DNF: Fever by Dee Shulman

So, as always, I wanted to read more than I did this month... Surprise, surprise ;P I don't expect May and June to be any different because I have my first public exams coming up and I'm planning on revising and doing really well so I don't know how much time I'll get to actually read, but hopefully I won't completely abandon my books :S But I did manage to read more than I did in March so that's good ;P 

My monthly maths:

Number of pages read in April: 3032 (+ 150 of the DNF)
Average number of pages per book: 379

My favourite book of this month, hands down, is...

INSURGENT by Veronica Roth

Insurgent (Divergent, #2)

My review will be posted on the 3rd. 

Here's what I'm most looking forward to reading in May:

Rules of Attraction (Perfect Chemistry, #2)  Black Heart Blue  Struck

And lastly, let me announce who did the most commenting this month! The winner is...

Iffath!

Thanks for commenting Iffath! ;D I had fewer comments than last month... But I also didn't post as much so I guess that's why... Anyway, bye April, hello May (tomorrow...)! :D

Book Blogger Hop #4

It's that time again, for the Book Blogger Hop, hosted by Jennifer at Crazy For Books! It gives bloggers a chance to hop around and find some awesome new blogs to follow! I frequently find new books that I need to read, and it's a great way to make new friends! Click the link above to sign up! =] Where is your favourite place to read? Curled up on the sofa, in bed, in the garden? My answer: My favourite place to read is in the corner of our corner sofa in the living room, when my brother is playing the Xbox, because then, I can block out the sounds of him blowing things up and just get lost in a book. I can't read there though if the TV's on, as I'll just end up watching the programme instead! I also like reading in bed, but sometimes I'll find myself drifting off, so I don't read there very often!

Title:  The Scorpio Races  Author:  Maggie Stiefvater Series:  Standalone Pages:  404 Publisher:  Scholastic Date of Publication:  25th October 2011 Source:  Publisher* Synopsis from Goodreads: It happens at the start of every November: the Scorpio Races. Riders attempt to keep hold of their water horses long enough to make it to the finish line. Some riders live. Others die. At age nineteen, Sean Kendrick is the returning champion. He is a young man of few words, and if he has any fears, he keeps them buried deep, where no one else can see them. Puck Connolly is different. She never meant to ride in the Scorpio Races. But fate hasn’t given her much of a chance. So she enters the competition — the first girl ever to do so. She is in no way prepared for what is going to happen. My Thoughts: I was really excited to read The Scorpio Races . I'm a huge fan of Maggie Stiefvater, and I've read all her previous books apart from Balla...
