Book Series

Let's talk real about these book series. I'm all for supporting my fellow authors and their outstanding books they put out but I get so wary of book series. Especially if the first book leaves you with the most heart-dropping, mind-numbing, mother of all cliffhangers and having to wait for the second book and even longer wait for the third and so on and so forth. So how long is too long to put out series? My thoughts are two months max at a time. It gets redundant when you begin stalking the author's page for clues on the next release date or a meme or a sign of life of the beloved sequels to said book. Sometimes it gets so frustrating when it's more than six months and there still isn't any word from the author that you put that author and series in the back burner or start blog riots for authors to get a move on and give us closure. I, myself, am a very impatient gal and I would wait till all of the series are out before even starting on that particular book or know that specific author wouldn't make you wait forever and a day for the next book to come out. I love it when authors know when their publishing multiple series they have a time table on when you should expect his/her books. It makes me confident to read the book, get that cliffhanger and having that 'expected date of the next series'. I absolutely love my authors and I know that their trying to make you anxious for their series....trust me. It works, just don't make us wait forever for our closure! How about you? How long would you wait for series?
