3/26/2024 Will you start a series if you know it probably won't be finished?
If I know? Nope, that would be awful. Starting, loving it and then been left hanging for all eternity?!? I even have one of those. It is so sad

Yes, the pain of an unfinished series. I've knowingly read a few where I knew the book that was published was standalone so the unfinished series wouldn't affect me, but I'd not do it if I had no guarantees.

If I do not know, of course, but if I know..no
DeleteSo sad. Especially if it is a high-stakes series.
ReplyDeleteThe saddest
DeleteThat feeling applies when I can’t find the sequel too!
ReplyDeleteOh yes that sucks
DeleteNo, I wouldn't start it.
ReplyDeleteIt feels like a waste of time
DeleteI wouldn't start the series if I knew it would never be finished.
ReplyDeleteIt would feel so wrong
DeleteYeaaaa if I know it won't finish I will probably try and ignore
ReplyDeleteSad but true
DeleteSometimes you don't know it won't end until you are a few books in so that stinks.
ReplyDeleteOh yes that is the worst
DeleteI don't think so, or maybe I'll just be content with reading the first book just to see what the fuss about but that's it.
ReplyDeleteAnd if it was amazing?
DeleteFor me, it depends on the type of series it is. I read a lot of series where the series' books are self-contained and so I don't mind if they don't have an official ending so much. It does matter though if it's a series where the books can't stand alone on their own.
ReplyDeleteHere's my response: https://www.literaryfeline.com/2024/03/where-is-your-bookmark-peek-into-finlay.html
True. Some series have books that can stand on their own. But if not nah
