July 2013 Reading Wrap Up


Oh my, I've had a blast reading this month! Love it when that happens! Here's what I finished:

Obsidian by  Jennifer L. Armentrout: Katy is the new girl in town, and she has moved right next door to a guy who at once both fascinates her and makes her crazy!

The Name of the Star by Maureen Johnson: Just as Rory arrives at a London boarding school, someone has decided to start recreating the Jack the Ripper murders, complete with all the gory detail.

Edenbrooke by Julianne Donaldson: Marianne spends the summer at the country manor of Edenbrooke and becomes unexpected friends with one of its occupants. (Re-read for me... but I didn't re-review... linked to my original review.)

Descendant by Nichole Giles: Abby comes to a new school and learns that she is not the only Gifted one.

Tiger Lily by Jodi Lynn Anderson: Tinker Bell narrates the story of how Tiger Lily meets Peter Pan and all their lives are forever changed.

Poison Study by Marie V. Synder: Instead of being executed, Yelena is offered the position as the food taster for the Commander, which could be an even worse situation.

Going Vintage by Lindsey Leavitt: After Mallory's boyfriend cheats on her (online) she finds a list made by her grandma in the 60s and she decides to go back to that time by swearing off all technology.

Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys: This is the story of Lina and her family and how they suffer through deportation to Siberia.


My favorites this month? Poison Study and Between Shades of Gray, with Tiger Lily coming in not far behind.

Plans for August: Read Utah books! Stay tuned tomorrow for my detailed plans.

So, how'd things go for you?
