1st in Series Challenge 2009

J. Kaye is hosting the 1st in a Series Challenge for 2009 on her blog. The rules for this challenge are pretty simple:

* Anyone can join

* Read 12 books that are the first in a series between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2009.

You can sign up for the challenge here.

I think this challenge will overlap very nicely with the 2009 Support Your Library Challenge since I'm anticipating a lot of my 'first in a series' books will be checked out from the library. I would love some suggestions for new series!

Here is my list:

1. Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead (Vampire Academy Series Book 1)
2. The Summoning by Kelley Armstrong (Darkest Powers Trilogy Book 1)
3. Sword Quest by Sabrina Vasta (Sword Quest Series Book 1)
4. Once Bitten by Kalayna Price (The Haven Series Book 1)
5. The Side-Yard Superhero by Rick D. Niece (Life in DeGraff Trilogy Book 1)
6. Ill Wind by Rachel Caine (Weather Warden Book 1)
7. The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie by Alan Bradley (The Buckshaw Chronicles Book 1)
8. Storm Front by Jim Butcher (The Dresden Files Book 1)
9. The Mask of Ra by P. C. Doherty (Egyptian Mysteries Book 1)
10. Armageddon's Children by Terry Brooks (The Genesis of Shannara Book 1)
11. City of Bones by Cassandra Clare (The Mortal Instruments Book 1)
