March 2013 Wrap-Up

Hey, so another month has gone, and here's what I read this month!

The Madness Underneath (Shades of London, #2)  Requiem (Delirium, #3)  Hidden (Avena, #1)

1. The Name of the Star by Maureen Johnson
2. The Madness Underneath by Maureen Johnson
3. Requiem by Lauren Oliver
4. Hidden by Marianne Curley
5. Zom-B City by Darren Shan
6. This Is What Happy Looks Like by Jennifer E. Smith
7. In The Shadow of Blackbirds by Cat Winters (half way through)

Yay, I read more than four books this month! I'm slowly getting back into reading, I think, so hopefully it'll last but it's exams soon so we'll see. The Name of the Star was a reread, so that I'd be completely ready for The Madness Underneath, and seriously, this series is amazing. I hope to have my review of The Madness Underneath up this month, seeing as it's already pretty late... I finished the Delirium trilogy, with the final book Requiem, and my review is here. I wasn't happy with the open end, but I went to Lauren Oliver's signing and she explained why she left it like that and now I can appreciate it. I actually managed to post my review of Hidden within a few days of finishing it, and that can be found here. Zom-B City was a good quick read, and In The Shadow of Blackbirds is proving to be very spooky so far... But that's good, I'm really enjoying it!

Pages read this month: 2230
Average number of pages per book: 343

 My favourite book of the month was...

THIS IS WHAT HAPPY LOOKS LIKE by Jennifer E. Smith

This Is What Happy Looks Like

I loved this! It's not often that I'm able to read a 400 page book in one day, but with this one I did. My review will be posted later this week, hopefully.

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

The Hit  The Madman's Daughter (The Madman's Daughter, #1)  Between Shades of Gray

And here are some other new releases to look forward to!

Impostor (Slide #2)    This Is What Happy Looks Like
In the Shadow of Blackbirds  Geekhood: Mission Improbable  The Elite (The Selection, #2)

Thanks for reading, and don't forget to let me know in the comments what you've been reading this month!

    You had a really good month, Bella! Although I didn't enjoy The Statistical Probability very much I really want to read This is What Happy Looks Like so I'm really glad that you enjoyed it.

    I've already read The Hit and I don't think you'll be disappointed; it's such a good book!
    I'm also waiting for The Elite because I loved The Selection.

    Wishing you the best for April! :)

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!

Book Review: The Unexpected Everything by Morgan Matson

Title:  The Unexpected Everything Author:  Morgan Matson Series:   standalone Pages:   518 Publisher:  Simon and Schuster Date of Publication: 5th May, 2016 Source:  Spare review copy passed on* Synopsis from Goodreads: Andie has a plan. And she always sticks to her plan. Future? A top-tier medical school. Dad? Avoid him as much as possible (which isn’t that hard considering he’s a Congressman and he’s never around). Friends? Palmer, Bri, and Toby—pretty much the most awesome people on the planet, who needs anyone else? Relationships? No one’s worth more than three weeks. So it’s no surprise that Andie’s got her summer all planned out too. Until a political scandal costs Andie her summer pre-med internship, and lands both she and Dad back in the same house together for the first time in years. Suddenly she’s doing things that aren’t Andie at all—working as a dog walker, doing an epic scavenger hunt with her dad, and maybe, jus...
