I have a harder time sticking to a series in recent years & can take forever in between books. I do enjoy easy series like cozy mysteries or romance. The world-building fantasies though—I have to love the characters if I‘m going to tackle them. Also, I don‘t have to buy multiple books with stand alone.

BookmarkTavern Totally fair! I feel the same way about cozy mystery series! Thanks for sharing! 6d

I like to read a mix of both. Like @BookmarkTavern I don‘t especially like cliffhangers.

I like books that are part of a series but can also be read on their own. The tagged book is an example. It‘s part of an entertaining series, but the action skipped forward from the 1870s to the 1930s. You don‘t need to know all the details of the earlier books to enjoy this one.

Susanita I also don‘t like sequels just for the sake of having a sequel. They‘re not always necessary and don‘t always add to the story. 6d
Chrissyreadit i love a solid series- but prefer when it‘s already completed and i don‘t have to wait for a next book 6d
BookmarkTavern I really loved this book! And yeah, stand alone books in a shared universe are great! Thanks for sharing! 6d

I love them equally. Give me both, as long as the characters and story are good.

Love them both, but my problem is that I tend to not finish a series, even if I love it. I get sidetracked easily, I guess. 😂

Prairiegirl_reading My problem with series is that I don‘t want to start until the series is completed but I also don‘t want to read the whole series and nothing else. So either I never start or I never finish. 6d
dabbe @Prairiegirl_reading 🎯!!! 😂 6d
BookmarkTavern LOL I can totally understand that. I have a couple series I need to get back to. Thanks for posting! 6d

DogMomIrene I get side tracked a lot too as an adult. When I was in school, I could devour series. But even in retirement, it‘s a struggle🤷🏻‍♀️ 6d

I don‘t really have a preference, it kind of depends on my mood.

But what I don‘t want is a book series where the books end in the middle of the story as a “cliffhanger”. There‘s a difference between a teasing cliffhanger for another story and ending with the book‘s main conflict unresolved.

#SundayFunday Have a marvelous day, and don‘t forget to tag me in your posts!

To stand apart means giving yourself the critical break that media cycles and narratives will not, allowing yourself to believe in another world while living in this one. It is a perfect image of this world when justice has been realized with and for everyone and everything that is here. To stand apart is to look at the world (now) as it could be (the future), with all of the hope and contemplation that this entails. #SundayFunday #BookmarkTavern

BookmarkTavern Oh that‘s good. Thank you for sharing! 2w

This is the true story of Anne Wilkins, who at 63 decided to ride across the U.S. It was inspiring to read about the people who helped her in her journey along the way.

BookmarkTavern Sounds fascinating! Thanks for answering! 2w
