Book Series I Have Left Unfinished and probably won’t finish…*smiles*

Greetings readers!

I’ve been staring at my shelves as of late and have noticed that I have left many series unfinished. In some cases I own the whole series and I haven’t gotten around to continue and others I simply never even thought of truly completing.

Of course I always say: “Oh I’ll get to them one day.” But lets be honest…I won’t.

So why not call myself out in another post?

Sounds like fun to me!

The Series I have Pushed too Far But Will Eventually Happen

Kingdom of Gods by N.K. Jemisin

I loved the first two books in this adult fantasy series when I read it a couple of years ago. I think I would need to reread the first two to refresh, but yeah, this one is gonna happen.

The Star-Touched Queen series by Roshani Chokshi

I LOVED TSTQ I just suck at keeping up with release dates and such. I own A Crown of Wishes and Star-Touched Stories so I definitely want to get to these this summer!

Happy New Years Eve! It's the last day of 2017 people, that's crazy! On this night, my family gets together to count down to midnight and ring in the new year together! We also gobble down twelve grapes for each ring of the bell. With each grape you make one wish or resolution that you hope to fulfill in the new year. (Last year the grapes had seeds so it was a struggle 🙃) 2017 was a great year for me and the growth of my blog and bookstagram. I got to read so many great books including The Star-Touched Queen by @roshanichokshi ! I recently bought A Crown of Wishes to complete the the series on my shelf! I featured the duology in my post today! (Plus it was fitting with the whole grape - wish thing... At least the wish part!) What plans do you have to ring in the New Year? What is your most anticipated 2018 read? #thestartouchedqueen #acrownofwishes #roshanichokshi #ya #yafantasy #youngadultbooks #bookstagram #books #yabooks #newyearseve

The Maybe Might Happen Again

The Reader series by Traci Chee

It could still happen. I really liked the pirate character and would love to hear more of his story! But then again, I do not remember much about book one so I would either need a recap or a reread.

Illuminae by Jay Kristoff and Amie Kaufman

I thought the first one was okay. #unpopularopinion, I know. But I would consider reading the sequels…maybe. I don’t know. I mean I thought the format was cool but the overall story was pretty…meh. Who knows, we shall see.

Nameless by Jennifer Jenkins

I really liked the first one and my library officially bought the whole trilogy so maybe it will happen this summer! *emphasis on the maybe*

The Absolute Never Gonna Continue

The Red Queen series by Victoria Aveyard

I didn’t like Glass Sword and Red Queen was meh at best. It wasn’t that great TBH XD And I really have no inclination of moving forward.

Kingdom on Fire series by Jessica Cluess

I only read the first one…but it has been so long and I don’t remember much other than that it was like a love quadrangle(??) It was confusing too…mmm…nope.

Day 2 of #decbookstagram Warm drink with a book! I'm still feeling under the weather today so I'm going to curl up with this hot chocolate and fantastical read by #jessicacluess How are you all doing? #decbookstagram #bookstagram #readingwithrendz #pagewithaview #readwithmikee #reading #ashadowbrightandburning

Circle of Shadows duology by Evelyn Skye

I really disliked the first one and don’t think reading the second one will do me any good.

Soon to be read is CIRCLE OF Shadows by @evelyn_skye I've been anticipating this book since the moment it was announced and I am so happy to finally have my hands on a copy! Many thanks to @hccfrenzy for sending me an ARC, my Holiday reading sure did get more fun! I really enjoyed Skye's The Crown's Game duology, so I have a good feeling about this series too! What are you reading this holiday season? #circleofshadows #evelynskye #epicreads #yabooks #books #reader #bookishcanadians #fantasy

Defy series by Sarah B. Larson

I’m on the wrong side of the love triangle. And I really don’t like the MC.

Day 11 of #newyearnewbookstagram is Least Favourite Book I don't think I have a least favourite book. There are definitely books I lose interest in, but nothing I absolutely abhor and wish banned from this earth! The Defy series by Sara B. Larson is a series I lost interest in after book 1. This was a retelling of Mulan (sort of), with a girl who has to pretend to be a boy to escape a life of rape (basically). The premise of the book was cool, but the main character, Alexa got annoying fast to me. Her love interest, the Prince was bland to me and yes I fell hard for the best friend who was just brushed aside. *sigh* I decided to give book 2, Ignite a chance but ultimately it fell flat to me too. There were some good action scenes but other times it was just so boring and predictable. The third book came out and I didn't read it, I don't know if I will. I don't HATE the series, I dislike certain aspects and I've lost overall interest in discovering the resolution. What about you? Do you hate books or simply dislike aspects of it like plots/characters/romance etc.? Don't forget to follow the lovely tagged accounts!!! #bookblogger #bookaholic #bookaddict #bookstagram #readingwithrendz #defy #ignite #leastfavouritebook

Ash Princess by Laura Sebastian

I liked the first one. It was fine. It wasn’t amazing, but I’m not really interested in continuing. So I think I’ll save myself the time.

📑 Ash Princess by Laura Sebastian I read this about a week ago and rather enjoyed it! It reminded a lot of The Winner's Trilogy and Red Queen. If you enjoyed those I would definitely recommend you pick this one up! What fantasy books are you looking forward to this year? #ashprincess #laurasebastian #bookstagram #yabooks #ya #youngadultbooks #fantasy #reader #books

Poison’s Kiss by Breeana Shields

I don’t think this book needed a sequel at all and I really have zero interest in continuing.

Let me know what you think! What series have you completely DNF’d? What made you put it down? Do you think I should give these books a second shot? 

Happy reading!
