For all of us fans of series that we still need to finish or get up to date with! ...A series is considered complete in one of two ways: either as finishing all the books that you own in the series or as obtaining and reading all the books that have been published in the series to date ... FYI, reading novellas and short stories from a series does count here--if you want it to!... The challenge is divided into 3 different categories which I really like! But I'm gonna start low and work my way up.

Series started before 2014: series that you have started reading before Jan. 2014 and that you still have unread books to get current in (or finish) the series.

                ...Let’s be honest here, we all have those books we’ve received for review (whether requested or not!), but we just haven’t gotten to them yet. Or maybe we went a little crazy with the ‘request’ buttons on NetGalley or Edelweiss, and we need to catch up. That’s what this challenge is for ... to help clear up books you’ve received for review. Any format, or any length, as long as you received the book specifically for review, is allowed... This is the most perfect challenge EVER! I SO need this one!
