February Wrap Up 2014

Sorry for not posting for a month! It's been such a hectic month. I moved and my boyfriend was in the hospital for 2 weeks.

I'm way behind on my 100 book challenge for the year. Not good! The good news is, I finished some books.

I first finished The Guard by Kiera Cass.  This is a novella that goes with The Selection trilogy.  I was much looking forward to this and now looking forward to the last and final book in this trilogy. The One. (Release date: May 6, 2014)

The next book I finished was Shatter Me by Tehereh Mafi.

I was looking forward to reading a New Adult genre book and so I finished The Edge Of Never by J.A. Redmerski.

That is all I read!  I only read 8 of 100 books. That puts me exactly 1 month behind on my reading challenge.

Friday Reads: February 7, 2014

Happy Friday!

This weekend I plan on finishing two books I started before I moved into my new apartment last weekend. Those are Shatter Me by Tehereh Mafi and The Edge Of Never by J.A. Redmerski.

Before I tackle those books I plan on reading The Guard by Kiera Cass. A novella to go with The Selection trilogy.

What do you plan on reading this weekend?

Happy reading.

February TBR

Goodbye January and hello February!
Can you believe the first month of the year 2014 is already passed?

Last month I didn't even follow my TBR and don't think I'll be able to stick to one.

The only for sure ones would be the Shatter Me series by Tehereh Mafi.  I'm starting the month with already half of Shatter Me already read.  I want to finish up this series as the last book is released on February 4. (My birthday!)

Here is a list of books/ series I could possibly read this month.

- Shatter Me trilogy by Tehereh Mafi
Legend trilogy by Marie Lu
- Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan
- The Edge Of Never by J.A Redmerski
- The Edge Of Always by J.A Redmerski
- The Light Betwen Oceans by ML Stedman
- Not A Drop To Drink by Mandy McGinnis
- Uninvited by Sophie Jordan

I think this list is more realistic as to what I'll actually read.  Stay tunes for my Friday  Reads for a weekly update.

Happy reading!

January Wrap Up

Today I wanted to go over what I read during the month of January. Sum up what my goals were and what of accomplished.


In January, my TBR ( to be read list) included Never Fade by Alexandra Bracken ( book #2 of The Darkest Minds).  Snow White and Alice In Wonderland. These were the illustrated books by Camille Rose Garcia.  Lastly, the Delirium trilogy and novellas. These included, Delirium, Pandemonium, Requiem, Annabel, Hana, Raven and Alex.

I suppose I shouldn't have made a TBR because I didn't stick to it.

On January 6 to 12, I participated in the Bout Of Books 9.0 read-a-thon organized by Amanda @ On a Book Bender and Kelly @ Reading the Paranormal.

For a read-a-thon, I like to read as many books as possible. I wanted short books or books I really wanted to read at the time.  So once I read Never Fade, I threw my TBR out the window.

Here are the books I ended up reading.

1. Never Fade by Alexandra Bracken
2.  Shut Out by Kody Keplinger
3. Zombie Blondes by Brian James
4. Alice In Wonderland by Rod Espinosa (graphic novel)

I also started to read Shatter Me by Tehereh Mafi. I'm halfway done and carying it over into February.

What did you read in January? Did you meet your goals?  Did you have any goals?

Happy Reading!
