January has come and gone. I've had a great start to 2015. I've exercised and read to my hearts content. I have a lot of reviews I have yet to write and a lot of books I still plan to read. I wasn't able to read a series in January but I was able to read a bunch of books for the Reading Road Trip Challenge and other challenges. I know I'll have many challenges I need to get through in order to keep along this path with school, books, blogging, and exercise but before those happen I want to go back to January and see all I have accomplished.

February Plans
My book plans for February is to read a series like I wanted to in January. I want to re-read at least one book, read eight new books, review all or almost all the books I read in January, review at least 3 NetGalley books, and start the Redwall series. My first February read will be:
What are your plans for February?
Are you going to read any romances?
What were your favorite reads of January?
Looks like a great plan for February. Picture books count in my mind. Just took a little detour when I saw the name Cory Doctorow as I really enjoyed his Little Brother novel and I see it is the same author. I have some romances planned for Feb - even though it is Valentine's month I usually have some romance reading for every month!
ReplyDeletePicture books never counted before but I like them and they are books so I count them now.
DeleteI've never read Little Brother but I've meaning to. In Real Life was fantastic - really eye catching art and great story.
Yeah, I'm a romance read type of girl as well (:
hope you keep up with your plan for Feb, main is to read the 12 books I'm planning to finish this month :D
ReplyDeleteWow 12! That's a great goal. I hope they are all fantastic :D
DeleteGood to hear your January has been nice! Mine has too :D
ReplyDelete- Love, Felicia

Oh good! January was really great, I hope to keep it up.
DeleteGreat recap! So many challenges, so little time. :) Good luck with all of them.
ReplyDeleteYes, I went crazy this year. I'm glad I'm keeping up with all the challenges so far.
DeleteGreat reading! So far I've only visited 2 states on the road trip though I've made multiple visits to Maine. Who knew I read so many books set there? I've heard good things about The Host! Hope you love it and have a great reading month!
ReplyDeleteI only know one book in main. I'm curious what your Maine books were. The Host is really but really long! I need to make time for it. Hopefully I'll be done by tomorrow and I'll enjoy the ending.
