So this Read-A-Thon is hosted by Novel Ink, Latte Nights Reviews, and Lost in Lit. It's all about reading your 2015 releases that you're holding onto into the new year. The Clean Slate Read-A-Thon will run from Sunday, January 10 at 12 AM through Sunday, January 17 at 11:59 PM. So I figured heck why not right? Plus I have a few books on the back burner (surprises all around ^0^)
So My TBR for this read-a-thon will be short and sweet because they're the only books I have from 2015, because let me tell you sister some great books came out last year. (By the way these are e-books so I'm going to use images I've found on the internet ^^! sorry) They are

^-^ I know right? ;3
DeleteI'll Meet You There was one of my favourite books of 2015 - I hope you enjoy it! I'm going to have to check out The Fangirl's Guide to the Galaxy, it sounds like something I'd enjoy.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your reading and your resolutions! :-)
~Marie @ Ramblings of a Daydreamer
^-^ I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Comments like this are helping me try to push on with the read-a-thon. Life is sure trying to get in the way ^^! Thank You <3
DeleteI need to read I'll meet you there as well.
ReplyDeleteA lot of your resolutions are ones I need to try especially not buying any books this year, but I have a feeling that won't happen.
^-^ I know have you feel my temptation levels are on super high levels to buy a bunch of books already. The only thing that is stopping me are books from the library. ;D
DeleteLove your goals, especially donating your books. That means a lot to so many people who can't afford to read books at the price they are at, per se, Barnes & Noble! Good for you <3
ReplyDeleteAwww This comment really warmed my heart <3 Thank you. Yeah books always seem so expensive. ^^! I have to confess I do buy a lot of my books second hand for myself ;D so it's not there too new and shiny. Not on the outside anyways :D
