Ten Finished Series I Have YET to Finish
UPDATED:
Y’all! Don’t panic. September is for Sequels! That’s right, a read-a-thon just for sequels! Lisa Loves Literature is hosting for the fourth year, so go sign up! You could knock a few of these books in today’s post off your list!
This is a difficult topic for me for two reasons: I try to stay away from series and as such half the time I don’t know if what I’m reading is a series until after I’ve started it…or if it’s a finished series.
There were 12 books published before Meyer’s death last August. I now own all the books but have only read the first eight.
The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
I still have not read the last book. I have it! I just haven’t gotten to it.
The Lockwood Legacy by Juliette Harper
I have read the first three books in the series. I haven’t read the final book or the novella.
The Arboretti Family by Michele Jaffe
I’ve read one of the books in the series. I have the others on ebook that I am planning on reading sometime soon…as in, before Christmas.
Book of the Order by Philippa Ballantine
I’ve read the first three books in the series. I only need to read the final book.
Gallagher Girls by Ally Carter
I just recently discovered this series. I listened to the first book on audio.
There are 20 books in the series, so I am assuming it is finished. I recently read the first book in the series.
Time Warp Trio by Jon Scieszka
These are books I read with my intervention students at school. We have only read two out of the series.
I have only read the first book in the series, but I own the final book.
The Stanislaskis by Nora Roberts
I’ve read a spattering of the books about the Stanislaskis, but not all of them.
I am familiar with nothing but the Hunger Games. (facepalm) Sorry. But they all sound interesting. 🙂

Hunger Games? Really? Well, get to reading!
Here’s my Top Ten Series I’ve YET to Finish!
Haven’t read any of these series myself! Hope you get to read them all soon!
Here’s my Tuesday Post
Have a GREAT day!

We don’t have any picks in common, but I definitely try to stay away from series these days myself. I read TOO MANY of them before I started blogging and, as you can see by my post, I’m terrible at finishing them. Standalone series are a different story. I read those all the time. But these long and drawn out epic fantasy type series? Not for me. (Though there are some I have my eye on for when they’re finished.)
My TTT!
I’m terrible with checking first, and also terrible at following up with subsequent books.
The last book of the Hunger Games isn’t the best out of the lot but it needs to be read. It shattered me. Hope you get to it soon 🙂
Hi! I didn’t even know The Giver was part of a series. I’ve only read that one. The last Hunger Games book was tougher to get through. Maybe the movie release will motivate you 🙂
My TTT
The Time Warp Trio is great! I didn’t know that The Giver was even part of a series until just last week lol My TTT
You HAVE to read Mockingjay so you can weigh in on the ending! This book divides a lot of people with a very thick line, and I would be interested to see which side you fall on! Plus the final movie is coming out soon.
Enjoy!
Thanks for stopping by the The Local Muse
Bloody Jack and The Gallagher Girls series are both on my list. I love Jacky so much that I’m trying to savor the series, especially since there will never be another Jacky book. *Sniff* I did read all The Giver books this year. It’s not my favorite series, although all the books made me think.
Happy TTT!
A piece of my reading heart died when I found out LA Meyer passed. I immediately bought the remainder of the books (last 4) I didn’t have, like they were going to magically POOF! and disappear off shelves. Then after a while I began to speculate if he wrapped everything up with the series because he knew, ya know? That upset me, and I am dying and dreading finishing the books.
Well first you have to go read Mockingjay. Then we’ll continue 😉 I need to read The Giver books 2-4 also. I want to, I just don’t happen to own any of them- or have the time, really! But seriously, go read Mockingjay!! 😀
[…] Top Ten Tuesday ~ Ten Finished Series I Have YET to Finish […]
I have to disagree with everyone here and say, “Leave Mockingjay and get to reading the rest of The Giver series!” 🙂 Hunger Games was meh for me while I absolutely loved The Giver Series. I’m intrigued by the Time Warp Trio. Checking it out now. Thanks for sharing this post at Booknificent Thursday!
