Read All The Books

Since this will be the last N.E.W.T.S for the magical readathon, I just had to do it. I'm a little late posting this TBR as it is already the 2nd of August and I have already finished one book but I decided it was better late than never. So for my O.W.L.S I completed Astronomer and Animagus Training so I have decided to complete all the prompts for both for the N.E.W.T.S. For Astronomer I need to  get an O in Arthimancy, O in Astronomy and an A in History of Magic. For Animagus Training I need to get an A in Arithmancy, E in Potions and O in Transfiguration. That is a total of 13 books! Not sure if I can complete all prompts but I will try and mainly focus on completing the Astronomer ones. Here are the prompts for Astronomer and what I have chosen to read: Read a non-fiction:  The Secret - Rhonda Byrne Read a book that ends on an uneven number: Romanov - Nadine Brandes Read a book that's between 260 and 299 pages: Liar Liar - LA Cotton Read a book with a star on the ...

I have decided to participate in the reading rush challenge this year. You can sign up and find all the information on the challenges, rules and hosts here .

I read a total of 14 books in January so here are the as listed in my reading journal with my ratings. Since February is a shorter month I decided not to have too many books in my TBR but somehow still ended up with 14! At least 2 of them are novellas!

BookRoast on Youtube is back again with another magical readathon, a Christmas edition this time so naturally I had to participate in this one.  You can find the link to her video explaining the readathon rules here . It runs from the 17th of December until the 26th December and there are a bunch of challenges that you can choose from but ultimately you only really need to read 4 books and finish a book that you have already started. I will list the challenges I have decided to follow as well as the books I have chosen for them. 1. Finish your coursework. (finish your current read) I am currently reading Queen of Air and Darkness by Cassandra Clare but I have only just started so hopefully I can get through it quickly as it is a really long book. Over 900 pages! 2. Have a snowball fight with the Weasley twins (a book that you think will be humourous) I decided on I believe in a thing called love by Maurene Goo as it is about a Korean American girl who uses K-Drama techn...

So I know that we are almost half way through the middle of the month but I figured it was better late than never so here is my March TBR: Jude The Obscure - Thomas Hardy The Night Circus - Erin Morgernstern Far From The Madding Crowd - Thomas Hardy Charlotte's Web - E. B. White The Lost City of the Monkey God - Douglas Preston The Five People You Meet in Heaven - Mitch Albom Bleak House - Charles Dickens Unearthed - Amie Kaufman & Megan Spooner A Court of Wings and Ruin - Sarah J. Maas My Lady Jane - Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton & Jodie Meadows Ace of Shades - Amanda Foody A Prayer for Owen Meany - John Irving Hopefully I can get to most of these book this month. Like I mentioned we are almost half-way through the month and I have only read 4 of these books. Let me know what you are planning on reading this month.

My October TBR is fairly ambitious  at 13 books but I am really excited to read a lot of books to bring my TBR list down. I was down to 92 books but then I added more so now it is over 100 so hopefully I get to most if not all 13 of these books this month. So the first 2 books on my TBR are ARCS from Netgalley: 1. The Count of Monte Christo Manga - Crystal S Chan 2. Roll The Dice - Wayne Avrashaw The next 2 books on my TBR are re-reads: 3. Geekerella - Ashley Poston 4. Picture of Dorian Grey - Oscar Wilde I then have 6 books sitting on my bookshelf that I would like to get to: 5 - 9. Percy Jackson and the Olympians series 10. A Court of Thorns and Roses - Sarah J Maas The next 2 books are books that have been on both my August and September TBR but I have yet to read because I know they will be amazing and I will get through them so quickly and then be depressed I have finished reading them so I have yet to pick them up: 11. Eliza and her Monste...

I have no real reason for picking these books to read this month other then the fact that I have decided to read books that have been sitting on my kindle for a long time.

So I had a really really good reading month in March so the only book that I didn't finish reading was so that is going on April's tbr: The other books I plan to read in April are:

Since I read a lot of books in February, I thought that for March I would keep my TBR list on the shorter side. The only new book coming out this month that I really want to read is: I also recently download the entire famous 5 series (a series I loved to read when I was younger) so I plan to read a least 2 of those this month: Other books on my TBR are: And of course the books I didn't finish in February: What's on your TBR pile?

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!
