My 2015 Book List

Here is the list of books I want to read in 2015 (yes there is a reason that there is only 30) and what weeks I will be reading them so you can read along with me if you want. This list may change due to a new book being released that I forgot about or due to having to read a book to review it so keep referring back to the 'Book List 2015' tab on the top of the page.

There is one book on the list that is a repeat from last year as I read it early last year and I plan on reading book two this year and I can't remember what it was about in all that detail.

Challenging Myself

I have decided that for the next 18 weeks left in 2014, I am going to read a book a week now that all my boyfriends wrestling shows have finished.

This idea came from Jessica Brody's self book in a day challenge and it is so I can get as close to my goodreads challenge as possible as I am not going to beat it as I need to read 21, maybe I will be able to read a book in less than a week and be able to sneak another in but we will see.

I will be starting my challenge on Monday September 1st as I am giving myself the weekend to finish reading the last few chapters of Jessica Brody's Unforgotten.

Here is a list of the Mondays in the year and what book I plan on reading that week some weeks it may change depending on what mood I am in and how much Uni work I have to do that week.

All these books have been taken from my 2014 reading list:

1. Sept 1st - Echo by Alyson Noel
2. Sept 8th - Until I Die by Amy Plum
3. Sept 15th - Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins
4. Sept 22nd - Mystic by Alyson Noel
5. Sept 29th - If I Should Die by Amy Plum
6. Oct 6th - Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins
7. Oct 13th - Horizon by Alyson Noel
8. Oct 20th - Switched by Amanda Hocking
9. Oct 27th - A Witch in Winter by Ruth Warburton
10. Nov 3rd - Billy and Me by Giovanna Fletcher
11. Nov 10th - Someday, Someday Maybe by Lauren Graham
12. Nov 17th - Torn by Amanda Hocking 
13. Nov 24th - A Witch in Love by Ruth Warburton
14. Dec 1st - Entwined by Heather Dixon
15. Dec 8th - The Anti-Prom by Abby McDonald
16. Dec 15th - Ascend by Amanda Hocking
17. Dec 22nd - A Witch Alone by Ruth Warburton
18. Dec 29th - Enchanted by Aletha Kontis

As you may have noticed series books have been separated as I cannot read a whole series in one go as I get bored of the characters if I do that and I would not want to finish the series so they are broken up by other series books or by single books.

This also means that the review's will now longer be posted on a Saturday but on a Sunday instead unless I manage to finish the book before then.

Currently Reading: Unforgotten by Jessica Brody
Read in 2014: 8/30

Happy reading all x

Musing Mondays

Should Be Reading

What was the last book you could not finish and why?

The Last book I could not finish was Switched by Amanda Hocking. I'm not sure why I couldn't finish it I think it was because I just couldn't get into the book because I wanted to read Alyson Noel's Everlasting novel. I do plan on reading Switched again next year because I have been told the series is actually good.

Also The Chronicles of Vladimr Tod because I was busy with uni work to get round to finishing it, I decided to buy the collection so that I can read them when I get round to it.

How about you what book have you not finished and why?

Wishlist Wednesday book of the week is:

Ascend by Amanda Hocking

Wendy Everly is facing an impossible choice. The only way to save the Trylle from their deadliest enemy is by sacrificing herself. If she doesn't surrender to the Vittra, her people will be thrust into a brutal war against an unbeatable foe. But how can Wendy leave all her friends behind...even if it's the only way to save them?

The stakes have never been higher, because her kingdom isn't the only thing she stands to lose. After falling for both Finn and Loki, she's about to make the ultimate choice...who to love forever. One guy has finally proven to be the love of her life--and now all their lives might be coming to an end.

Everything has been leading to this moment. The future of her entire world rests in her hands--if she's ready to fight for it.
