Hello book lovers!
Something you should know about me is that I was not a huge fan of series. I love falling in love with book characters and fictional places, but reading series was something I tried to avoid because when I finished them, I was left missing everything about the books and so I thought it was better for me to avoid that hole series would leave in me.
However, one of my reading goals for 2019 was to read more series, even if I was left with book hangover or in a reading slump, I wanted to make myself go through that suffering because books are worth it. I even made a list in my journal of the series I had started but never finished and series that I wanted to start and finish, of course.
I have to confess I made a very big and ambitious list, it was going to be almost impossible to read all the series I listed in one year, however I’m so proud of myself because I managed to read and finish 11 series tho! It might not be a big number for a lot of people, but for someone like me that liked standalones more than series, this is a huge thing!
With all that being said, here are the series I read in 2019. They are in no particular order. I linked the first book of the series to their Goodreads page, in case you’re interested, just click on the title of the series.
1. Stalking Jack the Ripper by Kerri Maniscalco
2. The Shadow and Bone Trilogy by Leigh Bardugo
3. Harmony Black by Craig Schaefer
4. The Shifting Tides by James Maxwell
5. Villains Series by V.E. Schwab
6. Six of Crows Series by Leigh Bardugo
7. Flame in the Mist Series by Renée Ahdieh
8. Illuminae Files Series by Jay Kristoff and Amie Kauffman
9. Caraval Series by Stephanie Garber
10. The Nevernight Chronicle Series by Jay Kristoff
11. The Heroes of Olympus by Rick Riordan
12. Percy Jackson and the Olympians by Rick Riordan (I’m counting this one even though it was a reread)
I enjoyed all of the series I read last year and I’m truly excited for the ones I’ll read in 2020.
In the comments tell me if you like reading series and which one is your favorite or favorites.
Until the next post!
Happy reading 💙

I really enjoyed – aka loved – the shadow and bone series. even though not a lot of people tend to enjoy it as much. Caraval trilogy was going to be one of my favs as well, but Finale sadly disappointed me 😦

I don’t know why people don’t like Shadow and Bone, is a very entertaining story. Oh no, it’s so sad when you think a series is going to be one of your favorites but doesn’t 😞
