Have you ever read a series where all the books blended together? Where all the books were so similar and repetitive that it felt like you were reading the same thing over and over again? Or have you ever just read a book series too quickly that you don’t remember what happened in what book […]
Is it just me, or are there a lot of sequels being released recently? I guess there are always lots of new sequels, but this month it seems like there are a lot more than normal. And not just sequels, but also third, fourth, etc. books in a series. I love reading series and I […]
