Reading Series I Missed

There are so many series in the world that we'll never be able to get to. So many books that we won't make time for, or we'll just never know about, and it got me thinking. I've read some of the big hard hitting children's books that are out there (Harry Potter, Percy Jackson) but I haven't read them all. I've not read The Northern Lights, I haven't read Eragon, A Series of Unfortunate Events, and many more that I haven't listed, and it got me thinking, I really want to read some series that I haven't read before.

So I want to try it. I want to pick up one of the books I've never read and try it out, give an opinion on it. So, I'm going to try it.

So, I am going to be trying one series per month, and trying the first book from that series. If I like it, I will continue, and if I don't, I'll move onto another one. I have some pretty high hopes for this because you hear a lot of good things about these books. And here's the thing, if I don't like the book, then that's fine too! I'm not doing this for anything serious or to hate on these, books I'm just going into them to see.

I already have a few ideas of books I'd like to read, so here's a small list.

Eragon by Christopher Paolini
A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket
The Northern Lights by Philip Pullman
Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer

I'm going to start with the A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket, because I already have that book in my possession so it's just an easy one to begin with, but I'd love to hear which ones you think I should read next!

And that's it for now. But, if you have any ideas please let me know, I'm very excited to see if I like them or if I'm just not the right age for them and other things. So hit me up with ideas and hopefully this goes well!

Spoiler Free Review: The Princess and the Fangirl

Title: The Princess and the Fangirl Author: Ashley Poston Publisher: Quirk Books Publishing Date: April 2nd 2019 Goodreads blurb: The Prince and the Pauper gets a modern makeover in this adorable, witty, and heartwarming young adult novel set in the Geekerella universe by national bestselling author Ashley Poston. Imogen Lovelace is an ordinary fangirl on an impossible mission: save her favorite character, Princess Amara, from being killed off from her favorite franchise, Starfield. The problem is, Jessica Stone - the actress who plays Princess Amara - wants nothing more than to leave the intense scrutiny of the fandom behind. If this year's ExcelsiCon isn't her last, she'll consider her career derailed. When a case of mistaken identity throws look-a-likes Imogen and Jess together, they quickly become enemies. But when the script from the Starfield sequel leaks, and all signs point to Jess, she and Imogen must trade places to find the person responsible. That...

Spoiler Free Review: In an Absent Dream

Title: In an Absent Dream (Book 4 in The Wayward Children Series) Author: Seanan McGuire Publisher: Tor Books Publishing Date: January 8th 2019 Goodreads blurb: This fourth entry and prequel tells the story of Lundy, a very serious young girl who would rather study and dream than become a respectable housewife and live up to the expectations of the world around her. As well she should. When she finds a doorway to a world founded on logic and reason, riddles and lies, she thinks she's found her paradise. Alas, everything costs at the goblin market, and when her time there is drawing to a close, she makes the kind of bargain that never plays out well. Review: This is technically the eighth book I've read from Seanan McGuire (four of which are under her pen name, Mira Grant) and honestly, I find it difficult to say which is my favourite series, this or the Newsflesh series. I think it's fascinating as to how Seanan McGuire is able to craft a story, especiall...
