January was a slightly slower reading month for me, as I started a second job at the library and classes are really busy this quarter! I have high hopes for the coming months, and have so many books I am excited to read really soon. 🙂
Here is a summary of what my book/blog life looked like this month:
Books I read in January:
ON THE BLOG:
My first post of the new year was my 2016 reading challenges! I have high hopes for this year, feel free to check out the challenges I am joining in on in 2016, including Nori’s Commenting 365 and Amber’s 6 Squared Challenge!
I reviewed A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas and The Year We Fell Apart by Emily Martin!
I also started doing Top Ten Tuesdays, hosted by The Broke and the Bookish! The two I did this month were Top Ten Books I’ve Recently Added to my TBR and Top Ten Fairy Tale Retellings!
Lastly, I posted my January book haul! In which I realize I have already bought too many books.

I have read a lot of good reviews about the “Lunar Chronicles”… Thinking about picking it up soon!😊
My favorite book so far this year has been “Corrupt” by Penelope Douglas!😋 I really loved the characters!
totally worth the read! I love this series. Oooh interesting! I’ll check it out 🙂
You sure should! And I’ll definitely check out the “Lunar Chronicles”☺️
Nice month! Love your choices. I’ve been meaning to read Winter, too 😀
I definitely put it off for a few months, but it is an amazing end to the series! I’m going to Marissa Meyer’s author event this week for Stars Above and I’m so excited!

That’s a bummer! But thanks, I hope it’s fun too.
I’m about to start Uprooted! I found it for $4 at Goodwill at last month. Good to know you liked it!
