I have decided to go on a new book hiatus for a while. I will technically be playing one current book, The Royal Heir, but otherwise I will not be reading any new chapters that come out for a time and any chapters I have not read before from books I didn't finish for whatever reason unless it's a book I specifically know I like. I will continue to collect daily diamonds and to play chapters in books I like (and finish up any playthroughs of books I am replaying so I get them off my queue).

For me this means playing a lot of the following series:
 * The Crown & The Flame
 * The Elementalists
 * Across the Void
 * Nightbound
 * Hero
 * Most Wanted
 * The Royal Romance (because yes, I love that series)
 * Endless Summer

In addition I will be playing occasional chapters of:
 * Perfect Match
 * Rules of Engagement
 * Red Carpet Diaries (but I am temporarily halting progress on book 3 during my hiatus. I may start it back up sooner than others).
 * The Heist: Monaco
 * High School Story & High School Story: Class Act
 * Wishful Thinking (which I haven't actually finished, but intend to do so)
 * Bloodbound . . . maybe
 * Desire & Decorum . . . maybe (I will not be starting book 3 in a few days . . . but I might start it up at sometime in the next month or so)

I will finish up the following to get them off my queue:
 * Home for the Holidays - It's easy to play, because I don't care what happens.
 * A Courtesan of Rome - I haven't finished it, one chapter left. I will potentially replay it, but for now, I'm just going to finish it when I get around to it.
 * Veil of Secrets - I have a chapter left in a replay. Not a favorite, might play it again sometimes, but right now, I'm just getting it off my queue.
 * # LoveHacks - Given that things have made me reconsider this series, I have been replaying it. I will finish the replay and put it on hold for a while.
 * Ride-or-Die: A Bad Boy Romance - Garr! That name. Anyway, I started a replay to get the car I wanted. I will finish that replay and put it away. Unsure if I will replay it, again. I like parts of it and not others.
 * The Junior & The Senior - I wanted to get through various love interests and once I finish these two books with my last MC, I will put them away. Until then, I will continue to whittle away at them.

Things I'm not even going to mess with on my queue:
 * Passport to Romance - I have three or four chapters left and I'm just not messing with that right now. Wasn't to my taste. I'll finish it eventually, just not now during my hiatus.
 * Platinum - Although I like it better than some things currently, for the present I am leaving it where it's at.
 * Bloodbound II - Likewise, although I do like it better than somethings, I am leaving it for the present . . . I may change my mind since it is a fantasy series and I really want them to keep fantasy series in the app.
 * Red Carpet Diaries, Book 3 - I actually like it thus far, but I am behind and not going to hurry to finish it. I'll probably get back to reading it in a month or two.
 * Sunkissed - I don't hate it, but I'm going to stop for my hiatus.
 * Bachelorette Party - I've only read a single chapter, so I don't know much, but I'm putting it on hold for a while. Besides I do not need that cover front and center anywhere on my app. I'll probably wait until it is completed to play more.
 * Big Sky Country - Never been a fan, no hurry to do anything with it, but it is pick your gender, so I may have to consider keeping playing anyway.

Any series not mentioned, I do not currently have an open playthrough at all. I will restart both books in the It Lives series at some point soon. I will be avoiding America's Most Eligible, maybe playing it just because it's pick your gender, but not hurry on that and no replays. I will probably restart The Haunting of Braidwood Manor, again. Who knows what if anything I will do with Open Heart, but I might replay it just because it is gender of choice. I think that covers it. I will be avoiding any new series unless they are gender of choice or something on it's second book that I particularly like.
