C.P. Cabaniss (cpcabaniss) | 8238 comments How is everyone doing with reading series? I've found some new favorites this month, so I hope it's going well for everyone else!


message 155: by Just A Ginger (new)

Just A Ginger | 116 comments Ugh, I've had a horrible, horrible reading month. I've finished three trilogies, which I didn't enjoy, and started two other trilogies which one is okay, and the other is blah.

So I started reading Perfect Chemistry for the third time, and I'm going to finally finish the trilogy. Who the hell reads book one three times and never reads the rest? Me.

I am also going through my books and trying to get rid of a lot of them.

C.P. Cabaniss (cpcabaniss) | 8238 comments Aww, sorry they haven't been very good, Ginger. :/

I assume you like Perfect Chemistry, since you've read it before, so I hope the rest of the trilogy is good for you!

I need to get rid of some books as well.


message 157: by Just A Ginger (new)

Just A Ginger | 116 comments I love the first book, I'm kind of scared the next two won't live up to the first, maybe that's why I haven't went on lol.

It's so hard, I'm just really trying to be honest with myself, 'I've had this for years, will I ever really read it?' and I check the rating on goodreads, and check to see if the library has it, it helps to ease my mind about getting rid of them.


message 158: by Story_girl (new)

Story_girl | 444 comments Hey Ginger, the books in the Perfect chemistry series can be read as standalones....so even if you have read and forgotten the first... it shouldn't be a problem

Of course my personal favorite was the first book....but I still enjoyed reading the others :)


message 159: by Just A Ginger (new)

Just A Ginger | 116 comments I know, I think I just keep using it as an excuse to read the first book over and over again lol.

Jackie (jackiegirl02) | 4614 comments Scores will be updated in the morning.

Story_girl | 444 comments @Ginger....oh I can totally understand that! It was a great book :D

C.P. Cabaniss (cpcabaniss) | 8238 comments Sibil, when do you want to read Fool Moon? I plan to read that one at some point as well, so I would be up to buddy read it.

That would be great! And I'd like to start it sooner than later, but it's just because I'm curious and I can read it every day, it's the same. Can Saturday be a good day?


message 181: by C.P. (new)

C.P. Cabaniss (cpcabaniss) | 8238 comments Yes, I should be able to start Saturday or Sunday, so that would be fine. I just need to pick up a copy at the library. I was just there a little while ago, I should have looked at this thread sooner!


message 182: by C.P. (new)

If you can't get a copy or you can't return to the library just say so and we read it when you are ok!
And thanks for the thread!


message 184: by C.P. (new)

C.P. Cabaniss (cpcabaniss) | 8238 comments No, that works. I just checked and they have one. I have to pick my sister up at work and the library is really close, so I will just stop by and get it then. :) I'm always there anyway, haha.

Anna 'Bookbuyer' (bookbuyer) | 9905 comments I really need to update this challenge soon. I keep forgetting when I'm posting my reviews for the monthly challenges. :/


message 187: by C.P. (new)

C.P. Cabaniss (cpcabaniss) | 8238 comments At least you still have time! This is the most participation we've ever had for a quarterly challenge.

That's what I was thinking. I'm going to try to update this when my reading slacks off for the week. :)

It's always much more fun when there is 'competition'. I makes me want to read more to be at the top. ^-^

C.P. Cabaniss (cpcabaniss) | 8238 comments It's definitely nice to have competition. :)
