seriespaloozaOne of my very favorite things about reading is reading books in a series.  I adore getting to know characters and watching as they progress from point A to point Z over time.  But, if you are anything like me, as much as you’d like to read all the books in a particular series you also run into other obligations or constraints.

Well, I’m here to tell you that now there’s going to be a time to dedicate yourself, and your reading habits, *only* to the books in a series (or multiple series).

For the week starting December 14  through December 20 I’ll be holding Seriespalooza, where participants will read only books in a series they are either currently reading or are wanting to start.  It’s a relaxed affair where you can read at your leisure so there isn’t any pressure. It’s just a great excuse to dip into the pile of books you want to read instead of those you may have scheduled to read as a result of other obligations.

As part of the fun, over the course of the week I’ll be posting exclusively about series books and authors.   Not only that but you can follow all the fun using the Twitter hashtag #seriespalooza. Oh and because no party is complete without presents I’ll also be dipping into my bag of tricks to award prizes for people who are participating!

At the moment I plan on reading from the following series:

  • Marsden’s Tomorrow, When the War Began
  • Ness’ Knife of Never Letting Go
  • Westerfeld’s Uglies

I imagine there might be others that pop into my mind between now and when Seriespalooza starts so I’m not going to restrict myself only to the above.  It’s going to be a go with the flow kinda event for me.  I’d love to hear what you are going to read too if you want to post about it.

Interested in joining me?  Link up below so I can cheer you on and party with you during the festivities!
