Books read in February and looking forward to March...

Not bad, reading-wise in February with 15 books read. A lot of my time was spent working on posts and things for Love month, so I'm surprised at how many books I did manage! (in January I read 19 books!). Now that my university course has begun, I'll probably find that I have even less time to devote to reading/blogging in the near future. We shall see though.


Looking back

1. A Bad Boy Can Be Good For A Girl by Tanya Lee Stone
2. Kissing Kate by Lauren Myracle

7. My Soul to Save by Rachel Vincent
8. Jessie Hearts NYC by Keris Stainton*

My favourite of the month? Wood Angel by Erin Bow (with very close runners-up for Out of Shadows and Annexed)

Looking forward

My goals for March include catching up on some of my review books, particularly Mortlock by James Mayhew* and Rockoholic by CJ Skuse.* I am currently reading another for-review book, In the Bag by Jim Carrington* and will soon be reading Where She Went by Gayle Forman and The Desires of the Dead by Kimberly Derting. Other books I'd like to attempt in March are as follows:

It's Kind of A Funny Story by Ned Vizzini
A Note of Madness by Tabitha Suzuma*
The Lone-Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven by Sherman Alexie
Pretty Bad Things by CJ Skuse*
Blood Feud by Alyxandra Harvey
Captivate by Carrie Jones
Zel by Donna Jo Napoli
The Iron Witch by Karen Mahoney*
How Not To Be Popular by Jennifer Ziegler
Breathing Underwater by Julia Green*
