June Wrap Up

_________________________________. . .Dreams.. Nightmares.. Realities.. .


June has been a great month for me, not only because it's been the start of summer but because I've read some fabulous books, finished my first blogoversary celebration week and got started on my first job freelancing for a UK publishing company, which is very exciting. I can't wait for the end of July then because then I'll be on school holidays =)

Tempest Rising by Tracey Deebs (review coming soon)
The Rouge's Princess by Eve Edwards (reviewing coming soon)

April 2011 Wrap Up



April was a brilliant reading month for me because it was the Easter holidays and I got lots of books read (10). I also got lots of lovely books for my birthday and a Kindle! Click on the links for the books to see my review (some haven't been reviewed yet.)

Books I read this month (random order)


Anastasia's Secret

Montacute House by Lucy Jago

Montacute House

Prisoners In The Palace by Michaela Mcoll

Prisoners in the Palace

My Story Diary: Anastasia by Carolyn Meyer

Anastasia: The Last Grand Duchess, Russia, 1914 (The Royal Diaries)


Princess of the Midnight Ball

Prisoner Of The Inquisition by Theresa Breslin

Prisoner of the Inquisition

Jane Austen: A Life Revealed by Catherine Reef

Jane Austen: A Life Revealed


The Bride's Farewell


Chime


Sigrun's Secret



Did Not Finish

The Opposite Of Amber by Gillian Phillips

The Opposite of Amber

There was nothing bad about this book but I just couldn't seem to get into it because I wasn't connecting with the characters very well and the story didn't hold my interest. I've heard some good things about it from other bloggers so I wouldn't write it off just because of my experience of it.

Currently Reading:

Waterfall by Lisa T Bergen



Happy reading for May!

March 2011 Wrap Up

Pretty spring/ March picture of Big Ben

I've decided to start doing monthly wrap ups with the links to all my posts of the month so you can check out any you might have missed.

I'm disappointed that I only read four books in March because I read a lot more in January and February. However, two were longer than what I'd normally read and I've been busier with school so I think I'll let myself off. I'm planning to read a lot more in April though because of the Easter holidays!

Books Read

Dark Mirror by J.M Putney
Delirium by Lauren Oliver


Books Reviewed (some were read last month)
