Back in 2018, we were asked if we could start a Finish the Series Challenge. We did it in 2019 and each year since. So let's do it again!

Everyone is welcome to participate. For each person participating, list the series you want to finish, along with the titles to be read, and see how many you can complete in 2023. Or, you can just keep track of the series that you finish as you go. It's up to you!

Ready, go!

I'm finding this challenge a definite challenge. When I finally get to what I think is the end of a series, a new book comes out. What's the deal?
Is it just me, or is anyone else experiencing this?

It's money.

How are you doing with you reading challenges?
Only 26 more days to wrap them up!

I finished the Red Gloves series by Karen Kingsbury. I read Hannah’s Hope this year. I think I’ve started more than I’ve finished. I just started rereading the House of Winslow series that I started in college (over 20 years ago), but never completed. This will have to be next year’s challenge.
