Not really seeing duplicated info here. I was thinking that I'd enter most
of my data in the BooksRead table - when I enter it would have a binary "is
this book in a series" - if I push yes then it would pop up a dialog for me
to enter the series info if it's not already in the series table and
possibly ask "do you want to enter all books in this series now?" so then
it would populate the series table after I enter the single book in
"BooksRead"

Best,
Joel
