FIVE SERIES TO FINISH IN 2021

Hi, Hollis here! A few years ago I bemoaned all my started-but-unfinished series and went to some painstaking effort to shelve them on GR to keep track. I quickly discontinued that effort but the fact remains that we as readers, and us here at A Take from Two Cities, start so many series and only manage to finish some. Whether that’s because said series are yet to be completed, delayed, or just forgotten about amidst all the other new releases, who can say. But to keep us accountable, I want to start a blog series not unlike our Five On Our TBRs but where we try to complete (at least!) five series a year.

Topping my list for series I’d like to complete in 2021 are :

Libba Bray’s The Diviners series. This will necessitate a reread of book one but considering how long ago I read that? It’s needed.

Sabaa Tahir’s The Ember in the Ashes series. This will also require a book one reread but now that the final book is out (!), there’s no time like.. well, 2021.

Mary E. Pearson’s The Remnant Chronicles has been on both my finish series list, my reread list, and my physical TBR list. If I can smash these out? Hoo boy, success. For this one, at least, I had read books one AND two. But I’ll reread both before embarking on the finale.

Emma Chase’s Royally series. This was one I was all excitement about after finishing book one and then I never picked up anything else. Whoops. This should be a fun easy contemporary series to smash through though to break up all these fantasy reads.

And lastly, for this round up, Alwyn Hamilton’s Rebel of the Sands series. I really enjoyed book one, back in 2016, and then never continued. Shame gif.


Are there any series you’re prioritizing this year? We’d love to know!

    1. I had literally just finished The Remnant Chronicles last night! (this post was drafted a while back, haha). I didn’t quite love them but it was a good time. and I’m happy putting this together gave me the push to finally get them done. I read the wee novella today, too, so feeling very complete! is Foundation the one by Asimov? I’m not sure I’ve ever read him! – H
