The Book Blogger Hop is hosted by Jennifer at Crazy-for-Books! This Week's Question:
If you see a book that looks good, but it is part of a series, do you start with book one or just read the one you want to read?
I always, always, always start with book one. I can't read just part of a series. Series are all about getting indebted in the characters and becoming immersed in the world and I can't do that just reading the last book or book 2. My brain just doesn't work that way, plus I'm kind of nosy when it comes to my characters. I want to know as much as I can.

This Week's Question:
What is your monthly book budget?
What is your monthly book budget?
My Answer:
I don't have a monthly book budget really, maybe if I did I would be more organized with my buying but really I just pick up things randomly. I do try to only go once a month in order to pick up things I only really, really want, but that normally doesn't happen... and when I go to signings (which seems to be fairly often recently) that idea goes out the window.

I'm with you, always start with book one. Drives me crazy that others don't. ;)
Hope you come by and see my answer!
Just stopping by for Hop. Agree with you on the question, I have to start at the beginning of the series, or I'll just get confused. New follower. =]

Hi twin! I haven't stopped by for a while, sadly. ;_; So I'm here now, giving you a few weeks' worth of loving in one post! <3
I can't start a book mid-series, either. Can't. There might have been something I missed or some important concept in the first book. I don't like not knowing what the heck is going on.
My book budget is $0! I'm a poor college student, so I only borrow books from the library or read in Barnes and Noble while hogging their air conditioning. :)
Kristina @ Frazzled Book Nommer. Have a good weekend twinzor! <3
Hi! I'm stopping by from the hop :) I try to read books in the order intended, but I have had a few instances that I found I was reading a sequel. Have a blessed weekend!
Hi Just hopping around to say hi this is my first blog hop. I do books sometimes but right now I'm giving away a really nice pair of Bushnell binoculars. Really. Come on over and hi high and check out my site. Refer your hubby boyfriend or just your friend that hunt. I always start with the first one in a series.
Thanks This is fun

Just dropping by to say hello. I know about the signing my first one I went and I spent like 50 dollars. -sighs-
have a good weekend!
Oh, how I wish I had a book budget! Lately it has been nonexistent! Thankfully, I do get quite a few freebies each month, so that helps!
