Well, Christmas has come and gone and as I head into the last week of the year, hope to get a lot more reading done this week than I did last. I plan on participating in a New Years readathon, since I cannot think of a better way to bring in the New Year than that. While last week was still a bit slow what with last minute Christmas shopping and wrapping, visiting my grandchildren, and my father I still managed to finish a couple of books and reviews.
Books Read:
I love this series and when I got this in the mail this week, I couldn't help but pick it up to find out what happened next. I was not disappointed. Fantastic series!
This was a very quick read, well written, and the perfect read on a snowy afternoon. Makes me glad I do not live in New England where a nor'easter could actually occur.

Oh the Tempestuous. I've been wanting to get the wondrous strange books. :D
What I'm reading this week
Wow high praise for Revolution, I'll definitely be checking that one out! I'm off to sticky beak at the challenges you're participating in :)
Have a great week and hope you get lots of reading done!
Tempestuous has such a lovely cover, and so does Trapped (lovely in a scary way!).
Hope you enjoy your reading. Thanks for visiting my blog.
I think I'll check out that Readathon. I just found out I don't have to babysit on New Year's Eve!
I'm glad to see you liked Trapped, Jan! I reviewed it today on my site and, unfortunately, really didn't connect with the story. To each his own though, right? :)
Trapped sounds really interesting. We are in for a large snow storm at the end of this week... sounds like the perfect read :)
Trapped sounds like the perfect book for me to read what with this weather we've been having for the last month! :)
Sounds like a great selection of books for you this week!
I really want to read the Lesley Livingston series, they seem like fabulous books! Can't wait for your review of Revolution, I've got that one on my list as well:)
I'm glad you hear you're loving Revolution! I can't wait to read that one. Happy reading!
I read Wondrous Strange but haven't gotten my hands on the others. One of those series I didn't care so much about or something.
I keep hearing that Revolution is amazing! It makes me want it BAD!
I've also heard good things about Trapped.
Some great books!
My What are you reading is here: http://www.candacesbookblog.com/2010/12/its-monday-what-are-you-reading-19.html
I loved Wondrous Strange and I can't wait to read Tempestuous, but I still have to read Darklight! I've also heard a lot of wonderful things about Revolution, and a lot of people have been nominating it as one of the best reads of 2010 in my Readers' Choice Awards. It's definitely at the top of my TBR list now!
I am eager to see the cover of your currently reading books. But I'll search it in Goodreads.
Happy reading Jan
I love this series too....excited about that one big time! I can't think of a better way to ring in the New Year either!
You have me curious about Revolution! Glad to hear you're enjoying it so far. Happy reading :)
Love the cover for Tempestuous, I need to read that series I think :)
Hope you have a great week! I didn't know there was going to be a readathon on New Years, but that does sound fantastic...I think that'll be my plan too!
You are so far ahead of me on the reading challenges! I've been trying to decide which ones to join for weeks now and I'm so indecisive it's just ridiculous. Hopefully I'll pin it down in the the next day or two. LOL
So glad you had a happy holiday! Thank you so much for all the well wishes and comments. It really means a lot to me.
Have a fabulous reading week and I'll see you around! :o)
I just started Tempestuous today and its got me hooked already. Can't wait to find out how it all ends. Hope you get some more reading done with the holidays.
Trapped sounds very interesting. I lived in New England, but am glad I'm living in the South now!
I've ordered Revolution by Jennifer Donelly, I hope you're ejoying this book !! I can't wait to receive it ! I'm also looking forward to read Tempestuous (I love the Wondrous Strange's series) !! Happy reading !!
