Wondering how everyone approaches a series or books that go on to get a sequel? For the longest time I would automatically reach for any sequels that followed books I loved but now…eh. Sometimes I just like how a story has wrapped up and am not looking for more of the characters even if I enjoyed them the first time around. Anyone else do something similar and/or what are your reading habits when it comes to sequels?

    I get really tired of reading series very quickly and have a bad habit of starting series and taking forever (or never) getting back to them. I stopped reading the stormlight archive because I couldn’t take any more of the writing style. I stopped a song of ice and fire at a feast for crows because George won’t ever finish the series at this rate. Most recently I finished McCarthy’s final duology The Passenger and Stella Maris.
