We are through an entire month of 2017 already, how did that happen and where did January go? This year is just going to fly.
My numbers are down but I did okay considering the month we had, and school holidays. I would love to hope things got a little less hectic in February but I won’t be holding my breath.
In December I recorded my desire to get one book off my bought wishlist read a month and I managed to do that this month so that’s off to a good start. Not sure I will get one this month because my last Harlequin package was EXCITING!!!
I added a new category in my list this month to show how many of my reads are for the book club because that does sometimes have an impact on what I am reading.
Total Books I read in January: 6
5 Female authors/ 1 Male author
6 Fiction novels
6 print/ 0 digital
Books in a series: 2
5 stars on Goodreads: 3
4 stars on Goodreads: 3
Books that qualify for AWW2017: 1
Books for B&L Book Club: 5
No digital reads in January may have had an effect on my numbers but there wasn’t an opportunity to get one in, though there was one released that I was looking forward to so perhaps I will try and get that in for February.
6 books and they were all 4 and 5 star reads so picking a favourite and a least favourite is not easy, so I’m not going to do it. They were all solid reads.
Book Club reads this month were quite a mixed bag and the reviews coming in have been positive.
Anticipated reads for February are all eclipsed by Long Way Home that I have been waiting on for a very long time. I would love to hang the pile and let it queue jump but there are a couple of February book club titles that I must read first.
Only a brief wrap up this month because first week back at school has me exhausted, and I just want to be reading.
What have you read and loved this month?

I devour books, vampires and supernatural creatures are my genre of choice but over the past couple of years, I have broadened my horizons considerably. In a nutshell – I love to write! I love interacting with a diverse range of artists to bring you interviews. Perhaps we were perfect before – I LOVE WORDS!
