Iodine

Book number 53 was an actual print book that has been sitting on my shelves for at least 2 years. I have too many books and so not enough time to read them all... so as tempted as I am to keep downloading new books on my Nook and read them... I really have to start making a dent in my book shelves. hush, hush by Becca Fitzpatrick was a very very good book. I love novels about fallen angels... they are probably the most mysterious creatures in the paranormal genre. I cannot wait to continue reading this series.
As you can see I made it past 52 books this year.

Untouchable Number

I have fallen way behind on blogging my books. I now have 4 books to write about and have begun reading a 5th, that shouldn't take me too long to read. The first book I have to blog about is my 52nd book and I read it in under 24 hours. Revealers by Amanda Marrone was impossible to put down. I enjoyed every second of it. She brought all new theories to the idea of witch novels. I only wish she was planning a series based on the book. Knowing there would be no more was very upsetting.

14th Lucky Number

Finished reading another book in the Morganville series, Kiss of Death. This is probably one of  my favorite Morganville books, since the group is able to leave Morganville, it opens up a bunch of new possibilities for the story and the author took full advantage. Who knew these people would get themselves into so much trouble after leaving vampire central and entering the "real world". But boy did they. I can't wait to see what happens next because there is so much Rachel Caine can do with this.

1 Sacred Talent

Book number 50 was my debut author for November, Shatter Me by Tamereh Mafi. Everything about this book was original and very interesting. She took two of my favorite YA genres and put them together: dystopian and supernatural, what more could a girl ask for? Loved the characters, loved the story line, loved the ending. Now I just can't wait for the second one to come out.

7x7

Just finished off the Wake trilogy a few days ago. I enjoyed the series very much but I felt the last book Gone was a bit bland and weak. I'm happy that she kind of left Janie's story open by saying that she had made her choice "for now" but the rest of the story could have been stronger... like the first two books.

Abundant

Book number 48 was Fade, the second book in the Wake trilogy by Lisa McMann. I read Wake a while back and kept pushing the next two books aside because I kept thinking it wasn't that great and didn't need to be continued just yet. Turns out I had it confused with another series. Now that I fully remember the first book and have completed the second I realize that it is an awesome series. Very different from what I usually read and very emotional (or maybe that's just me... everything makes me cry lately). Can't wait to finish up the trilogy but also very sad that there are only 3 books.

"It's me, Sugar"

Once again I am falling behind... not only with reading but with blogging about it. I finished book #47 last week and just completed book #48 today. Oops... well my 47th book was Crave by Melissa Darnell. Not much to say, it wasn't a life changing book but it is definitely going to be a great series and I am hooked. Cannot wait to see what happens next.
