The Motivation Behind This Blog

Kathrin is hosting a Series Challenge. It will run from December 1 to May 31, with a possible extension. There is no set number of books to read, but participants have to read the books in order to be up-to-date with the series involved. I decided that if I want to play along - which I do - I needed to figure out what series I actually read and how current I am with each one. And that's why I'm here.

Introductory Post

I've "stolen" this idea from booklogged (who blogs about books here and now also here). I hope she doesn't mind too much! :o)

The sole purpose of this blog is to keep track of the various series that I read. Of course, I always welcome your comments!
