How in the world is it February already? SERIOUSLY.
Anyway, I almost wasn’t going to do the first part of this blog post in which I go back and see how I did on finishing the books on last month’s Reading List, but I’ve decided not to have shame in my game.
Nope.
I will, instead, accept that I am a failure. (She says before she even looks back on the list she made last month).
Alright, let’s see how she did, folks! (/end writing in third person. Sorry.)

Next are the books I did read that weren’t on the list above BECAUSE I CANNOT BE TAMED!

(Reviews coming soon. My review schedule is cray-cray)

February Reading List
These are all books that I own and need to read!
Audio
Dreams of Gods and Monsters by Laini Taylor
Since I’m in the Fantasy mood right now, I figure it’s pretty safe to throw this on my TBR list for this month. It’s the last book in the series and I really have loved the other two so far.

Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor
I’ve heard such great things about this book and, like I mentioned above, I love the Smoke and Bone series, so I figure I’ll keep on going while I’m on the Fantasy roll!
Goodreads | Amazon
Six of Crows (Six of Crows #1) by Leigh Bardugo
This is another series that has been on my radar for awhile, and actually, this book has been sitting in my Audible library for longer than I’d like to admit. I think it’s within the theme I’ve started for February so far with audiobooks!

Kindle
Until It Fades by K.A. Tucker
This book was recommended to me by my sister awhile ago. It sounded really interesting, so I can’t wait to read it!
Goodreads | Amazon
Hard Copy
A Bargain in Silver (Solis Invicti #1) by Josie Jaffrey
This is a Reader’s Copy that I received in the mail recently. My first hard copy of one! I’ve already started reading this one and I’m enjoying it so far!
Goodreads | Amazon
Passenger and Wayfarer (The Passenger Series) by Alexandra Bracken
I bought these two books from the Books-a-Million sale and was so excited to have found them since I’ve been eyeing this series for a long time, now. The covers are gorgeous and look lovely sitting on my bookshelf.

All the Laini Taylor books were amazing to me 😍 I hope you enjoy them!

I’ve heard so many great things about it, too. I’m only a few chapters in, but it’s really good so far!

That is why I almost never make a TBR, haha. I never manage to stick to it. I read 16 books last month and mostly review books (I got accepted for more than I ever expected). This month I have a couple of books planned, but I like to see where the month will take me.
Six of Crows is so good!! I hope you enjoy it.

Thanks! Yes, totally understandable! I think I ultimately decided to use it more as a guide than a hard and fast To-Do list LOL!

lol – sorry to see the co-wrecker didn’t do it for you. I have to admit it was the ONLY book by Meghan Quinn that did it for me, her other books are too rom-com for me. Love seeing Six of Crows on your February tbr – I’m in the middle of book 2 and the character and world building is fabulous!!!! No wonder it’s so popular!!

Oh, man that makes me excited!
And boo about Meghan Quinn… I have a feeling, after reading part of Co-Wrecker, that I probably won’t like her style. Wallbanger was kind of the same for me (different author).

Lol – Wallbanger didn’t do it for me either until I started listening to the audiobooks. 😳 I accepted that there are some authors that just don’t do it for me. 🤷🏻♀️
