I originally thought I hadn’t managed to read that much this month, but I would say that 4 books isn’t that bad. Reading Ms. Marvel created a first time experience for me as this was my first comic book. I loved it! Kamala is certainly going down as my new favorite super hero.

I was also able to reread Anne of Green Gables. This is my all time favorite book and I always love revisiting Anne and her world every few years. I hope to go through the entire series that L.M. Montgomery created later this year.

The Heartbreakers was a spontaneous pick in March. I was scrolling through Scribd (the Netflix of ebooks and audiobooks) one day looking for something to read and this caught my eye. My guilty pleasure reads are mindless teen romances. The Heartbreakers fit the bill and was the fastest read for March.

I listened to Five Feet Apart on audio and liked it. I mostly listened to it because it was released as a movie this past month and decided to give it a try. Five Feet Apart is only 5 hours long on audio and I was able to listen to it in an afternoon while I did a few other things.

Comment below what you read in March. What was your favorite and what was your least favorite?

Happy Reading,

Meghan

July Wrap Up 2018

July Wrap Up Banner

July was a sad month reading wise for me. I literally didn’t read anything at all last month. But I’m sure August will be better. Hopefully!

I don’t know what it is about Summer but I personally feel less inspired to read during this time. Perhaps it feels like there is more to do between June and August, that all my free time goes somewhere else. Or maybe the colder months are just cozier and a better atmosphere for reading. Whatever the reason is I hope to be back on track with my reading again soon.

What is the season you read best in? And which one do you think you read the least in? Let me know in the comments below.

Happy Reading,

June Wrap Up 2018

June Wrap Up Banner

I didn’t read as much as I thought I would last month.  I took a week long vacation around my birthday on the 15th, but only managed to read halfway through one book.  I suppose I ended up being busier than I thought I would be at the beach because I was under the impression that I could at least finish three books plus whatever else I might buy while I was there.  However, I did read two books and i started two others.  I’m currently debating adding what I’m reading at the moment into my monthly wrap ups but I’ve decided to include it in this one; so if you like seeing what I’m reading lately please let me know!

And now here are the books I read in June of 2018:

25733990

Sleeping Giants By Sylvain Neuvel was a surprisingly good book.  And I don’t say that because I expected it to be bad, but rather that I almost never read Science Fiction novels.  This is the first in a trilogy series and I can’t wait to get my hands on the second book.  Expect a book review coming soon!

If you didn’t read my last blog post then you may be wondering why I read a Sweet Valley High novel.  Well for starters I feel like there are classic book series that I missed out on growing up because I wasn’t invested in reading as much as I am today so I’ve been trying to experience them now; and also I had an idea to do a series here on my blog chronicling myself going through the entire series.  From what I have researched there are, I believe, about 140 books in the Sweet Valley High series so it would be almost a three year project if I read one book a week.  I was hoping to have others join me but I didn’t get a large response on my survey, though I did still create a goodreads group if you’d still like to join me.  I’ve only read the first book so far and it isn’t too late to join!

Onto the new section!

I don’t know how many people are like this when it comes to reading, but I typically read at least two or three books at a time.  Usually the books I read at the same time have to be different in genre and/or story line because I’ll tend to get characters mixed up otherwise, and at the moment I’m reading one Young Adult novel and a Urban Fantasy novel:

21469068

9361589

Both books I’ve owned for a while now and I’m liking each one so far.  I will admit that I thought I would be done with I’ll Meet You There by now but It is a little darker than I was expecting it to be which is causing me to read it slower than normal.  Other than that I hope to have them both read by the end of this month.

I’d really love to hear what all you have read recently or are reading currently.  Please let me know in the comments!

Happy Reading,

Meghan

May Wrap Up 2018

May Wrap Up Banner

So last month I didn’t read as much as I have in the past but that is mainly to do with the fact that for May I read a book with over 600 pages.  This is the biggest book I have read all year and it reminded me why I don’t usually read such large novels as I tend to be a slow reader and it did take me almost all month to finish it. But enough with all that,  here is what I read in May 2018:

24172101

 

35068592

 

Hope you had a more successful month in reading.  Though I did enjoy both books so maybe less is more in this case.

Happy Reading,

Meghan
