Three - The Perfect Number

Submitted by Sandra Silvey on Tue, 02/19/2013 - 5:38pm

I really like to read trilogies. When I find a story I can fall into I want it to last longer than just one book, but my attention span pretty much stops after three.  For me three books is just the right amount of time to spend with the story, and then I am ready for something new to captivate me.  I prefer to find the stories when they are already complete.  If I have to wait for the next one to be published it drives me crazy.  Here are some of my favorite trilogies that are complete and ready for your reading pleasure:

I like a trilogy, because I get bored when series go on too long, but I'm already tired of the new trend for trilogies about the same couple.  Stop, please.
