First in a Series Challenge
Joy is hosting a new challenge called First in a Series Challenge and since I'm such a series addict I have to join this one. Rules are simple enough: read 12 books that are first in a series from Jan-Dec. 2008.
Here is my tentative list that I will pick from, but it is subject to change as Jan. is still quite a ways off and I may not be able to wait that long to start some of these.

Hooray! I'm so glad you're joining us! I love your list. Now I have many more to look up and add to my own. :)
ReplyDeleteI know that I will be reading some off my possibility list before January, but that's okay. There are many to be had!
Nicola, I see that you didn't link your blog post for the First in a Series Challenge. Would you like me to do that for you? If not, come back and link up! :)
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I totally forgot about the Kay Scarpetta series. Thanks!
This is what I love about these challenges and the links that Joy provides...we get to meet some great fellow bloggers and learn about more books!!! What can be better than that! You have several here that I am going to add to my TBR pile! Thanks for stopping by and saying hello. BTW...I started reading one of my 1st in a series books last night (is that cheating???) ;0
ReplyDeletei'm going to read The Bone Collector and Inkheart for this challenge. i really enjoy the Alex Cooper and Kay Scarpetta series; i hope you will too. i've read some of the Brother Cadfael series as well; i guess that's one i need to get caught up on!
ReplyDeletehappy reading!
