Reading Resolutions 2019

 This will be the second year in a row that I came up with something I call reading resolutions. Instead of making regular new years resolutions I come up with reading goals for myself. This upcoming year I decided that I want to work on series. I've had A LOT of these series on my TBR for years & I'd like to read them or at least start them & decide if I want to continue with them. But there is way too many of them. These on this list are those that I've either started & need to finish or series that are finally done being published/will be published this year. Because the list is super long I'm asking you...my readers...to help me decide. So from now until January 1st I want you to vote on what series you want me to read. Please comment below which one(s) you think should definetly make the list. Once I've read all the comments I'll create my final list & post it. Without further ado here are the eligible series. 

This first group are books that are for sure on the list already & I'll explian why in more detail.

Harry Potter by J. K Rowling
This series is one that I have obviously read before but I haven't read the whole thing since #7 came out...I'm guessing at least 10 years ago if not longer, right? I have all the books on audio & ebook so I'm definetly doing a re-read this year.
  Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard
I originally read Red Queen when it first came out a few years ago & I have been patiently waiting for the final book to come out. Now I can continue with this awesome series. 

 Puddin by Julie Murphy
I read Dumplin a few years ago & now the movie is out & it was fabulous! I'm excited to read this sequel.

 Hannah Swensen series by Joanne Fluke
We read the first book in this series in our book club a few months ago & I found the books on audio & ebook through the library so I decided to continue reading/listening to them. This is an on going series & I have no expectation of finishing it this year.

Me Before You by JoJo Moyes
We read the first book in my books to movies club that unfortunately is no longer but I enjoyed it so I want to read the others.

Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan 
I recently saw this movie & it was so good! The books have a hold list 50 people long so I bought them & I'm excited to read them.

 Between the Lines bu Jodi Picoult
I read the first book in thie duology last year & it was so fun!

The Great Library by Rachel Caine
 I read the first book in this series a few years ago when it came out. Since then every year for my birthday gift to myself I buy the next book. The final book comes out this upcoming year & I can't wait to finish this series.

Percy Jackson by Rick Riordan
I was reading these years ago when they were still coming out then I got tired of waiting & never finished them. I read 4 out of 5 at the time but I'm going to re-read them & finish the last.

The Glittering Court by Richelle Mead
I really enjoyed her Vampire Diaries series so when this first book came out I was excited. I also really enjoyed it. Now that they are all out I'm going to continue the series. 

Outlander by Diana Gabaldon
I started watching this TV series & I AM IN LOVE!!! So obviously I have to read the series. I'm trying to get them on audio & in book form. Since it's a popular series they are rarely available at my library. 

 The Maze Runner by James Dashner
I originally read the first book with a middle school book club I had going when I was a school librarian. From there I read the first 3. I have since acquired the last 2 books but haven't read them. I plan on rereading the first 3 then finishing the series.

The Girl at Midnight by Melissa Grey
I got the first book when I was subscribing to Uppercase & I liked it. As with many of the other series I plan on re-reading/finishing it.

Confessions of a Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella
I really like her other books & I finally have all of these so I can read them. 

Sookie Stackhouse by Charlaine Harris
I started reading these in college but they were not all published at the time. Much like a few of these other series I got tired of waiting for them to come out but now they are & I own all of them so I'm excited to finish the series. 

 Evermore by Sara Holland
I read the first book Everless a few months ago & it was really good! At the time I thought it was a standalone, I hate when that happens. But I'm excited for this one to come out.

Witherwood Reform School by Obert Skye
Obert Skye came to our library this summer & he was really cool, he gave a great presentation to the kids & everyone enjoyed it. I bought these 2 books when he came so I'm gonna read them.I think this series is over???
