February 2017 TBR!

Image
My TBR for February is extremely ambitious seeing as how the month only has 28 days but we will see how I go: So obviously I have not finished the Complete Works of Shakespeare in January. Not even half way though so that is going on the list: Then the 2 books that are coming out in February that I am looking forward to are also going on the list: I have been putting off reading the Shadowhunter Chronicles so I plan to read the Mortal Instruments and the Infernal Devices this month as well: And just incase that wasn't enough I thought I would add these 3 as well: So there you have it. A grand total of 15 books I plan to read in February. Probably won't get through half of them but I am optomistic!

Next to Never - Penelope Douglas (Fall Away #4.5)

Image
This novella is number 4.5 in the Fall Away series. The main character is the sister of Jarod, Madoc and Jax, 3 characters who you meet in the previous books. Next to Never introduces her to the series, however this novella is not her love story. This story is about the next generation while also giving the reader some insight into background history of previous characters. This novella sets up the rest of the series to come. There is a story within this story which I really enjoyed the concept of. It's not every day that you read a book that has a book in it. What I have read about the new generation so far has been promosing and I can't wait til she writes the next book in the series. Not sure how I felt about the love story included (like I mentioned it is not the main characters love story) but it does explain in previous books, 2 characters that I didn't quite understand how they ended up together. If you have not read the first 4 books in th...

'Worth It' by S.M. Shade & C.M. Owens Review

Image
This novel was hilarious! Funny from the beginnig all the way to the end! It's about 3 best friends who travel to Florida to go to the wedding of the ex-boyfriend of the 'good' girl of their group who cheated on her to be with his current fiance. They decide to get revenge on the couple by playing a few pranks on the bride and groom leading up to the wedding but of course nothing goes to plan. It focuses mainly on the two 'bad' girls and is told from a dual perspective. Every chapter will have you laughing your head off, from panty flashing, butt stinging jellyfish to dominatrix strippers who like to take things too far. My favourite scene was definitely the duck scene (yes this book has ducks, just in case it wasn't amazing enough already). I laughed so hard I couldn't breathe during that scene. I can honestly say I have never laughed so hard in another book in my life. I have read books by C.M. Owens before and I really enjoyed them but I...

2017 Reading Goals

My main reading goal for 2017 is to read 100 books. This should be doable as I have read more in previous years, however last year I only managed to read 93. I also have a few other goals within this. I plan to finish all the books on my bookshelf, which currently stands at 12 unread books. However, one of them is the complete works of Shakespeare which is one BIG book. I hope to at least complete this by June. The only other goal I have is to reread the entire Harry Potter series. I will keep you updated on my progress during the year. What are your reading goals for 2017?
