My April Reading List

Hello!

My goal for March was to read (at least) four books....I ended up reading eleven.

I did not, unfortunately, read the Tea Leaf Reading for Beginners. I have a bad habit of reading series and trilogies that demand my entire attention as opposed to stand-alone books. I think it's just easier for me to work my way through a series (when I gave all the books) instead of trying to pick out separate books to read.

I'm expanding my goal just slightly this month! I have a lovely job where I can read when it's not so busy. I imagine the summer months will be keeping me pretty busy so I should get a head start on my reading challenge now!

My April Reading List~

The Good Cat Spell Book by Gillian Kemp. I've had this book for about a year and I haven't even opened it!

The Dead of Night and A Killing Frost by John Marsden. I am obsessed with the movie Tomorrow When the War Began. I only just read the first book a few months ago. I decided to purchase the next two in the series to continue reading and hopefully I'll purchase the rest along the way!

Hollow City by Ransom Riggs. Reread the first book and fell in love with it all over again, and then discovered the second book wasn't far! Now I'll need to buy the third book....

Ink by Amanda Sun. It's cherry blossom season, and that makes me went to read my favourite book series that is set in Japan! I haven't read the third book yet so rereading the first two will give me a chance to do so =)

Deep Wizardry by Diane Duane. My purse mysteriously dumped out all my books and I haven't been able to find them so this one is missning from the pic. BUT I've had this book and the first book, So You Want To Be a Wizard, on my shelf for ages. I didn't realize I had never read the second book! Duane's writing is so enjoyable. The second book deals with the sea so I'm very interested to finish it =)

I really need to start working through my witchy bookshelf. Hopefully I can start reading two - three witchy books a month. I like sticking to just one subject when I'm studying. I'd really like to read my herbalism books to prepare myself for a workshop I'm doing in June buut I think I'll wait until next month to do so.

What are you reading this month?

Blessings,

My March Reading List

This year I've decided to challenge myself to read 100 books. This might seem like a small number to those of you who personally know me and my wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling bookshelf, but it's a surprisingly difficult number to reach. When I have a wee bit of downtime to spend on my heating pad [yay, muscle atrophy], I should be reading....but instead I scroll through the internet mindlessly. Time for that to stop!

I've decided to share my 'reading list' every month here on The Faolan Girl. I think that having a stack of books picked out will make it easier for me to get through. The only problem I face is finishing the trilogies and series I want to read....for instance, I can only find book 1 and book 3 of Cate Tiernan's Immortal Beloved series =/ and I want to re-read Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children [I haven't re-read it since it came out!], but the second book has gone missing in the depths of my bookshelf. Alas!

My March Reading List~

Keeping it small....for now. I've started each of these books in the past week so I might as well finish 'em!

The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater~ I will be rereading the series as I've had Blue Lily, Lily Blue sitting unread on my bookshelf for the past year....

I Was Here by Gayle Forman. Okay, so I've only ever read one book by Gayle Forman, but it was enough to make me a fan! I'm about five chapters into this one and I love it.

Tea Leaf Reading for Beginners by Caroline Dow. I've wanted this book for ages....I've picked it up at the bookstore and put it down many times....I finally bought it last week when I was in the city for my birthday. I'm excited to start reading it!

Now, don't be expecting any reviews from me other than 'IT WAS GREAT AND YOU ALL NEED TO READ IT', because that's the extent of my reviewing abilities. If I finish a book, odds are I will love it [or at the very least, enjoy it]. If I don't finish a book because I was struggling to keep interest halfway through, then I will pass that book on and not waste any more time on it. So rest assured if the book is on my 'finished' list, then I enjoyed it.

I have a Reading Challenge widget in my sidebar so you can keep track of my progress~ and feel free to add me on Goodreads if you're a member!

Blessings,
Faula
