Frebruary Wrap Up & March TBR


Hello everyone,

Another month has come to an end. We have consumed two months of the year, already and my beginning in the year has not been the greatest. I have had health issues during both month, that together with my work schedule, which sucks, has not allowed me to move forward in most of my goals. One of my goals is reading 60 books, which I am not so sure I will be able to fulfill; however, I am going to still try it.

Last month I only completed two books. The first one I completed was “Safe Haven” by Nicholas Sparks, a book that captured me and which I loved very much. I was not that lucky with “La Scelta” or “The choice” by the same author. I do not know if it is that my Italian is rusty, which might be, or that the plot was not able to capture me right away, but I was not able to finish it.

35053441The other book I finally finish was “Getting things done” by David Allen. I liked this book and the method he explains and proposes, I liked enough to start implementing it right away as I read the book; however, as I will explain in the review I will be writing about the book, I thought it was at times a little tedious and long, which make it difficult to get through it.








As I finished this book, I wanted a little less “heavy” book for my morning routine, since I practice the miracle morning routine, I have started “Little Black Book” by Othega Uwagba. So far, I like the book, it is a perfect book to keep at hand with some little tips, which are great for any person that works, from home or an office, especially women.







That was all that I read in the last month, as for this month’s TBR I’m planning to get back into finishing and keep up with series.
First, “The golden lily” by Richelle Mead, second book in the “Bloodlines” series, which is a spin-off of the “Vampire Academy” series by the same author. Then, “The son of Neptune” second book in the “Heroes of Olympus” series by Rick Riordan, another spin-off series, this time from the “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” also by Rick Riordan.

Then I want to read the first two volumes from Audrey’s Carlan series “Calendar Girl”, since it seems like one of those series I usually fly by.

After that I want to keep series I started a long time ago. The first being “Red Queen” by Victoria Aveyard. I started the series like two years ago, and this month I want to read the second one in the series, “Glass Sword”. Then I want to wrap up a series, “The Raven Cycle” by Maggie Stiefvater by reading “The Raven King”, the fourth and last book in the series.

Last but not least I want to read “Gemina” by Amy Kauffman and Jay Kristoff, the second book in the “Iluminae” series which I started last year and loved. I pre-ordered the third book on amazon which comes out later this month, so I want to be able to read it first thing next month.

While I try to finish this ambitious TBR, I want to finish “Little Black Book” by Othega Uwagba, as part of my miracle morning and read “El Mundo Amarillo” by Albert Espinosa, an Spanish book from an Spanish author I was recommended to read by my therapist.
Thanks for reading,
