January 2015 Reading Wrap Up


In the month of January I was able to read 7 young adult novels. I was laughing at myself when I was putting this together because as most of you know I always rant on about how there is a lack of good thrillers/mysteries in YA. This month 4 out of the 7 books I read were classified as mystery and I read them all in a row. But now I have read a majority of the thrillers in my room and I'm on the look out for more so, if you know of any good ones let me know in the comments below. Check out below to see what books I read in January and the ratings I gave them. If I have wrote a review for the book you can access it by clicking on the title. Some of the reviews from books read at the end of the month are still to come later this week.

Top Ten Tuesday: New-To-Me Authors I Read In 2014







Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and Bookish! This weeks topic is our top ten new-to-us authors we read this year. I am showcasing the authors themselves and which of their books introduced me to them. Some are debut authors and others are well known in the YA community and I finally got around to picking up their books this year.
