I’ve decided to join A Winter’s Respite Read-a-Thon that’s hosted by The True Book Addict. I’m excited that I’m not in a reading slump and have been reading at quite a good pace this month – so I have great hopes for progress I can make during the read-a-thon! 
A Winter’s Respite is a week long, so if you’re interested in joining us, click on the button on the left and it’ll take you to the sign up page.

Notes From Ghost Town by Kate Ellison Amazon | Goodreads
Tempted by Megan Hart Amazon | Goodreads
The Tale of the Vampire Bride by Rhiannon Frater Amazon | Goodreads
Into the Darkest Corner by Elizabeth Haynes Amazon | Goodreads
Not gonna lie, I’m already partway into Tempted, and loving it! So that’s not like a “fresh” book per se, but I’m not TOO far in, so I’ll still be happy with my progress if I can finish that AND get halfway (or hell even finish another book!) That’d make it my best read-a-thon progress EVER if I did that!
I’m excited to get to the Rhiannon Frater book; I’ve had it on my nook forever and basically forget I even had it. Then I was adding books to my Goodreads shelves that are on my nook and noticed it and also happened to see a review that mentioned it was basically a diary [I LOVE diary type books] and so I knew I had to read this one ASAP. Plus, I’ve heard amazing things about Rhiannon Frater from Kimberly @ The Caffeinated Book Reviewer (she had a whole freaking event dedicated to it! )

Monday Progress
Reading: Tempted by Megan Hart started at 45% [I think, I can't remember if it was 38 or 45ish..] and finished reading for the night [at 6:30ish AM haha] at 74%.
There’s no doubt I’ll be finishing this baby tonight [AKA early today] haha Just a random FYI, I do most of my reading at night/early morning before I go to sleep.

Tuesday Progress
Finished Tempted by Megan Hart! Woohoo!
The best intentions right? Well I’m so stuck on Alex’s story from Tempted that I absolutely HAVE to read the short story that is Tempted from his POV. Then I’m sure I’m going to have to read Naked that follows where Tempted left off. I blame Bex for this. <evil grin> So I probably won’t be getting to the other books I marked for possible reading (above). I’m seriously enthralled with Megan Hart!

Enjoy your reading this week!
Thanks! Glad to be joining! Good luck to you too and much happy reading
You have some great books lined up…Good luck!!
Thanks! I had such a hard time figuring out what I wanted to maybe read for the readathon.. haha still not sure if this will be the definitive “read-next” after I finish Tempted or not
I’m not taking part but good luck!!!
I just finished reading Derailed by Alyssa Rose Ivy
Really quick and cute read. Now reading the companion Veer 
Thanks! I love it when books grab you so hard you have to read the companion!
It wasn’t THAT good but… I got invested in the story AND the companion just happens to feature my favorite character
Oooh, yeah I’ve read books just for a certain character or two before too. At least the story made you invested so it wasn’t just character love
YEaPPP!!!!
Speaking of which, totally random question but…
Have you read Defiance?
I can’t remember the name of the author… But can you place it?? heheh
I think I’ve heard of it, I can’t remember the name of the author either though! I haven’t read it though, but if I’m thinking of the right book it was something that looked interesting!
Hehe I’ve been asking around because I got the -miracle- chance to get it, since a local bookstore brought it-even though it released last year… like August? Sept? idk- but then I saw Carnival Of Souls by Melissa Marr… And bought that one instead… O_O They only brought a copy of Defiance so… Now I’m wondering if I made the right choice or not hehehehe.
Ooh yeah, I recently bought Carnival of Souls too! I haven’t read any of Marr’s books – although I really am looking forward to Cinder at some point as well. I hope Carnival of Souls is as good as it looks! I’d be curious if I made the right choice or not too! Hopefully you did – for both our sakes since I have it to read too!
Cinder?
maybe that’s why I bought CoS!!
And… I’ve read Wicked Lovely by MMarr… but only that one. I loved it though
-crossing my fingers.-
I’m crossing my fingers too that you love CoS! I haven’t read Wicked Lovely yet, it does look very tempting though so I might have to snag it one of these days it’s on sale! Good to know you loved that one!
