I’m currently reading  The Hostile Hospital by Lemony Snicket, the eighth book in the A Series of Unfortunate Events series. As I just mentioned yesterday in my Teaser Tuesdays post, a few months ago I found out Netflix is planning on making a live-action TV show based on this series! And since I never finished reading it when I was younger, I’ve been slowly working my way through it.

 

I am also currently reading the third book in the Nikki & Michael series, Chasing the Shadows by Keri Arthur. I’m still really enjoying this series so far and I’m sad that there is only one more book after this one. Hopefully it will have a satisfying ending.

 

 


What did I recently finish reading?

I just finished  My Soul to Take by Rachel Vincent, the first book in the Soul Screamers series. It was an enjoyable read with a unique plot. I wished I liked the main character a bit more, but I’m hoping she’ll grow on me as I continue reading this series.

 

 


What do I think I’ll read next?

My Soul to Save (Soul Screamers, #2)

Next I’m planning on reading My Soul to Save by Rachel Vincent, the second book in the Soul Screamers series. Since I’m reading both this series and A Series of Unfortunate Events on my NOOK, I’ll probably start this up after I finish with The Hostile Hospital.

WWW Wednesdays #2 – May 20th

WWW Wednesdays

WWW Wednesdays is a weekly bookish meme formally hosted by MizB of A Daily Rhythm, and revived by Sam of Taking on a World of Words. This meme consists of answering the following three questions:

  • What are you currently reading?
  • What did you recently finish reading?
  • What do you think you’ll read next?

What am I currently reading?

I am currently reading My Soul to Take by Rachel Vincent. It is the first book in the Soul Screamers series. I’ve read the first two books in Vincent’s adult fiction series, Shifters, and wasn’t overly impressed, so I wasn’t sure how much I would like her young adult series. However, I am enjoying this book so far. The romance is a bit rushed for my taste, but the plot is definitely interesting and unique.


What did I recently finish reading?

I literally just finished Hearts in Darkness by Keri Arthur about half an hour ago. It is the second book in the Nikki & Michael series. I’m really enjoying this series so far. It’s fast-paced and filled with action. There’s romance involved as well, but in this book and the first it kind of sits on the back-burner of the plot. I’m looking forward to reading the next two books in the series.

 


What do I think I’ll read next?

I’m definitely going to be reading the third book in the Nikki & Michael series, Chasing the Shadows by Keri Arthur. Once I finish all four books I’ll be posting a review! :)

 

 

 


Let me know if you’ve read any of these books or even if any are on your TBR list!

Happy reading! :)

WWW Wednesdays #1 – May 13th

WWW Wednesdays

As I mentioned in my Teaser Tuesdays post yesterday, I’ll also be participating in WWW Wednesdays, another weekly bookish meme formally hosted by MizB of A Daily Rhythm, and revived by Sam of Taking on a World of Words. This meme consists of answering the following three questions:

  • What are you currently reading?
  • What did you recently finish reading?
  • What do you think you’ll read next?

What am I currently reading?

I am currently reading Blue is for Nightmares by Laurie Faria Stolarz. I’m a little over two-thirds done with this book and I admit I’m struggling. None of the characters are likable, to me at least. The plot was what interested me in the first place and it’s not terrible, but because I don’t particularly like any of the characters it’s just turning out to be a disappointing read. I’ve already decided I’m not going to be finishing this series and I probably won’t even review it either. I’ll post a small review on Goodreads but otherwise I don’t think I want to bother with an entire post. It sounds harsh, but it’s mostly due to laziness.

I also just started Dancing With the Devil by Keri Arthur. I read two of her other short series and really enjoyed her characters and writing style, so I wanted to try reading more of her books. I’m only one chapter in so far but even those first twenty pages have made me look forward to the rest of this book.

 


What did I recently finish reading?

I finished up Undone Deeds by Mark Del Franco last night at work. This was the sixth and final book in the Connor Grey series and it was fantastic. The ending was a bit confusing, but there were a few major plot twists that I definitely did not see coming. I posted a review on the first three books a few weeks ago and will try to get one up for the last three sometime this week.

 


What do I think I’ll read next?

After I finish up Blue is for Nightmares, I think I’ll start My Soul to Take by Rachel Vincent. After deciding to read multiple books at once, I’ve tried to read one on my NOOK and the other a physical copy. I’ve also found myself flipping between adult fiction and young adult fiction. So because I will not be continuing the series by Stolarz, I decided I’d try this one out on my NOOK (since Dancing With the Devil is the book I’m reading as a physical copy). Sorry if that sounds confusing. But yeah.


Let me know if you’ve read any of these books or even if any are on your TBR list!

Happy reading! :)
