Every week Jennifer at Crazy-for-Books (http://www.crazy-for-books.com/) hosts a blog hop. Put your link in, post a comment and you can discover a lot of great blogs. The Hop lasts Friday-Monday every week. This week's question/task: If you find a book that looks interesting but is part of a series, do you always start with the first title? Absolutely. I do the same thing with movies. I saw The Bourne Supremacy before I saw The Bourne Identity. The Bourne Supremacy was awesome, but I felt like I missed something. They were talking about things I didn't understand. I had to see the first movie to get it. I bought Shiver and Linger after hearing about them on other blogs. I haven't read them yet, but I will buy the third book. Whether I like the books or not, I want to know what happened. I'm tempted by Harry Potter, but there are seven books.Here are a few blogs I came across:

Hopping by! I definitely try to start at the beginning anytime I can ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat??? You haven't read Harry Potter? You HAVE to read them. There are lots of books in the series, but they are SO good. Really. Totally worth all that reading :)
ReplyDeleteGlad to have found you via the Hop!
I guess I'm in the minority on Harry Potter. When they first came out, I thought those were for kids. But then my attitude about books changed when I started blogging. YA isn't just for young adults. One day I'm going to get to Harry Potter!!

I did read a book by Rick Mofina that was out of sequence, but I didn't even realize it. It could have stood alone. I've been out all day. Now I can stop by other blogs tonight!
