This week I managed to finish 4 books. All of my reviews are up on Goodreads already but I haven’t shared all of them on here yet but they will be coming soon. I will leave the links to my Goodreads if you want to see what I think of each book. The first book I finished this week was A Study in Scarlet by Arthur Conan Doyle. This was the first book we read for the #CatchUpOnClassics read-a-longs and I enjoyed this way more than I thought I would. The next book I finished was Pet Sematary by Stephen King. Every month I read a Stephen King book as part of the Stephen King read-a-long that I participate in. We read this over 2 weeks and had discussions about it. For me personally I really liked it. King is still very wordy but I found this one easier to read. A Study in Charlotte by Brittany Cavallaro was the bonus book this month for #CatchUpOnClassics. Unfortunately I didn’t enjoy this one as much as I did the original one. Last up I finished The Sun Is Also a Star by Nicola Yoon it was my 3rd #JanJamJar pick. At first I was struggling to get into it but then it hooked me and I ended up enjoying it.
I am only currently reading 1 book right now and that is Rhythm, Chord & Malykhin by Mariana Zapata. I am reading this for #Romanaceopoly I have to admit that I was a little worried going into this but as of right now I am 25% through it and I am enjoying it. It has had me laughing out loud several times.
My next #JanJamJar pick was The Cruel Prince by Holly Black. I’ve been wanting to read this for so long so I am glad it was the book that got drawn. This weekend is the 24in48 read-a-thon as well as the dayathon that Lili and Nori host every month. This month both of these read-a-thons fall on the same day so I am doing both of them. Me and Lili will be buddy reading The Darkest Minds another book I’ve been meaning to get to for a while and my next #Romanceopoply book is Corrupt by Penelope Douglas so I will be working on those during the read-a-thons.
Credit as always to The Book Date. Have you read any of the books I mentioned? What did you think of them if you have? What have you been reading lately? What are your reading plans for the week?
Wow you go girl!

I’m currently reading Tiger Lily by Jodi Lynn Anderson. The only book I’ve read is The Sun Is Also A Star and I really enjoyed it when I read it. I also think the theme of the book is extremely relevant.

Tiger Lily is actually a book I have on my TBR to read eventually. I agree about the theme of The Sun Is Also A Star being relevant.

Maybe I should have read it right after reading the original. I liked it enough to want to continue the series at some point. I’m a little over 100 pages into the Cruel Prince right now and so far I’m liking it.
