Saying Goodbye to the Series Enders Reading Challenge

Holly and I started the Series Enders Reading Challenge in 2014. It makes sense that after 11 years of hosting this challenge we would finally be ready to let it go. As hard as it can be to let go of seasons that we've enjoyed, we can't hold on longer than we should. Holly hasn't been actively reading at the same level as she used to due to her current life circumstances. And even though I'd be okay with managing the challenge on my own, we've had minimal participation in the challenge for the last several years. We appreciate those participants who have supported our blogs through the years, namely we want to give a shoutout to Jessica @ a GREAT read who faithfully knocked out her series enders faster than Holly or I did. Hardly a month went by since the challenge inception that Jessica didn't link up to one or more reviews for series enders.

Since starting the series enders reading challenge in 2014, Sandy finished 95 series. We had 514 reviews linked up over all of these years. We gave away over $900 over these last 11 years to monthly and grand prize winners.

Even though the Series Enders Reading Challenge has come to an end, we are thankful for the bloggers and readers we met through the challenge. We are thankful for the push to finish the series we've been holding out on. And we're happy to have been able to give back to our supporters over the years. We still plan to keep checking series enders off our list, and we hope you do too!
