Should I Finish This Series?

Should I Finish This Series?

June 29, 2020 Posted by angelreads Uncategorized 1 Comment

Sometimes I start a series, read the first book, fall in love, and then never pick up the rest of the series. I don’t know why I do it, but it happens way more often then I would like to admit. So today I thought I would ask my lovely followers if they can help me out. I need all to help me decide if I should finish some series. 

The series that I have unfinished are normally series that are ongoing when I start. I’m a massive binge reader, and I love reading books in a series one after the other. So waiting for the next book out and then reading it is hard for me. I read a lot of books in a year and when the next year rolls around, I sometimes forget what happens in a book. Therefore I know I need to re-read and then pick up book two and so on. 

Anyway, enough of all that. Here are the series that I haven’t had the chance to finish and don’t know if I should. Maybe you can help me decide? 

Gravity Series by Sarina Bowen: This series is very high up on my ‘to finish’ list. I’ve read the two first books and really enjoyed them and I do plan to get to the third someday. But I think I will need to do a re-read of the first two books before I pick this one up. It’s one of my favourite romance genres by one of my favourite romance authors. So I do need to get back into it. 
 
The Belles by Dhonielle Clayton: I read this one when it first came out and enjoyed it. I even have the second book, I just haven’t picked it up yet. There were parts that I enjoyed from the first books but there were parts that I didn’t love either. I do think I will finish this series, but I might wait till the last book is out and then binge read it. 
 
Themis Files by Sylvain Neuvel: I listen to the audiobook of Sleeping Giants and adored it! I even gave it nearly 5 Stars. It was seriously fantastic, but for some reasons, I have never continued. Should I? I’ve read a couple of reviews of the other books and it sounds like it’s going to be fantastic, so I know I really should.
  
The Trials of Apollo Series by Rick Riordan: You may ask why I haven’t finished this series? And you know what I don’t have an answer. I honestly have no idea. I’ve read pretty much every other Rick Riordan book. So I should get on reading this series. I’ve loved every book from Riordan. 
 
Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor: This is another one where I loved the first book and haven’t continued. I tend to do this with Laini Taylor books and I really don’t understand why, because I love them. I really do need to finish this series, but I think I will need to do a re-read.
 
Those are the series that I still have yet to finish. Which ones should I finish? Should I read them all? Let’s Chat!

    I haven’t tried any of these books but I do have The Belles on my list. I’m really bad about finishing series so I should probably do a similar post.

I have a love-hate relationship with this series. I have a love-hate relationship with this series. But I ended up really enjoying this one. It’s best friends to fake dating to-lovers. It’s always been you, bad-boy/good-girl, and I loved that. While Save Your Breath has quite a few tropes, it really leads itself to it, and it works. 

Aleks and Mia have known each other for years now. Since they were teenagers, that angst has been building up this whole time. And you can tell right from the get-go, it’s fantastic. I even wanted more of it, because I love pain. When Aleks went to live with Mia’s family as a teenager, sparks flew, but for many reasons, they both put their feelings aside. And well, now they are not only going to be fake-dating, but they might as well be engaged, too. 

I really enjoyed seeing how both Aleks and Mia both tried to hide how they were feeling throughout the whole ‘fake-dating’ situation, but anyone could see it. They know each other as no one else does. Aleks has a lot going on, and while I do think this was brushed over a little too much, Mia is his centre. Mia is a massive music star and is a female in the industry, so yeah, people don’t respect her. Obvsiouly because why couldn’t a female star be badass and write about the things that she has gone through? Aleks and Mia get each other, and that is very clear from the start; they are both just trying to squash everything. We get to see them slowly start to show how they feel, and well, one night it all explodes. 

Overall, I enjoyed this one a lot; it’s not my favourite of the series, but I had a great time reading it. I liked Aleks and Mia a lot as characeters and while I think the mental health aspect could have been explored a whole lot more, I can see why it wasn’t. The romance was slow and spicy, the angst was great, and the payoff for these two was what they needed.

Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I onl Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I only ended up reading 3 books in. 3 pretty fun books but one of my slowest readings months in a while. 

And I’m going to be honest here it’s because I’ve been constantly reading Heated Rivalry fanfics. 🤷‍♀️ I’m having the best time though. 

How was your reading in February? Any 5  star reads?

January was a really solid reading month. I read s January was a really solid reading month. I read some books that had been on my tbr for some time, reread a few things that peaked my interest. I also started a few new series. And just had a good time!
