Sandy:
  Alla has already answered but I will throw in a backup  to her. Yes, by all 
means, give this series a try. I love it too. Like  Danielle I got the first 
nine volumes in four books and have the 10th as a  stand alone. I have already 
pre-ordered volume 11 from my book club which  is where I got all the others.
 
Speaking of book clubs, I would like to recommend the one I  belong to. It 
used to be Zooba but they have renamed it BOMC2. It's an  online club only. You 
go to the site and sign up and then make your  reading list. Every month they 
send you the top book on your reading list.  The cost is $9.95 per book and 
there is no shipping charges. I have  belonged to this club for over a year and 
a half and I love it. You can  buy any book at any time rather than wait for 
it to come up on your list.  I never have less than 40 books on my reading list 
and have 52 on it right  now and am always buying books in between mailings.
 
Ah, Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys - love them and have all of  the original 
volumes. They still publish new ones but you and I would not  be interested in 
them. Trixie Belden is another favorite.
 
I just bought the first book in the Twilight series. I have  all four of them 
on my reading list at BOMC2, but they just released the  first one in 
paperback and have it where I work, so I bought it. I will  still get it from BOMC2 
because just like you, Ali, my series books have  to match on the bookshelf. No 
mix of hardbound and  paperbacks.
 
Speaking of that (books matching), when is Deathly Hallows  going to be 
released in paperback? I was late to the Harry Potter series  and bought the first 
five in paperback. I bought Half-Blood Prince in  hardbound when it was 
released, but replaced it with the paperback when it  came out in that format. I'm 
waiting to do the same with Deathly Hallows  so all of my books match.

P.S.  Alla, I have read your reviews for the Dresden  Files at Amazon. I 
always want to do that but can never figure out what to  write. I wasn't very good 
at book reports when I was in  school.
