#SixforSunday: Five Star TBR Reads

#SixforSunday is a fun weekly meme created by Steph at alittlebutalot and you can find the prompts for April, May, and June here.

Okay, so I found this meme by accident and thought it sounded like fun.  Also, a way to maybe try and post more?  Heck, it can’t hurt, right?

[Blogtober] Three Books I Meant to Read Last Year

…and flopped at.  Hah!

Although I’m going to tweak this just a tiny bit and change it to books I should have finished last year but didn’t.

And I Darken by Kiersten White.  I was really into this and then received a review book or something from Netgalley or saw something shiny… who knows why I stopped, but I did.

The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss.  I have started and stopped this monster book a thousand times.  However, I have made progress – I’m finally at the 60% mark!

Raven Black by Ann Cleeves.  An online book group I belong to LOVES Ann Cleeves so I picked this up to read so I could join in with their adulation of the author.  Trouble is, it’s a huge paperback and… my hands hurt after only a few minutes of holding a print book.  I need this to go on sale for the Kindle.  Stat.

So, this is my tale of woe.  What does yours look like?

[Blogtober] Witchy YA

Normally, I don’t read a lot of young adult fiction, but this is a subject I can get into fully.

[Blogtober] Most Anticipated October Releases

This is tough because I’m never up on new releases.  Like, ever.  Why?  Because I have this ginormous backlog of books I haven’t read yet, so looking at upcoming releases only gets me into more trouble.  That said, here are a few that I’m looking forward to not being able to buy for the next seven years:

[Blogtober] Spooky TBR

Okay, so I’ve never participated in Blogtober before, but I’m going to give it a shot thanks to Kathy @ Books & Munches.  She helpfully posted a link to the blogging topics at Anniek’s Library.  Now, the challenge is to keep up.  Hah!

Avid August Wrap Up

I know, I never actually made a post for Avid August hosted by Books & Munches, but I’m going to post my resutls all the same.  I need to get into the habit of doing more with this poor, neglected blog.

Fantastic February Wrap-Up & Monstrous March TBR!

Wow, can you believe it’s almost March already?  Yikes.

February’s challenge was fantasy or paranormal reads which I thought would be right up my alley.  Yeah, well, while I did much better than I did in January, I still didn’t do very good.

January Update, Book Haul, and February Outlook

First things first: how did I do with my January Jam Jar challenge?

Weekly Update

Things have gotten a little nuts here at home lately and I haven’t been able to keep up with the weekly memes.  I’m hoping to get back into the swing of things soon.  *crosses fingers*

February Challenge: Fantastic February

Although I’m failing most epically in the January Jam Jar Challenge, I’m all in for Kathy @ Books and Munches February challenge.  February means fantasy and paranormal and that sounds perfect to me!  You can see all the details here.
