2017 Reading Goal Update

Last year I wrote my reading goal for this year and I have to say I didn't do as well as I expected.

 I wanted to catch up on some of the series I own but mainly wanted to try to get up on the Sherrilyn Kenyon books that I own.  I had 10 that I hadn't read yet and unfortunately, I only read 5.

 I wanted to read Written In My Own Heart Blood (book 8 in the Outlander series) by Diana Gabaldon. I ended up not reading it this year because I decided to wait until closer to the release date of the 9th book in the series (whenever that will be). 

 I wanted to buy fewer books this year and I have bought 24 books this year but most of them were ebooks.  I think I bought less this year than I did last year. 

 My goal was to read 150 books and I have to say that I read 258 books this year. And I have read more of my own personal TBR pile this year.

Immortal Sun by Rachel Van Dyken (Review)

  I MMORTAL SUN Rachel Van Dyken Release Date: March 24 Available in Kindle Unlimited Discover a brand-new world where demons, vampires, fallen angels, gods, and fae roam the earth in modern day Seattle in a gripping romantasy from #1 New York Times bestselling author Rachel Van Dyken. There isn't a lore that doesn't exist around Mt. Olympus, and nobody is safe from the wrath of the immortals who watch. My only goal: Beat him at his own game. His: Save the world and himself. Thousands of people have disappeared from this world by way of his hand and the universe breathes for only one more drop of blood--mine. He promised he would help me find my brother. He lied. I don't know why I immediately trusted Cyrus. He was stunningly gorgeous, nice, and so accommodating that maybe I felt too safe—maybe that was the first red flag. The second was that he always said my missing twin was fine, that he'd come back when he was done traveling and that I should s...

Owning Violet (The Fowler Sisters #1) by Monica Murphy Review And Giveaway

Image
*I received a copy of this book for my honest review* I’ve moved through life doing what’s expected of me. I’m the middle daughter, the dutiful daughter. The one who braved a vicious attack and survived. The one who devoted herself to her family’s business empire. The one who met an ambitious man and fell in love. We were going to run Fleur Cosmetics together, Zachary and I. Until he got a promotion and left me in the dust. Maybe it’s for the best, between his disloyalty and his wandering eye. But another man was waiting for me. Wanting me. He too has an overwhelming thirst for success, just like Zachary—perhaps even more so. He’s also ruthless. And mysterious. I know nothing about Ryder McKay beyond that he makes me feel things I’ve never felt before. One stolen moment, a kiss, a touch . . . and I’m hooked. Ryder’s like a powerful drug, and I’m an addict who doesn’t want to be cured. He tells me his intentions aren’t pure, and I believe him. For once, I don’t care. I’m willing...
