That's a four books series, I think.

Thank you, C.P.! It has been a great month for me on this challenge. :)

I decided to abandon a couple of series that I don't plan on continuing anytime soon.

Magic 2.0 by Scott Meyer - 1/4 I enjoyed the first book but I am in no hurry to continue the series. On hold until further notice.

Gentleman Bastard by Scott Lynch- 1/3. While I liked that first book, I am putting this on hold until I finish reading all fully published series I want to read.

The Tales of Dunk and Egg by George R.R. Martin - 1/3 I liked the first novella, but for the last 4 months I have been trying to continue the others and I seem to never be in a mood for it. On hold until further notice.

New series started: The Books of Babel by Josiah Bancroft - 1/2

Senlin Ascends - completed. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I am still undecided if I will continue the series.

The Mummy Case - completed. ⭐⭐⭐
