Question of the Week
"If you find a book that looks interesting but is part of a series, do you always start with the first title?"
Not always. I usually prefer to read a series in order but if I see a book that I think is interesting I will read it. Many times I will go back and read any books that I haven't read in the series but that doesn't stop me from reading a book I really want to read.
I am taking part in two Christmas Reading Challenges this Year
They are:
This one runs from November 15th (that's this Monday) through December 31st
This one Runs from November 26th through January 6th
Here is my List:
A simple Amish Christmas by Vannetta Chapman
White Christmas Pie by Wanda E. Brunsetter
Grace by Shelley Shepard Gray
Plum Pudding Murder by Joanne Fluke
Gingerbread Cookie Murder by Joanne Fluke, Laura Levine, and Leslie Meier
The Christmas Cookie Killer by Livia E. Washburn
I really want to get to all of these
Hello I am a new follower from the Hop. I see we like the same books. Love the blog. I have a few of the books you want and they are great. I love the amish books and Joanne Fluke among others.

I can dive right into the middle of a book series if the series' story
ReplyDeletedoesn't run chronologically.
That is to say, if each novel in a series is a stand-alone story (like Lee
Child's Reacher novels) then I don't feel the need to start with book one.
On the other hand, a series of books (like Richard Hatch's Battlestar
Galactica novels) can't be read out of sequence since each new book builds
upon the story of the previous entry in the series.
Happy Book Blogger Hop Friday!
