@Nay are you going to watch the movies when you’re done? The books are better, of course, but I loved that series so much I loved the movies.

@Jaxx i watched the first movie after reading the first book and what I’m thinking is I want to watch the movies after each book. But I just realized I finished the second book and started the third one already lol but yes I am going to watch the movies too. I loved the first one! ?

That’s a tough series to get through. And based on how long the books are, you really need a break between each of them.

I finished all 5 books within three months. I didn’t break.

Rick Barnes it took me months to get through each one of the books and I normally read pretty quickly. But I finished the series. I agree, I needed to take breaks and read a few lighthearted books in between.

@Sara fantasy and romance

Anything by pamela claire is good. Its more military suspense with romance thrown in but the I-team novels are great. They all intertwine in some way so if you get hooked youve got a list to go through.

John Jakes has a few serial books. Historical. Well worth reading. Has a serial of 6-7 books, starts with The Bastard.

Tad Williams Memory, Sorrow & Thorn or Melanie Rawn The Dragon Prince Trilogy & the follow up The Star Scroll Trilogy. All excellent fantasy with some romance thrown in. Happy New Year!!

Bess Crawford mysteries are great – setting is World War I and the protagonist is a highly competent combat nurse. Author is (mother & son team) Charles Todd. Enjoy!!

@JonLee – Which one should I start with?

0
JonLee

@Lori I’m going to start with the Pitt series, the first novel, The Cater Street Hangman, because I have that book in my bookshelf. The other series is the Monk series, and the first book is The Face of a Stranger. I always like to read series books in order. It might be fun to alternate between the two series. I think I will do that and get a feel as to which series I want to follow first, or maybe just alternate. I’ve read her Christmas novels and love them.

@JonLee – I like to read books in order as well. I just wasn’t sure which series to start with. Thanks.

@Ray I read The Likeness. I didn’t know it was a series until after I read it. I liked the book very much. Very literary, as well as a great mystery.

@Ray I’m working through Into the Woods. A little slow right now but I was assured that it picks up.

Also her Mercy Thompson series https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/71811.Moon_Called?from_search=true

Or Lisa Shearin’s Raine Benares series https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/621697.Magic_Lost_Trouble_Found?ac=1&from_search=true

Bert

Alpha Omega is more romantic. Mercy is more mystery with a slow long burning romance. And Raine Benares is more action with romance and a love triangle. Oh yeah, Kim Harrison’s witch series is really good and she has several male companions before settling down at the end. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/30264.Dead_Witch_Walking?ac=1&from_search=true
