10/11/2022 How long do you give a new-to-you series to decide if you like it? 




....at worst a few pages. I will NOT suffer through book after book in case the series gets better. I do not get people who buy 5 books in a series. Nah, not me. I buy book 1, and if I do suffer through it all I will not buy book 2.



If you suck, you are gone. I do not care if you are new or not

  1. I can go either way. It depends on what was niggling at me in the first book. If I think it's just the intro stuff being a little boring and it will get exciting after that, I'll hang on, but if its the writing style or under-developed plot/romance/characters, I'll let it go.

  3. I have stopped a series after one book, but usually I don't hate a book so much that I won't try book 2. I did pre-buy all 5 of the Heartstriker books so they better not suck! LOL.

  6. It depends on the series, if it's like an epic fantasy that's only gonna be at most 3-4 books I quit if the first book doesn't impress me. Urban fantasy series I give it 2-3 books before I throw in the towel because those typically run longer and some of my favorite UF series have taken more than the first few books to really take off.
