This weekly frenzy of listing is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish.
I thought I would have trouble coming up with ten series that I haven't finished yet. Not so much. Turns out I have a "few" more than ten that could have filled up this list. Better get reading!

I read one of the Cottage Tales a few years ago, the whimsical nature of it appealed to me, but I haven't read any others. I liked it though...

Whimsical is the perfect word to describe those books!

The great thing about Wodehouse books is there are so many!

I've only read the first. I'm hoping the others live up to the promise of the first one!

I have all of the Sisterchick books and have two left to read. Robin Jones Gunn is one of my favorites!

Robin Jones Gunn's Sierra Jensen series was one of my favorite as a teenager. I was so glad to discover her series for adults!

Yeah, I could have done a Top One Million list on this topic! I haven't heard of most of the series on your list, but I do love the Big Stone Gap books. That's one of my favorite adult series. I hope you get around to finishing it.

Happy TTT!

I bought the last two books in the Big Stone Gap series, which I think is my problem. I need to check them out from the library so I have a deadline to read them. Otherwise, they just sit on my shelf for years! :)

you are one of the few people I've seen who reads the Sisterchicks series. I love this series and wish she would write some more. Totally forgot about the Big Stone Gap series. I realy enjoyed the first book. Need to put that on my list. Good luck finishing all the series.

I love the Sisterchick series! I actually annotated a few and sent them to my three best friends. They're fun reads - and powerful! :)

    My name is Julie, and I own a lot of books. As in, they are stacked on the floor because I've run out of room on the shelves. And those shelves? There are so many books on them that they smile -- not sag; smile. This blog will cover book reviews and all manner of other bookish things.

    You can contact me at julie@smilingshelves.com.
