Another 31 Days of Reading Update
Second Chance Summer - Morgan Matson
The House of the Scorpion - Nancy Farmer
Just Like Fate - Cat Patrick,Suzanne Young
What Really Happened in Peru - Cassandra Clare,Sarah Rees Brennan

So I couldn't fit anymore books in the last update!  So here is the rest:

 

December 28th I read Second Chance Summer by Morgan Matson.  So this was a great book and an absolute tearjerker!  Read at your own risk, have tissues ready!

 

December 29th I didn't get to read House of Scorpion because I was travelling, and I had to drive.  I hope to get back to it in the future.

 

December 30th I didn't read Just Like Fate by Cat Patrick and Suzanne Young because I had read it recently (and had the privilege of reviewing an ARC). I loved this story, but, I needed to get started on some ARC's due to come out in January!

 

December 31st I am planning to read The Bane Chronicles: What really happened in Peru by Cassandra Clare and Sarah Rees Brennan.  This shouldn't be a problem, as it is a novella and I love both of these authors and the Shadowhunter world!  

 

So I will have read a grand total of 23 of the 31 books in Simon PulseIt's 31 days of reading!  Wow, that's a lot for me!  I don't think I've ever read 23 books in a month before!  This was a lot of fun!  Head over to pulseit.com apparently they post books to read for free regularly, so I'm looking forward to reading more books in the future from this site!

31 days of reading
Winger - Andrew Smith
Wither (Chemical Garden) - Lauren DeStefano
Golden - Jessi Kirby
Letting Ana Go - Anonymous Anonymous
Haven - Kristi Cook

So here is my update for my Simon Pulse 31 Days of Reading Challenge:

 

Dec. 13th Winger by Andrew Smith: I didn't finish!  Honestly, I think I would have liked this book, if I'd had more time- I only got to read 5%! But reality called and there was a mountain of laundry and Christmas shopping that HAD to get done!

 

Dec. 14th Wither by Lauren DeStefano:  Finished and loved!  I read and enjoyed this series before, and It was nice to return to this world!

 

Dec. 15th Golden by Jessi Kirby: Finished and really enjoyed!  This book surprised me, it was a very enjoyable coming of age novel!

 

Dec. 16th Letting Ana Go by Anonymous: Finished and not quite sure how to explain my feelings about it!  I never read Go Ask Alice, so I didn't know what I was in for. Heartbreaking, real, horrifying and real!

 

Dec. 17th Haven by Kristi Cook: Finished and enjoyed!  Okay, so there are some obvious similarities to Twilight here, but I still really enjoyed this book!

 

And, I finished Rot and Ruin the other night so that bring my total up to 14 out of the 17 books so far!  Yay! Go, me!

31 days of reading update
Let the Sky Fall - Shannon Messenger
The Forsaken - Lisa M. Stasse
Unwind - Neal Shusterman
Blood Red Road (Dust Lands, #1) - Moira Young
Fault Line - Christa Desir
Maid of Secrets - Jennifer McGowan
Linked - Imogen Howson
Crash - Lisa McMann
Rot & Ruin (Benny Imura #1) - Jonathan Maberry
Two-Way Street - Lauren Barnholdt

I've been too busy reading to write, LOL!.  So, here's what's been happening with my 31 days of reading with Simon Pulse challenge:

 

Day 3: Let the Sky Fall Finished and loved it! I had this on my to-read list for awhile, so I was glad to finally get to read it, and for free no less!

 

Day 4: The Forsaken Finished and loved it!  A bit like The Maze Runner, very enjoyable!

 

Day 5: Unwind Finished and loved it!  I had heard of this book, but didn't know what it was about, really.  I was pleasantly surprised.

 

Day 6: Blood Red Road Didn't Finish, unfortunately.  I had a headache and the writing just wasn't working for me that day.  I have been wanting to read this, so I will definitely come back to it at some point.

 

Day 7: Fault Lines Finished and really enjoyed.  This is one of those heartbreakers.  It involves rape, but is told from the girl's boyfriend's point of view.

 

Day 8: Maid of Secrets Didn't finish, mainly I just didn't have enough time in the day, and I have to sleep at some point, LOL. Intriguing story so far, I will definitely come back to it in the future!

 

Day 9: Linked Finished and loved it!  Creepy dystopian novel, very enjoyable!

 

Day 10: Crash Finished and really enjoyed!  Interesting story and concept, enjoyed the sarcasm, wit, and romance!

 

Day 11:  Rot and Ruin Haven't finished yet, but I'm hoping to get back to it tonight!  Enjoying it so far, and I'm not usually a zombie fan.  

 

Day 12:  Two-Way Street Finshed and really enjoyed!  Told in alternating points of view and time frames (before and after) made for a little suspense to this enjoyable teen romance. 

 

So far, I have finished 9 out of the first 12 books!  Pretty good, right? It's better than I thought I would do!

Hush, Hush
Hush, Hush - Becca Fitzpatrick

I had read this book before, but decided to read it again as part of Simon Teen's Pulse It 31 days of reading.  http://www.pulseit.com/ It was free for 24 hours yesterday and I managed to get through it!

 

I really enjoyed reading this again, going back to the beginning of Patch and Nora's story.  This was a great series, and I'm glad I got the opportunity to revisit it!
