2. Susannah's Song by Stephen King

Doing my yearly read of the Dark Tower. Finished that one yesterday, on to #7 today.
They are my two least favorite books in the series.

3. Harry Dresden Wizard book, Cold Front.

Love this series!!! Have 3 more books to read and they are all lined up in my Kindle, yay!

5. I didn't realize the series was based on books!

I need to get up to speed.

6. There are 17 of them, I've been reading them for well over a decade.

I get irritated at times, but overall it's such a fun read if you like fantasy and a little dark with your light.

7. 17!

That would keep me busy.

8. I read fast and have read these in clumps over the years.

I catch up, then forget about it for awhile, and when I think back or see something years later - there's another 2-3 books. Yay! This keeps happening and I love it. Just discovered last week that the series didn't end when he "died" in book 13. Wow. Happy me!

9. I'm having trouble keeping up with a favorite author, too.

Been skipping around series a lot trying to not overspend my book budget or hogging the library’s copies.

4. "The Demon-Haunted World" by Carl Sagan.

He holds up.
