Whenever the new year rolls around, I always feel like it’s time to tackle big projects—opportunity abounds!
Besides cleaning out the coat closet and waxing the floors, I’ve been looking for some great new book series that I can sink my teeth into this year. The new NOOK First in a Series collection is a great place to start. In addition to the time-tested offerings below, there are a bunch more multi-volume favorites to explore in the full collection.
If you’re only familiar with Matt Damon’s on-screen portrayal of Jason Bourne, you’ll absolutely want to get to know the literary character who inspired the hit film series, too. Robert Ludlum’s The Bourne Identity is a classic of the genre, and I can almost guarantee you won’t want to stop until you’ve plowed through the entire series.
Book series are usually synonymous with fiction, but don’t forget about the many excellent multi-volume non-fiction offerings available for NOOK as well. Pulitzer Prize-winner Robert A. Caro has devoted his life to writing the essential biography of Lyndon Johnson, and The Path to Power is the book that started it all.
It seems that book series are a constant on the teen bestseller charts—the covers and characters change over the years, but young adults always support good series fiction. The Shadow Falls saga is one of today’s best YA series—featuring a fascinating camp for paranormal (you know, vamps, werewolves, witches and the like) outcasts. Get into the action with Born at Night, the bestselling first book.
Tell Me: What series have you recently started?
I'm biased, of course, but I think my supernatural espionage Lawson series is pretty spectacular! 
All of it is available on the Nook! http://bit.ly/lawsonv and you can even read one of Lawson's short adventures for FREE http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/dead-drop-jon-f-me
