Welcome to Her Book Self's first monthly theme: Series in September! My goal is to use the month of September to focus on reading books that are part of a series. This might mean picking up on where I've left off in a string of mysteries or starting a new fantasy trilogy. For those readers that are fans of standalone novels, don't tune out this month since I've found that there are several books that, despite being written as part of a series, work perfectly well as succinct stories and I'll be sure to make note of such in my reviews. Also, September happens to be a month full of other festivities that will be featured here including Book Blogger Appreciation Week, Talk Like A Pirate Day, and... well, maybe it's a certain someone's birthday this month too! If any other book bloggers want to join me and create something of a meme for "Series in September" - whether it's for one post, a weekly theme, or a full month - I put together the image above that you can feel free to use on your own blog posts, and be sure to drop a comment here with a link to your post(s) as well!
Welcome, September: my favorite month of the year!

This sounds like so much fun! I'll try to find time for a series to participate!

Oh yay! I'm glad you like it! I was partly inspired by your "Monsters in May" and "Jane in June". I am notorious for starting a series, reading a few books, and then moving to something completely different, so hopefully this will help me make some progress. I've got the Dresden Files, Southern Vampire Mysteries, No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency, Fablehaven, Nina Quinn mysteries, Hunger Games, and many many others on my TBR list so it should be an interesting month!

I sure hope a "certain someone" has a great birthday!
