2015 Series "Challenge" - Update #3

In my last update, I had 2 series down, 15 books read. Not really making much of a dent in those three months. But this go-around, I think I've done pretty well considering I'm not reading as much as I'd like. I've finished 1 more series and 5 more books for a total of 3 series and 20 books. 

In these final three months of 2015 (what???), I hope to knock off some of these series that I only have one book left to read. My 8 year old recently fell in love with Rick Riordan books and so far this school year has read all of the Heroes of Olympus books, having just finished Blood of Olympus and teased me mercilessly that he beat me. For my benefit, I will be highlighting in blue the books I want to read before the year is done!

I'll be back in January for my final update, but until then...here is my Series list!
