March 2023 TBR

I know I didn’t stick as well to my TBR last month as I wished I had, but I did actually finish some books, one of which was a review copy I’d had for a long time. So for that, I am proud. This month starts my new work contract meaning I will be driving a lot for the next couple of weeks, meaning time for audiobooks. So I re-downloaded Audible on to my phone and am going to focus on finishing books on there as well as some other goals. I really want to stay away from purchasing books and read from the Library or Kindle Unlimited or what I already own, which I did not buy any books last month so that at least is a plus! This month, we shall see since I’ll have income again. I also need to finish some of the books that I started last month, so let’s see what I want to work on in March!

January 2023 TBR

I have a few different goals this year for my reading. My first goal is I joined a reading challenge on Goodreads for a different genre each month of the year. Something else I would like to do would be to read older ARCs that I had been approved for and never read. I’d also like to read some more graphic novels, because I think I would like to watch more anime. The final challenge of the year for myself is my best friend Cheyenne and I are going to try and buddy read some things this year, to help motivate the other to continue to read. So keeping that in mind, here is my January 2023 TBR!

Chelsea’s August TBR

Let’s be honest. I’ve had a pretty rough year when it comes to anything that isn’t work or kpop related. I spend a majority of my time involved in those two things and the rest of my time sleeping, if I get good sleep as it is. So I’m deciding since we’re more than halfway through this crazy year I’m going to try to focus more on all the things I used to love to do. That means reading, and blogging, and hopefully even more things. So to start I’m going to give myself a TBR for the month of August. I’m not sure of any readathons happening, so what I’ve decided is I will give myself a couple of ARCs I have sitting around as well as maybe a couple re-reads or some books I know that I really had wanted to get in to before I just stopped reading. This way I don’t have a lot of pressure, and I still have some sort of goal to reach! I’ll probably be flooding you with posts here over the next couple of days, so let’s get right to my books!

Books in Progress

Wicked Fox (Gumiho #1) by Kat Cho
I am currently on page 247 and that puts me at 57%! I started this on audiobook while driving home from Atlanta with Chelsea on Wednesday (07.31.19) and I am due to finish this since she did and rated it high.

Sorcery of Thrones by Magaret Rogerson
This is an audiobook that I started one night after I finished Lady Midnight last month and made a decent sized dent in it, I just never finished it. I really look forward to finishing it.

Siren’s Fury (Storm Siren #2) by Mary Webber
I finished the first book in the fall of last year and I was so ready to dive right into the next book but, I didn’t until a couple months ago. Now is the time to read it and finish it before moving on to other books sitting on my shelves.

Other Books

Enchantée (#1) by Gina Trelease

The Reading Rush TBR

Challenge One
Read a book with purple on the cover

Sadie by Courtney Summers

Challenge Three
A book you meant to read last year
Three Side of a Heart

Challenge Four
Read an author’s first book

Challenge Five
Read a book with a non-human main character

Challenge Six
Pick a book with five or more words in the title
Give the Dark My Love by Beth Revis

Challenge Seven
Read and watch a book to movie adaptation
Between Shades of Grey by Ruta Sepetys

As always, there is the added challenge of reading seven books. Like I said earlier, I am going to be away from my books from Tuesday and Wednesday but I plan to get a lot of reading done Sunday and then when I return Thursday!

Will you be joining The Reading Rush? If so, what challenge do you think will be the hardest to complete?
