I am knocking all of my reading goals out of the park this year, and that’s in no small part because of my “Read the best books first” mantra. Are you getting sick of hearing about that yet? I talk about it all the time because it has drastically improved my reading experience. In any case, here’s a look at my fantastic month in reading, reviews, and posts.
Books Read:
- Fever by Lauren DeStefano
- Sever by Lauren DeStefano
- Abaddon’s Gate by James S. A. Corey
- Fire and Flood by Victoria Scott
- Invaded by Melissa Landers
- The Merchant Emperor by Elizabeth Haydon
- Havoc by Ann Aguirre
- Killer Frost by Jennifer Estep
- The Novice by Taran Matharu
- Legion by Brandon Sanderson
- The Winner’s Crime Marie Rutkowski
- The Republic of Thieves by Scott Lynch
See… I told you I had a kickass month in reading. I can’t decide if my favorite was the conclusion to the Chemical Garden trilogy by Lauren DeStefano or Havoc by Ann Aguirre… It’s like comparing apples to oranges – they were both so good! I also loved Legion, Invaded, Abaddon’s Gate… Okay, I’ll stop. This “Read the Best Books First” thing is really working out for me.
Books Reviewed:
The Winner’s Crime by Marie Rutkowski – 0/5 stars (DNF)
The Glass Arrow by Kristen Simmons – 1.5/5 stars
Skinwalker by Faith Hunter – 3.5/5 stars
The Assassin King by Elizabeth Haydon – 4/5 stars
Abaddon’s Gate by James S. A. Corey – 4.5/5 stars
Legion by Brandon Sanderson – 5/5 stars!
Overall, I’m quite happy with all of my reviews. I have a tendency to think everything I write is total crap (as most writers do), so the fact that I actually like everything I wrote this month is something to celebrate. :-)
Waiting on Wednesday Features:
- July 21, 2016

Other Fun Stuff:
I don’t have much in the way of adventures this month – I missed out on two or three amazing ones because I got sick. But I did have a few days off to soak in some puppy cuteness:
you’re welcome.
How was your month in reading?
I have one more book I have to review in April and then I need to read The Winner’s Curse!
