What I’ve been reading:Â
January has been a great reading month for me! I read 14 (well technically I will finish my 14th tonight) books in all- 2 were audios, 2 were re-reads, and 2 DNFs. My TBR switched up some from my post at the beginning of the month, I felt I had way too much fantasy going on so I switched some out for some contemporaries!
Most of the books I read this month I really enjoyed, and I even obsessed over a few…ahem, TGFE!Â
- Front Lines by Michael Grant
- (AUDIO) Harry Potter and the Sorcer’s Stone by J.K. Rowling (Narrated by Jim Dale)
- Take the Fall by Emily Hainsworth
- Since You’ve Been Gone by Morgan Matson
- (AUDIO) Shadow Kiss by Richelle Mead (Narrated by Khristine Hvam)
- Symptoms of Being Human by Jeff Garvin
- The Girl From Everywhere by Heidi Heilig
- Titans by Victoria Scott
- Revenge and the Wild by Michelle Modesto (This is the one I’m still technically reading, but will finish tonight! I’m over halfway through it and just enjoying it SO much!)
- The Truth by Jeffry W. Johnston
- Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins
- Isla and the Happily Ever After After by Stephanie Perkins
- The Word for Yes by Claire Needell

What I’ve been watching:Â
Nashville-Â I started this show on a whim on Hulu after finishing up my watch of Friday Night Lights because I loved Connie Britton so much. Well I’m loving this show just as much as I love FNL! It is seriously SOOOO good!
New Girl-Â Most of you know I’m a huge fan of this show and S4 finally hit Netflix so I binged that season in 2 days and then five straight into S5 (which is on air now). And OMG I think S4 was AMAZINGGGGGGG! I was bawling like a baby watching the finale. So so good!
Have you read any of these? Or watch these shows?Â
Isn’t Nashville awesome! I so love the soapy feel to this series. And the music ain’t half bad either!
It is SOOOOOOOO good! I’m so excited to be caught up and watch when it comes back next month!
You did so well with all your reading this month! I am starting TGFE today and you’ve made me 2000 times more excited to get to it. I hope February has just as many great reads as January!
Thank you! And I seriously love TGFE so much! Let me know how it goes for you!
I haven’t watched those shows and haven’t read any of those books (except HP) but I really really want to read TGFE. Look like you’re doing great on your reading challenges so far, so kudos for that! I’m looking forward to reading your upcoming reviews/posts so HAPPY READING & HAPPY FEBRUARY!
You should definitely watch both shows! So much love for them! I can’t wait for you to read TGFE! Can’t say enough good stuff about it! And thank you!
