First in a Series Reading Challenge

December15

first in a series challenge 2012Even though I’m going to try this year to complete some series that I’ve already started, I’m always starting new ones (there are just so many out there – especially in the mystery genre). So it doesn’t seem to make sense to ignore the First in a Series Reading Challenge, hosted by Katy at Pages Worth Remembering.

I’m entering at the most basic level and committing to read just 3 books that are first in any series.

1. The Return of Captain John Emmett by Elizabeth Speller Completed Mar 2012
Set in post-WWI England and featuring Laurence Bartram, this is the only series I started this year that I will continue.

2. The Calling by Inger Ash Wolfe Completed Mar 2012
I was hopeful for this series starring Hazel Micallef, chief of Port Dundas, Ontario police. It was solidly plotted but, ultimately, a little dark for me.

3. Yellowthread Street by William Marshall 1975 Completed Sep 2012

4. The Crime at Black Dudley by Margery Allingham 1929 Completed Jun 2012
The first in the famed Albert Campion series.

5. Death at the President’s Lodging by Michael Innes 1936 Completed Nov 2012
Inspector Appleby’s debut

    I love to try new series, but need to pay more attention to the ones I’ve already started anbd loved next year. Good luck!

    Me too, Stacy! But I just know I’ll not be able to resist a few new ones as the year goes on. 🙂
