October Roundup

12:53 pm 31 October 2015

First off, Happy Halloween! I hope everyone gets to splurge on some candy tonight :)

October was a pretty good month, no five star reads but when I think back on it, it felt like a satisfying month. As my Start a New Series month, I read some pretty good books. I, of course, ran into a series that made me lose my mind and I had to read more than one, Fever by Karen Marie Moning. It was a wild ride and something that probably happens every October as I have no self-control but dang, what a series. I definitely recommend for fantasy/supernatural/romance fans out there.

Links are to my reviews or the book page if I didn't write one and my October - Start a New Series are in italics.

Total - 19

A couple more than last couple months, probably due to the aforementioned craziness with the Fever series and a couple novellas. No really high rated books but more middle of the road, which is better than last months group of 2 stars. ARCs kind of let me down but my Start a New Series selections were pretty great. November reading has some competition!
