Also -- I've only bought four books this month. Two of which were Kindle Daily Deals so I got them for about $2. Not too bad!

Important Posts: Something New....
January wasn't my most productive month. While I did rally in the second half, the most "reading" I did in the first twelve days was the wiki summaries of Goodkind's books to figure out which one had the evil chicken. Still, I may have only read eight books, but one of them was 1100 pages, which is basically three regular books. I'm counting it.

(My actual favorite quote is too spoilery to put here, but if you've read WoR, let me say Swallowed by the Sky.)

Oh noooo I'm sorry to hear that January was a bit rough for you. :( That's no fun. I have The Young Elites and The Imposter Queen on my TBR but haven't read them yet. I enjoyed Gena/Finn :) Whoaaaaa evil chicken whaaat? 0.0 Kudos to you for reading a 1100page book! *cheers* I hope February is a better month for you both! <3
ReplyDeleteIt was just a bit unfun but it evened out by the end :) And yes the Evil Chicken is from an author named Terry Goodkind and it is terrible and hilarious and the only memorable thing he has contributed to the world. I'm serious :D <3
DeleteThat bookstagram post is so pretty Jessie!!! I hope February is better for you. January was similar for me bookwise, although on a smaller level haha. I really want to try The Young Elites and The Impostor Queen. Reading an 1100 page book TOTALLY counts as 3, Danielle! That's a lot of reading.
ReplyDeleteOh thank you! That book is so pretty I had to find a way to get the colors.
DeleteAnd yes Morgan! I think ypu'll like both but especially The Impostor Queen would be a good one for you with your love of theories and worldbuilding and ice and fire ;)
