September 2012 Round-Up

I cannot believe it is October tomorrow! This year has gone so fast, as has this month, and it's time for another monthly round-up, yay! Haha, so if you don't know what these are yet, then basically it's just me, rounding up what I've read and telling you want my favourite was, what I didn't like (if there were any) etc etc. So, here's what I read!

Zom-B (Zom-B, #1)  Unspoken (The Lynburn Legacy, #1)  Alice in Zombieland (White Rabbit Chronicles, #1)

1. Rage Within by Jeyn Roberts
2. Zom-B by Darren Shan
3. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
4. Hold Still by Nina LaCour
5. Unspoken by Sarah Rees Brennan
6. What's Left of Me by Kat Zhang
7. Boys Don't Cry by Malorie Blackman
8. Alice in Zombieland by Gena Showalter
9. Poltergeeks by Sean Cummings (half)

So, I'm still reading Poltergeeks while I'm writing this, but I want to hopefully finish it today, and if I do it will go into my September books so I've added it anyway... My favourite of the month is listed below, but some of my other favourites were Alice in Zombieland, and Unspoken. I had to read Pride and Prejudice for school as we are studying it in English, and while it took me a while to get used to the writing style, I really enjoyed it towards the end, when everything finally comes together for Elizabeth and Mr Darcy... I didn't read any bad books this month (yay!) although I had some trouble with Rage Within as I just don't think I was quite in the right mood for it. Never mind, it was a still a good read on the whole so all was okay in the end. 

Number of pages read this month: 2705
Average number of pages per book: 301

My favourite book of September was:

WHAT'S LEFT OF ME by Kat Zhang

What's Left of Me (The Hybrid Chronicles, #1)

My review can be read here.

These are the books I'm most looking forward to reading in October: 

The Diviners  Breathe (Breathe, #1)  Time Between Us

And lastly, here are some awesome new releases, coming in October! 

Poltergeeks (Poltergeeks, #1)  The Assassin's Curse (The Assassin's Curse, #1)  Breathe (Breathe, #1)

  Finale (Hush, Hush, #4)  Eve and Adam  Alice in Zombieland (White Rabbit Chronicles, #1)

Thanks for reading! Let me know in the comments what you've read this month, and if there's anything you're desperate to read in October!
