Sometimes it gets to the point that the series continues but I feel like it's time to put it to bed and start a new one. I like a book that holds my attention from beginning to end and leaves me wanting more.<br /><br />Lynn<br />lareynolds0316@gmail.comLynn's Romance Enthusiasmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10774596781720510442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6804134394852065702.post-48068296831155497942013-06-27T15:40:12.291-07:002013-06-27T15:40:12.291-07:00I like both, but I have to say some authors are ge...I like both, but I have to say some authors are getting a little carried away with to many books in a series and then adding a 1.5 novella here and a 2.5 novella there and charging to much for a 50 to 75 page novella. :(Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09949985117100588159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6804134394852065702.post-3005259968498322342013-06-27T15:37:13.579-07:002013-06-27T15:37:13.579-07:00The whole book was amazing but, this scene was spe...The whole book was amazing but, this scene was spectacular.

What brings me back book to book in a series is just finding out what goes on and what the whole story of the book. I hope I worded that right:P I just enjoy reading a story that's a lot longer than just one book. <br />Thank you so much for this awesome giveaway!!!

I love a good series b/c hey! more time w/ fav characters... but sometimes if the stories get repetitive and the characters never grow/change, I get series fatigue. So a stand alone is great at that time, as a sorta palette cleanser. It's TV watching vs. movies :) but with books!erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10905574606129534214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6804134394852065702.post-31081063791478345892013-06-21T07:58:03.014-07:002013-06-21T07:58:03.014-07:00I like both.
