I don't always read them back to back, but I want to be able to if I'm really into it. With such long breaks in between books I end up needing to re-read to remember what was going on.Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05058757489545239601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7453643548383938123.post-56892172345210447292013-01-21T13:10:48.399-05:002013-01-21T13:10:48.399-05:00Haha I tried a book buying ban last year, and it l...Haha I tried a book buying ban last year, and it lasted like a week!

I commented on a few of these in your previous post, but I have more to say about a few of the items on this list.<br /><br />I think it's a great idea to want to finish a series! I have a few hanging up in the air unfinished as of the moment, and hopefully, I get around to finishing them this year as well.<br /><br />Also, I love read-alongs!
