I looked for this challenge last year and couldn't find it so I am pleased to find it this year.

My goal for this challenge will be  b. Series Lover: Read 10 books that are first in a series.
Update: As I am obviously reading a lot of 1st in a series I have decided to go up a level to C. Series Expert: Read 20 books that are first in a series.
Update 30th of April: I am  going up another level to d. Series Fanatic: Read 30 books that are first in a series.
Update 30th of June: After 6 months I have read 33 books that were 1st in a series. I finished this challenge on the 8th of June.
