January Roundup!

This is the first time I have done a monthy roundup, but I thought that it's a good way to keep track of posts and makes it easier to navigate between them. Plus, it seems fun :)

So, this month has been quite busy in terms of reading as I've read books that I've wanted to for a long, long time. Elenor and Park- of course- was brilliant and I finished Divergent by Veronica Roth at the very start of the month, a book which I'd been desperate to read. Then, I finished the trilogy, which you can read here. All I can say is these books are amazing, but *that ending* was just... hmmmm...

Aaaanyway, I've read 7 books this month, which is probably not on track for my reading target of 100 books this year, but I'm going to carry on either way. I never want to feel like I have to read and to take the fun out of it. These books were:

• Insurgent by Veronica Roth
• A Witch Alone by Ruth Warburton
• Allegiant by Veronica Roth
• City of Bones by Cassandra Clare
• Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell
• The Perks of being a Wallflower
• Tiger Eyes by Judy Blume

I also got nominated for a Leibster award, first by Jenny from jennyinneverland.wordpress.com and another from Sabrina from http://ihavetoreadthat.blogspot.co.uk/ both of which I was so surprised and pleased about, so thank you! You can read them here and here!

I guest review for Jenny each month, and started this month with One Day by David Nicholls, which you can read here.

Then of course, there's Wreck This Blog, which I have been working on this month. You can read more and sign up here- I am so excited about it and there there is still time to sign up! But hurry, as the last sign up date is February 3rd.  

I hope that your January has been good and that February will be even better!

Ambitions for 2014

As we're only a couple of days away from being into 2014, I thought about what I would like to do in this new year. Lately, I haven't been able to blog as frequently as I would like because of my laptop being broken, but that is the first thing I would like to change in the new year.

So, here are the things I want to work hard on in 2014. :)

1. Posting more regularly- I'm going to try to write whenever I can find a laptop to borrow.
2. Also, I'd like to improve my site so that it's easier to access posts and navigate between them. I'm not very good at this but hopefully with some persistence...
3. READ MORE! I am going to aim to read 100 books this year and I'm going to write down each book I finish so I don't forget- at the end of the year- most of the books I have read like I have this year!
4. Go to at least one book event! I haven't been to any yet but I would love to and I think I would enjoy it so, so much. If you've been to any events let me know what it was like. :)
5. This is linked to number 4, but I would really love to meet some bloggers and to speak to more bloggers as everyone so far has been so nice!

Hopefully, I can complete these resolutions!

 

Have a very Happy New Year!!
