Hi all. It's time for this week's Top Ten Tuesday, which is a meme created by The Broke and the Bookish. My task for this week is to pick ten series I haven't finished for some reason. Even though I rarely quit on some series still I believe I can find ten I haven't finished.
1. The absolute winner here is The Premonition series. I've read the first two and those two have the worst reviews I've ever wrote. Inescapable I survived, but Intuition killed me.
2. The Vampire Agape. I've read first book in this series and it simply annoyed me too much.
3. Next one is series called Celestra. I've read the first one and I really didn't like it. Too bad cause covers are beautiful.
4. Darke Academy is next one. To be frank I read first three because I found them at the library and they were short. Another thing our publishers need some better advisers (like me for example *hint*), cause the book they translate are too bad. There is too many good books, why they waste time on some like this one, I have no idea.
5. Brenna Blixen series is another one I haven't finished. I have no idea why, but I believe I'm too old for this one.
6. I can't believe but I almost forgot The Vampire Diaries. Hands down for the TV show, but books, no thank you.
7. First book in Souls series wasn't that bad, but it lack to impress me enough to continue with this series.
8. Shadow Unit series is another one that bites the dust.
9. I'm still thinking about Graceling Realm. I've read the first book, but we'll see about the next ones. If I find some time, maybe.
10. Last one is Women of Underworld. I'm not into this whole adult thing, but I've read the first one just because I had the book. Now the book is on some better place and I will maybe read this series one day.
I'd love to see your picks for this week. Leave the link in comments and I'll visit your posts!
Until the next time,
Well, you chose series you won't finish, I actually chose series I want to finish, but still haven't :)
OdgovoriIzbrišiFrom these, I've read only Graceling, but still haven't read the other 2, especially Bitterblue, I've been waiting for it for so long, and now just sits on my shelf unread.
I also read Shattered Souls, and although far from perfect, I still enjoyed it, 'cause there was just something in the author's writing style that appealed to me, so I'm definitely looking forward to reading her next book Ashes on the Waves, which is based on Edgar Allan Poe's poem, so depending how that one goes, that will be the thing that will decide if I'll read the sequel when it will be published. :)
Thanks for visiting my TTT!
The premonition series I definitely agree with, besides the Brenna Blixen series (which I loved) I haven't read the others.
OdgovoriIzbrišiThank you for sharing & for stopping by my TTT :)
@Aleksanda well I picked those. Cause If I started with books I want to finish I'd end up putting all series that haven't been finished yet.
OdgovoriIzbrišiGraceling was so-so, but I'll read other books as I have them and Shattered Souls was also so-so but it lack to impress me. I'll check Ashes on the Waves, hey Poe is magical word.
You're welcome.
@Sharon I'm happy that I'm not the only one. About Brenna dunno, I don't feel like reading it.
I love the Vampire Diaries TV series too but I don't think I'll be picking up any of the books as well. :)
OdgovoriIzbrišiThey say Fire is better than Graceling so maybe we both should pick that up soon. I know I should give Insurgent and Clockwork Prince a chance because you can never truly tell (and judge) just by reading the first book in a series. :)
Don't even try it's not worth it. I know I heard the same thing, we really should. I love both series and I think you'll love them too! :)
OdgovoriIzbrišiyou should definitely continue the graceling realm series--the second book is my favorite! :)
OdgovoriIzbrišiThe only book(s) I read from your list was Graceling and the companion Fire! I really liked Fire, it was very different. I personally loved Graceling better but A LOT of people say Fire was their favorite. I hope you get to check the books out! :)

Nice list! I haven't heard of most of these, except for Vampire Diaries, which I haven't finished, either. I like the show more, which is unusual. Thanks for sharing!
OdgovoriIzbrišiRachel @ Beauty and the Bookshelf
Honestly, I don't think you're missing anything by not finishing the Brenna Blixen series. I thought the first one was so much fun, but I really, really disliked book two and the third was just okay!
OdgovoriIzbrišiWendy @ The Midnight Garden
Okay...then it's set. I'll continue Graceling series then. I hope I'll like Fire better. And Rachel you're right it's really unusual to like tv show more than book.
OdgovoriIzbrišiWendy to be honest I thought so. There are better books waiting for me ;)
Thank you for stopping by!! :)
I don't think I have heard of any of the series you mentioned. And seeing as your didn't land most of them I think I'll stay away. I DO not want to take on any more series. Great list.
OdgovoriIzbrišiThanks for Stopping by my Top Ten Tuesday
I know how you feel! Sometimes when I see that the book is standalone I want to jump and hug the author! :)
