February Wrap-Up & March TBR

There goes another month, just zooming by! February has been one of the most unsuccessful months ever! I read only five books in February and I'm sad that I didn't like a lot of the ones I read. I only hope that I get more luck in March with my reading schedules and the books I read. I plan on reading some really great books in March, so that shouldn't be a problem!

February Wrap-Up

My favorite book of the month would have to go to The Glass Arrow by Kristen Simmons. Second place is Red Queen! These two books are just the perfect mix and boundary between high fantasy and a great, action-packed read! Pick them up if you've been wanting to get rid of a reading slump. One of the Guys by Lisa Aldin was also a terrific read! I was able to meet Spencer Hill Press, the publishing company of the book over the previous weekend, and they told me all about the book. Perfect contemporary read with the slightest amount of drama. Half Bad was a DNF for me. Sorry you witch book people. And lastly, The Raven Boys wasn't bad at all! It just wasn't that great either and overall a very confusing book! I heard it get's better though so I will be continuing with this series. A great dark urban fantasy read!

March TBR

I'm reading The Diviners by Libba Bray for a buddy read with the awesome Diamond from Dee's Reads. I'm so excited for this one because I rarely ever do get a chance to pick up a historical fiction novel. Harry Potter is going to be a continuation of my HP marathon even though I'm quite caught back on it and getting there slowly. I'm also not sticking to the schedule. Miss Mayhem is the second book in the Rebel Belle series by Rachel Hawkins which I have received an ARC paperback copy of because I requested it so many times and bothered the hell out of the publisher xD! I would like to get to the Madman's Daughter. AND FINALLY... Girl Online is my TBR Jar pick of the week! Idk how I feel about it. Anyone reading it before?

Leave links to your TBR or Wrap-Up posts and I'll definitely check some out!

Great post, Alex! :) Sadly, I only read three books for February. I was busy learning about book-blogging.

I wasn't too impressed with Half Bad either, maybe it was all the hype surrounding it that got to me but it didn't impress me at all. I really want to read Glass Arrow, it sounds really good :)

Oh Girl Online. I'd say DON'T DO IT DON'T DO IT but secretly I want to read it too. Apparently there's a ghostwriter *rolls eyes*

I haven't read The GLass Arrow but I HAVE read Red Queen and that was spectacular! Awesome month <3

Nice reads! I loved RQ, and The Glass Arrow was pretty great :) I can't wait to read your thoughts on The Madman's Daughter. ALEX HOW DO YOU GET STUFF FROM PENGUIN?! I must know how you cracked that, I NEED Blood & Salt by Kim Liggett like I need air. Slight exaggeration but still ;) Happy March!

Ugh I need to get my hands on Red Queen and Glass Arrow! I have major coverly love for both of them. The Diviners has also been something I've been wanting to read for a really long time now but never got to. I really can't wait to hear what you think of The Chamber of Secrets! Also, I promise The Raven Boys Cycle gets better. The first one was a rough one at first for me too. =)

*waves* I HAVEN'T read The Mad Man's Daughter! (Even though I saw at the library the other day and COULD have gotten it, but chose not to. I've only read about 5 books this month. o_o

I also read five books this month! But I enjoyed most of them: http://thebook-nook.weebly.com/home/february-wrap-up
I want to read Red Queen, but I am always nervous to read books where the sequels aren't coming out for another year. I'm really forgetful. I hope you enjoy Chamber of Secrets. It's one of my favorites!

Oooh, if you liked The Glass Arrow more than Red Queen then I must read it because Red Queen was pretty darn awesome! Can't wait for your Harry Potter review!! Chamber of Secrets is probably my least favorite, but it was still enjoyable! From book 3 and on it will get more amazing and more awesome with each book!

I have read The Glass Arrow and I absolutely adored it! I thought it was a brilliant book and although a bit slow paced in the beginning I couldn't help but race through it after that. I also fell in love with Kiran <3

Half Bad wasn't good? Aw man. I was looking forward to reading that series. I DNFed The Raven Boys because it just didn't keep my attention.
