*I have read the book and I hope that I'll write a review till the next update.
Until the next time,
I think I ought to participate in this next year, my TBR needs some flattening *pokes pile*
OdgovoriIzbrišiKeep up the great work! <33
I'll be participating too! I have read some books that have been on my shelf forever ;) Thanks :)
IzbrišiI SO need to read Melina Marchetta books. I'm trying very hard to get my hands on them as I want to own physical copies of them. You've cleared quite a few books on your pile Tanja. :) Thanks for sharing!
OdgovoriIzbrišiJanhvi @ The Readdicts
You really must read it and I support you in getting your own books. You won't regret it :) Thanks Janhvi :)
IzbrišiI am horrible at writing these updates too, which is why I gave up on challenges altogether. It's not like my schedule leaves me time to read at will anyway.
OdgovoriIzbrišiI hope you'll have at least some luck with Mara Dyer, I know most people didn't. Looking forward to your review.
Yeah I know how it is, but I try to squeeze in as many books as I can. Because I'll never get to read them this way.
IzbrišiI won't say it was a great read to me. I had some issues with it.
Thanks :)
I have soooo many books in my TBR pile, that I really drastically need to read more of them and stop buying new books...Which is probably the hardest challenge.
OdgovoriIzbrišiIt truly is! That's why I joined this challenge. Like Maja said my schedule is not really leaving me much space for the books I want to read :)
IzbrišiI took on so many challenges this year but forgot about all of them, so I'm amazed that you've been keeping up with this so studiously, Tanja! Great work - keep it up!(:
OdgovoriIzbrišiI'm really stubborn person :D Thanks Keertana :)
IzbrišiI really enjoyed On the Jellicoe Road. Great read.
OdgovoriIzbrišiThat's my all time fave read :)
IzbrišiLooks like you are doing well with your reading! Congrats on getting so many read.
OdgovoriIzbrišiThanks Ali :)
IzbrišiI'm excited to see what you think of Mara Dyer Tanja! I loved that one so much, but it's definitely one that inspires conflicting opinions which I think makes things fun. I still really want to read Finnikin of the Rock. I've only read one Marchetta book and that's simply not enough!
OdgovoriIzbrišiSadly I wasn't so fascinated by it. :( You must read the whole series Jenny :)
IzbrišiI am horrible at these challenges so I don't sign up for them. Looks like you've accomplished a lot and the books you've read I either love or want to read. Congrats, Tanja! :)
OdgovoriIzbrišiI really wanted to stick to this one and I'm glad I did :) Thanks Rachel :)
IzbrišiI've tried doing these before but always fail. To much self induced pressure ack! Looks like you've been doing well though.
OdgovoriIzbrišiLOL it's not pressure to me, just a reminder :)
IzbrišiHaha, I bet your memory skills can't beat mine. I procrastinate till I forget, which is the worst! At least you still remembered. :) You've reviewed a couple of books I really liked; I'll check them out right after this. I'm also super excited for your thoughts on MARA DYER. I can't say that I was a huge fan, but I did enjoy the book fairly well, so I hope you did, too.
OdgovoriIzbrišiAnd gah. More FINNIKIN. I've been seeing that book around a lot, lately. Maybe it's a sign that I should stop putting it off and just get to it already!
LOL It's actually nice to hear that someone is wore than me. My memory sucks, like big time! I did enjoy it somehow but some issues weren't to my liking.
IzbrišiYOU SHOULD MEG! You really should :)
Awesome job, Tanja! You're kicking tbr butt! Thanks for the update.
OdgovoriIzbrišiThanks Andrea! I'm proud I must say :)
IzbrišiYou've read some really great books! I can't wait for your review of Mara Dyer, love those books!
OdgovoriIzbrišiIt'll be up soon! I hope so :)
IzbrišiJust had a read of your review of Jellicoe Road - beautiful! Couldn't have said it better myself. ^^
OdgovoriIzbrišiThat was the most challenging review to write. Thank you Ranu :)
IzbrišiI really enjoyed the Unbecoming of Mara Dyer so I can't wait to see what you think. I also really liked You Against Me, but didn't care to much for the Dark Divine. Great post!
OdgovoriIzbrišiJanina @ Synchronized Reading
Yeah Dark Divine was a miss to me too. Thanks Janina :)
IzbrišiYou SHOULD get a reward for being so good about your challenge! I am far too lazy to ever keep up with such things, hah. Good luck with your goal!
OdgovoriIzbrišiWendy @ The Midnight Garden
LOL that would be rewarding ;) Thanks Wendy :)
IzbrišiCongrats on knocking some books off your tbr pile. I refuse to look at my numbers as I add two to three for every book I read..LOL
OdgovoriIzbrišiLOL I do pretty much the same but I try to control it :)
IzbrišiHaha (: Well at least you read and review all the books you say you are going to! I am a whole other story :P
OdgovoriIzbrišiYou should try and do the same :P
IzbrišiIt seems to me like I'm the only one not liking it :D Thanks :)
OdgovoriIzbrišiAwesome! Look at all that Marchetta :-) Congrats on kicking butt on the challenge so far!
OdgovoriIzbrišiIt's easy to accomplish goals if Melina is one the list ;) Thanks :)
IzbrišiGood job!! I've been reading a bit slower these days because of work and school, but I'm trying to get through a lot in my TBR pile too.
OdgovoriIzbrišiMe too, but I had enough free time during summer so I managed to accomplish my goal :)
IzbrišiYou made a good dent in your TBR pile! Congrats :D Mine is pitiful. This month may just be the worst reading month for me EVER. (It's that bad.) *hides in shame*
OdgovoriIzbrišiIt's same for me, only I have read a lot during the summer so it's balanced :D
