Book Recaps, Rapid Reviews, and Series Lists!

Have you ever checked out a book only to realize it was a sequel to a another book in a series? Well, that just happened to me. As I was looking for a synopsis of the first book,  I just discovered a wonderful website: Book Series Recaps. Not only can you get recaps of books, you also can read reviews and get series lists.
