OverDrive users’ favorite book series unveiled!

Last week we asked a simple question on our Facebook page: What is your favorite book series?

 

Using the Facebook questions tool we provided 10 initial answers but also allowed for anyone to write in their personal favorites if they weren't already on the list. Throughout the week hundreds of people chimed in with their votes, excitement and comments about what should be number one. What we ended up with was a list of the 25 book series that readers around the world told us were their favorites!

 

Highlights from the list include the (unsurprising) fact that the saga of The Boy Who Lived received nearly 1/3 of all votes to take the top spot.  What was interesting was that the 'Outlander' series received the same percentage of votes as George RR Martin's 'A Song of Fire and Ice' despite being a write in option! Additionally, despite toping the 'Most Downloaded' charts month after month, the 'Fifty Shades' series received less than 1% of the votes.

 

Thank you to everyone who participated and, if you don't already, follow us on Facebook to be a part of the next poll. Feel free to share the infographic and these results wherever you like and be sure to leave your thoughts in the comment section below!
