Stacking the Shelves (244)

Stacking the Shelves

This week it looks like my cup runneth ridiculously over, doesn’t it? Tor sent me an eARC for the next book in L.E. Modesitt’s Recluce series, because I love his Imager Portfolio. The only problem is that I’ve never read the Recluce series. I just never got a round tuit. It’s time to rectify that, so I started picking up the previous books in the series. I may not get to them until next year, but now I have most of them, with more on the way. I feel so much better! (But there are so many covers that I’m not including them all in the graphic – it made a TERRIBLE mess!)

Does anyone else do that? Get an urge to read a long-established series and just have to track down every book before even thinking of starting? I know I’m a completist, but sometimes I worry a bit about just how many bookish obsessions I’ve take up. What about you?

    1. The first one in the Sophie Barnes series was just SO GOOD. I can’t wait to start this one.

      But yeah, I’ve gone and backfilled series when I jump into the middle. Recluce is a series I always meant to read, but never got round to. This time, hopefully.

  1. I have never ordered an entire series at once but I have been known to order a back series when jumping in halfway through. On other notes, how do you keep this many books straight- I think I would cry if I added that many books to my shelves in one week.

    1. As far as straightening goes, I mostly get ebooks. We ran out of space a LONG time and several moves ago for this many print books. And for the ebooks I have to review, I keep a calendar like a to-do list. Not that I do them all in time, but it’s a way of organizing the mass. Or is that mess?
