It's Monday! What are you reading? (Dec 7)

This is a weekly book meme hosted by J. Kaye over at J. Kaye's Book Blog.

Another one book week. :( I didn't get much reading done this weekend due to the hustle and bustle of the upcoming holidays but it looks like things are finally settling in and my schedule is showing more normalcy than it has been lately. Just a few weeks left in December and I'm going to push through the rest of 2009 and get in as many books as I can. In other news, less than 10 days left till I announce the winners to my first ever giveaway! Exciting!! :)


Completed this past week:

- Truly, Madly by Heather Webber (Review to be posted later today!)

Currently reading:



Blue Moon By Alyson Noel


Up and Coming:

The 39 Clues: In Too Deep by Jude Watson
The Things That Keep Us Here by Carla Buckley (ARC)
Shadows Edge (Night Angel #2) by Brent Weeks
...AND LOTS MORE.

I know I had Blue Moon featured on my "It's Monday!" post a few weeks ago, but I'm finally getting around to reading it. I'm looking forward to seeing how the story progresses.

It's Monday! What are you reading? (Nov 30)

This is a weekly book meme hosted by J. Kaye over at J. Kaye's Book Blog.

Ahh, Thanksgiving has come and gone and I must say that it was an excellent week. Even despite the fact that I didn't get as much reading in as I would have liked. But I did reach (and pass!) 100 followers which is quite exciting! I can't wait to get the ball rolling for my first ever giveaway. I'm hoping to make some lovely people happy. :)



Completed this past week:

- Boneshaker by Cherie Priest (Review to be posted later today!)

Currently reading:

It's Monday! What are you reading? (Nov 23)


This is a weekly book meme hosted by J. Kaye over at J. Kaye's Book Blog.

Ahh, I can't believe Thanksgiving is almost here! But will I let that stop my reading this week? Absolutely not. I've got some great books coming up and I can't wait to get started. For those of you just tuning in, make sure to check out my first ever giveaway! I've got some great books up for grabs so make sure to check it out. :)



Completed this past week:

- Evermore by Alyson Noel (review in progress!)
- School of Fear by Gitty Daneshvari

Currently reading:




Blue Moon (Immortals #2) by Alyson Noel (Possibly. Still undecided)


Up and Coming:

Truly, Madly by Heather Webber (ARC)
The Things That Keep Us Here by Carla Buckley (ARC)
Soulless by Gail Carriger
Shadows Edge (Night Angel #2) by Brent Weeks

Most likely in that order. Unless of course I just HAVE to have Shadowland (Immortals #3). In which case I'll probably just go out and buy it. And spend more money I shouldn't be spending. It's seems resistance is futile whenever books are concerned.

It's Monday! What are you reading? (Nov 16)


This is a weekly book meme hosted by J. Kaye over at J. Kaye's Book Blog.

Another two book week for me again. For some reason or another, I lost my reading mojo and had a hard time getting comfy. But I am determined to rectify the situation, even despite a busy work schedule. Keeping my fingers crossed that I'll be back to book fiend status soon! :)



Completed this past week:

- Hush, Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick (review in progress!)
- The Way of Shadows (Night Angel Trilogy #1) by Brent Weeks

Currently reading:




Hush, Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick - (I'm re-reading it!)
Evermore (The Immortals #1) by Alyson Noel (I will be starting this shortly. Although I may push it back to my TBR pile...again)

Up and Coming:

Shadows Edge (Night Angel #2) by Brent Weeks
Beyond the Shadows (Night Angel #3) by Brent Weeks
Blue Moon (The Immortals #2) by Alyson Noel
Wake by Lisa McMann
Boneshaker by Cherie Priest

In no order, to be honest. I'm sporadic when it comes to what I want to read next. I'll probably finish the Night Angel Trilogy and then go from there. I suppose I'll have to make a decision or move books around once the postal service decides to give me my new books. Fingers crossed that I get them soon!

It's Monday! What are you reading? (Nov 9)


This is a weekly book meme hosted by J. Kaye over at J. Kaye's Book Blog.

Gah! Just two books this week. Work has slowly started to eat into my reading time as the holidays swiftly approach. Or I'm just really bad at managing my time, but I prefer to blame it on my job, haha.




Completed this past week:

- Fluke, or Why the Winged Whale Sing by Christopher Moore (review in process!)
- Fire by Kristin Cashore

Currently reading:


The Way of Shadows by Brent Weeks - (I'm really enjoying it so far!)

Up Next:

Shadows Edge (Night Angel #2) by Brent Weeks
Beyond the Shadows (Night Angel #3) by Brent Weeks




And then...I HAVE NO IDEA. I managed to make my way over to The Book Depository the other day and found my checking account to be 45 dollars lighter. How can one resist $8 hardback books?! Not to mention the fact that I have 2 ARCs making their way to my home along with 2 books I luckily managed to win in a contest (I never win anything so I was nicely surprised). I expect a few "In My Mailbox" posts will be up soon. :)

A good week of reading, if I do say so myself. It's been awhile since I've had such a solid line-up. Quite enjoyable. As it stands, I've decided to hold off on getting more library books so I can focus on the haul I recently purchased a week or so ago. So much reading, so little time!



Completed this past week:

Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater
Max by James Patterson
Impossible by Nancy Werlin

Currently reading:

Fire by Kristin Cashore

Up Next:

Fluke: Or, I Know Why the Winged Whale Sings by Christopher Moore
Looking For Alaska by John Green
Geek High by Piper Banks
Evermore by Alyson Noel

(May change depending on my mood or how quickly I read/finish them)

It's Monday! What are you reading? (Oct 19)


This is a weekly book meme hosted by J. Kaye over at J. Kaye's Book Blog.

Ahhh, work has been kicking my butt as of late. Work and more work is leaving me a lot less time for reading, and this saddens my heart. Hopefully, once the holiday hours kick in, things will start to settle down. I went the entire weekend without picking up a book (up until Sunday night) and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that won't happen very often.

Completed this past week:

Life As We Knew It by Susan Pfeffer
The Magician's Elephant by Kate DiCamillo
Unwind by Neal Shusterman

Currently reading:

The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Prisoner's Dilemma by Trenton Lee Stewart
