Hey everyone! So Thursdays on the blog I am going to post a new tag. I think tags are so much fun, and I enjoy the time to reflect on what I’ve read in the past, or what I want to read. Images come from Goodreads. I grabbed the questions from this blog
1. An author you’d like to read (that you’ve never read before).
Leigh Bardugo! I have heard such great things about the Grisha verse, so I want to see if it lives up to all the hype. I have a feeling it will, and I am intrigued by the world. I got the first three books in the series as one large Ebook , so I’m going to start that next month. I can’t wait to go on the journey and be immersed in a new series!
2. A book you’d like to read.
Romanov by Nadine Brandes
I love Anastasia and the Romanov family. This looks like such a fantastic retelling. I am drawn in just reading the blurb on Goodreads.
3. A classic you’d like to read.
A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett. I’ve had the Barnes and Nobel edition of this book sitting on my shelf for a while, and this is the year I would like to read it! I have heard a few songs from the musical if I remember correctly, and from what I remember I enjoyed them. I just looked up a summary of this book, and I can’t believe it took me thing long to read this book. Just from the description, this has the potential to be one of my favorite classics.
4. A book you’d like to re-read.
Tash Hearts Tolstoy by Kathryn Ormsbee. This was my favorite book of 2017! It’s been a year since I’ve read it, and I have a feeling that it could be another fun summer read for me. I loved Tash, and I need to revisit this story this year.
5. A book you’ve had for ages and want to read.
Renegades by Marissa Meyer. I’ve had the book for over a year, and from the description, it seems like it’s right up my alley. Superheroes?! Yes, please! I would also like to read the sequel. This will be my first Marissa Meyer book.
6. A big book you’d like to read.
So, once I finish War & Peace, I would like to read Anna Karenina. I enjoyed the movie a few years back, but I would love to read the book that started the story as well .
7. An author you’ve previously read and want to read more of.
Ashley Poston! I have two of her books on pre-order, and I have Geekerella already! I loved Heart of Iron so much that I want to read everything by her.
8. A book you got for Christmas and would like to read.
I love a retelling and I love The Nutcracker. This seems like such a magical book.
9. A series you want to read from start to finish.
I am a one big series a year type of person so I would love to read the entirety of The Grisha Verse. This includes the book coming out in a few weeks.
10. A series you want to finish that you’ve already started.
I don’t know? I’m not sure if Heart of Iron is only a Duology or not, but I am going to read the next installment this summer.
11. Do you set reading goals? If so, how many books do you want to read in 2019?
I set a goal of 30 books this year. I am less busy than I used to be, post graduation so I don’t have school anymore. I do have freelancing that takes sometimes, and I also have other things that get in the way. I used to do 20 books, but when I read 27 books last year, I wanted to up it by 10 books this year.
12. Any other reading goals?
Yes! As many people probably say, I would like to get my physical tbr down. Also, as I said in my 2019 goals post, I would like to review 15 of the 30 books that I read this year for my blog here.
