November 2013

This month marks the return of my monthly wrap-up videos! As always, I'll be sharing my favorite reads from November, what I'm planning on reading next and whatever other thoughts happen to come to mind. (I'll also be including these things below in case you want to read, instead of watching the video.)

  1. Ahh Crash into You is so amazing. I was actually surprised that it was my favorite in the series (although Ryan is my favorite...). And I'm glad to see you liked These Broken Stars - I need to read that! And you have to let me know what you think of Cress!

    1. So, I read Cress fairly recently and it was STELLAR. I loved it so, so much! It's definitely my favorite of the series now. I enjoyed Crash Into You too, but still, nothing beats Dare You To (in my humble opinion!).

  2. Omg I loved the Host so hard! One of my all time favorites! I also loved Crash Into You and can't wait to read Cress. I started it ages ago but had to put it aside for life stuff >.< Sorry I can't watch the video I just formatted and I haven't installed Flash yet so all I see is a grey box lol

    1. I loved The Host too! It certainly surprised me, in the best way, and I love that. I need to give books a chance sometimes and not be so silly and prejudiced.

  3. CRESS and HEARTBEAT are on my list, too!

    1. I absolutely LOVED House of Hades. Then again, I'm in awe of Rick Riordan and think all his books are pretty darn fantastic ;)

    1. After having read Cress, I would have to agree -- it's going to be the BEST book of the year, or at least one of them! I just LOVED it.
