne of Green Gables series, which I've never done. I have the mini series with Megan Follows and loved it, but never read the books.

Thanks @debinhawaii for creating this fun play-card & for the tag 🌺😉👍💝.

1- we begin our Christmas decorating Nov. 3rd and try to have it all ready by mid-Nov. We're running a bit behind schedule on the finishing touches, yet this is a joy because transforming our house for Christmas is a magical delight!

2- I joined on for #SeriesLove2025 here on Litsy 📚🥳.

3- enjoying a bit of reading time beside the Christmas tree each evening 🎄📚.

👇

AnnCrystal 4- it's been remaining cool, and rain is in the forecast... hopefully I can soon read with my favorite soundtrack of rain playing 🌧️💫📚.

5- have began reading one of the four Christmas books that I plan on reading through November/December. I'm usually a mood reader, yet I'm attempting to add more Christmas books to my reading history log...🎅📚🤶.

#ReadAway2024 @DieAReader @Andrew65 @GHABI4ROSES

Yesterday I finished The Mafia Prince's Baby and started The Sugar Queen for the #AuthorAMonth challenge. @Soubhiville

Currently sitting at 265 books read for the year. Still want to make it to 300. Would also like to reach 2,500 hours. That is a new goal for me. I want to end the year on a bang. 🤞

DieAReader 🤓📚Excellent!!! You‘re doing awesome💕 1mo
TheSpineView @DieAReader Thanks! It will close on these goals. 1mo

This is a dark romance series. Enjoyed it and even found myself trying to give the characters advise. But it ended on a cliffhanger! I will definitely read the next book. 4⭐️ Note the trigger warnings if you are sensitive to those things.
Also, book is not in the database so tagged another book by the author.
