April Book Update

Tags : 

Hey all,

I’ve made a goal to read at least two books a month this year.

Sometimes I read a lot of books, and sometimes I don’t. This year I’m going for consistency.

The following are the books I either read or listened to in April.

I’m actually ahead of my goal so far. (Knock on wood.)

I started this one a few months ago, but the first chapter didn’t grab me, so I put it down.
This time through I got into the kick-butt characters and unique monster hunting style.
If you like a bit of mystery combined with horror check this one out.
I bought this one at a writing conference I attended a few months ago.
It’s a lovely fairy tale with a charming style and a fun mash-up.
Check it out if you’re a fairy tale junkie, and maybe even if you aren’t.
I picked this one up because I know one of the authors. It’s a bit off my beaten path, but it’s been fun and enlightening to read short stories from cultures I know very little about outside of mainstream entertainment.
I find I enjoy it most when I read one or two, put it down for a few days, then go back to it.
If you’d like to expand your cultural palette a bit this one is for you.

March Book Update

Tags : 

Hey all,

I’ve made a goal to read at least two books a month this year.

Sometimes I read a lot of books, and sometimes I don’t. So this year, like in my writing, I’m going for consistency.

The following are the books I either read or listened to in March.

I finished all of these in March! I’m actually ahead of my goal so far. (Knock on wood.)

A fun detective romp with the added bonus of monsters! Fun voice, twisty plot. Good times.
This isn’t usually my genre, but I enjoyed it!
I don’t even remember why I downloaded this book, but I really enjoyed it!
A great voice for the character, a unique magic system, and rampaging gingerbread cookies. Check this out if you love clean, clever, YA!
A quirky, futuristic tale with a Groundhog’s Day basis. Sort of.
I liked both characters, and while the story was a little slower than I prefer, I didn’t have a difficult time finishing the book.
