📣 A Series of Standalones 📣
A hodge podge collection from different genres of series that are interconnected standalones. In this list, you'll only find the first book that introduce each series. Books in interconnected standalones usually have contained stories but share lore throughout the series or might have an overarching plot that is shared by the characters in each book. Do recommend any you can think of as I want to max out the 100 book capacity allowed here.
