Summer Wrap-Up Readathon! 4th August to 12th August 2012

 Summer Wrap-Up Read-a-Thon  

This Readathon is hosted by Jennifer at Some Like It Paranormal  and Jude at In Between!

Details-
It will take place August 4th-August 12th. It will provide some motivation to finish up all the reading you were hoping to get done over the summer. You can read whatever you want and as much or little as you want. If you can only participate during a few days of the read-a-thon that is okay too.
Aim
Going on my last readathon I am aiming for six books!
I think this is a more realistic goal than last time :)
Books
This time I'm attempting slightly bigger books seeing as this is a longer readathon and the aim is to *finish* up planned summer reading so I've included a couple of my anticipated summer reads.
  1. Divergent by Veronica Roth
  2. Starcrossed by Josephine  Angelini
  3. Across the Universe by Beth Revis
  4. Delirium by Lauren Oliver
  5. Someone Else's Life by Katie Dale
  6. Aces Up by Lauren Barnholdt

Two days to go!
Let me know if you're taking part and what you plan on reading!

Much Love!

Monday Round Up!



One of my favourite memes hosted by the lovely Shelia over at Book Journey!

Crazy hectic week- full of 21st parties, surprise work, goodbye drinks,  visiting injured friends and driving around the countryside! Which means I had less time to blog as these events were all pretty spontaneous. This is a rushed post purely as I'm leaving for Graduation in half an hour!!

Reviews Posted
If I Stay and Where She Went by Gayle Forman- two amazing books!
Other posts
Stacking the Shelves- Find out what I picked up this week!

Follow me through my Readathon journey!

Loved all of these- great reading week although it tapered off after the readathon.


Reading and To Be Read


Heading back for Graduation week and taking these with me so depends on which one I pick up first :)
I'm thinking Someone Else's Life!

Upcoming Reviews
To be Rewritten (still) due to random busy week!
- Matched by Ally Condie
- Mockingjay/Hunger Games Review- eaten by Blogger so being rewritten grrr!!
- I Heart Lindsey Kelk- basically an overview of Lindsey Kelk's fabulous books. Also eaten by Blogger!


Upcoming Posts
Series Vs Stand Alones- The biggest casualty of blogger eating posts! I am furiously rewriting this one :(
I will also be putting together my bookcase so maybe a bookcase post??
Signed up for another Readathon so I'll be posting my top ten books for that!


Let me know what you've been up to blog wise this week and your plans!
Much Love

Stacking The Shelves!

STSmall
What is Stacking The Shelves all about?
 Stacking The Shelves is hosted by Tynga all about sharing the books you are adding to your shelves, may it be physical or virtual. This means you can include books you buy in physical store or online, books you borrow from friends or the library, review books, gifts and of course ebooks!

Picked up a few books this week and I stumbled across this meme! Such a good idea :)

Brought

I brought this with a Waterstones gift card!
It's been all over Goodreads and blogs and it sounds awesome!

Borrowed

Across The Universe by Beth Revis- Finally picked this one up from the library :)
Someone Else's Life by Katie Dale- This one kept being recommended to me by Amazon so I took their advice!
Delirium by Lauren Oliver- Tracked this one down finally and I think I'm going to keep it until my next readathon! I still find the cover a little weird though..

Previewed

I'm on a self imposed Amazon ban so I've been taking advantage of Kindle preview!
In Honour by Jessi Kirby- Loved the bit I read- will be buying it soon!
All That Matters by Kels Barnholdt- Haven't read this one yet!

Let me know what you've brought/borrowed/previewed!
Much Love!
