I am so glad I entered this challenge. It seems like most of the books I read these days are "review" books, so now that there is a challenge it seems easier for me to do. Probably doesn't make sense, but when I have a "dead line" it makes things easier for me. This particular challenge is hosted by [FIKT] SHUN and PHANTASMIC READS.
I look at what I read this month, and it doesn't seem like much, so I am wondering where my time went. Hmmm... It seems like I was always reading something, but I guess there were only a few "reviews" ones for this month.
First - was HUSH by Stacey R. Campbell - my review is here
I loved this book. I got this one from Netgalley. The author is awesome and inspiring to me. She has sent me some signed books to do a give away on my blog here.
Second - Was WHISPER by Stacey R. Campbell - my review is here.
I got this one from Netgalley and it is part of the giveaway above. I really enjoyed these books :)!
Third - was THE WEATHER GIRL by Amy Vastine- my review is here
I got this one from PRISM BOOK TOURS as part of a blog tour. It is such a cute read.
I feel like there should be so many more on this post, but I guess I didn't get done as much as I thought I did. I have been trying to slow my trigger finger down when signing up for reviews, so maybe that is part of it. When I first started this blog I signed up for everything I could get my hands on. I quickly learned that, that was not the best plan. I was too overwhelmed...hehe. It was fun, but it was hard. Now I think I am finally catching up with all the ones I signed up for at the beginning of my journey. We shall see. There are so many fantastic books out there and when I see them come around for review it is VERY hard for me to not sign up. Oh, such a hard life I know..hehehe!
I have SO many books on my shelves to read that aren't review books. I never seem to get to them because of the millions of review ones. I really need to do a challenge one of these days.
ReplyDeleteThat is why I am doing this one! It is for review books! It seems like that is all I have time for, so when a challenge is involved it makes it more fun for me :)
DeleteIt is nice to have challenges for both reviews books and ones that are in your TBR pile. It really does help sometimes, I have no idea why but it does!
ReplyDeleteI don't know why it helps either, but it helps me a ton. Plus, I think it makes it more fun for me.
DeleteI have such a big reading pile that I feel I should be a part of this challenge, lol. Don't feel bad about not reading enough books. I think as long as you read SOME, you're good!

Thanks...I wish I could read more, but it's just not possible right now with life...hehe!
DeleteLove those covers of Hush and Whisper -- very different and eye-catching!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for stopping by! Jen @ YA Romantics
I love them also! They are such good books :)
DeleteThis sounds like a great challenge! Especially since you keep piling up more and more review books to read. ;)
ReplyDeleteI know...I know. I have an addiction...hehehe
DeleteI seem to read more library books than books I bought on my selves and I think it's because I have that deadline in the back of my head. It kind of forces me to make time for the book because I want to read it before I have to return it. This looks like a fun challenge! Good luck =)
ReplyDeleteI honestly never thought about it that way. I do much better when I have a deadline :). Thanks for stopping by :)
