Reading Challenge: 2014 1st in a Series Challenge

I actually participated in this challenge several years ago when someone else was hosting it and before I had a book blog.  It's funny I'd signing up for this one since I always swear I won't start any new series, and yet here I am.

Anyway, I'm officially signing up for the 1st in a Series Challenge.

As the title implies, you are to read first books in series.  There are different levels based on how many you plan to read.  I'm going easy on myself and go for Series Novice which is 5 first books in series.  I've got more than that on my to be read pile, but since they are the easiest to push down the stack, they might not get read.

I'll update this page with titles as I get them read:
