Once Upon A Read-A-Thon The End

I'm really sorry that I haven't posted my wrap-up sooner. My Internet has been done. I thought it would never come back on.

Books I finished:
Pretty Little Liars  #1

526 Pages

I know its not a lot at all. I got really busy. Stuff kept popping up. I read as much as I could. I'm hoping the next read-a-thon I can at least double it! I hope everyone has a blast! I know I did!

Mini-Challenge #2

I did complete one book yesterday and half of another. So I'm very proud of myself.
I decided to participate in YA Bliss's mini challenge.
Her challenge is to choose your three favorite love-triangles.
To me this challenge is pretty dang tough. I usually always go for the bad boy in the books.
My choices:
1. Personal Demons- Gabriel vs. Luc
    - Even though I didn't like this book very much, I still haven't decided who I want Frannie to be with.
2. Blood and Chocolate- Aiden vs. Gabriel
3. And of course, The Twilight Saga Complete Collection- Edward vs. Jacob

Review: Twisted (Fearless #4)

Twisted (Fearless)

This was the first book I'd decided to read for the Read-A-Thon. I just finished it a few minutes ago. I don't think I've stuck to reading like that in years. I think I'm getting to old for this. lol
Anyways...it's been years since I've read the first three books in the Fearless's series. Don't get me wrong, they aren't bad book at all. I love these books. It's just that they are hard to find these days. The our out-of-pub. I have to get them from private owners. So shipping is a kick in my ass.
Every book in the Fearless series is great so far. Every page is filled with suspense and mystery. I have to keep reading to find out what happens next. I didn't even want to take breaks today, but I did. I get awful headaches if I read too long. Even with these headaches I'm pushing through this read-a-thon.


Contains Spoilers after is point....

Unfortunately I figured out that David was the killer pretty dang early. Maybe it's because I want Sam and Gaia together. Who the hell knows? But I feel so sorry for Ed, him being in a wheel chair and all. If not really that he is in a wheel chair that makes me feel sorry him, it's the fact that he is chasing after a girl that he knows doesn't feel the same. I guess that's just humans. Going after something they love, no matter the heartbreak later. I hope she brings in a character for him. I like Ed. He is sweet and kind. A guy any girl would dream to have.
If Sam really loved Gaia, he wouldn't be sleeping with Heather. I want Sam and Gaia together, but then again I don't. I feel like he doesn't care for her enough. He is only with Heather because he feels same and she's hot. I just get the feeling that he is very shallow. I hope he changes soon, or I'm going to want another love partnerfor Gaia.


Update on Progress:
Finished Gaia: Check!
Started on second book: Right after I get off of here. I think I'm going to read the first book in the Pretty Little Liars.

Well I'm off!

Happy Reading to All! 

Mini-Challenge #1

Hey guy. I decided to participate in IB Book Blogging's mini-challenge. It struck my interest when I noticed the theme was Mythology. I love Mythology. The book that I'm reading for the Read-A-Thon has a little of mythology in it.

Question 1.
What is your favorite type of mythology?
    Well my all-time-favorite would probably have to be Greek, but I also love Roman too.
Question 2.
What is your favorite book with some type of mythology in it?
     That's easy. It's the Daughters of the Moon Complete Series 13 Books (Volume 1-13). I loved them. I read them a couple of years ago and they fascinated me!


Update on Progress:
  I'm half way through my first book. I'm hurrying as fast as I can.

Once Upon A Read-A-Thon







Once Upon a Read-A-Thon last from July 11-July 13. I didn't start last night because I was really sick. I got up early this morning and read the last couple of page in Vampire Academy. I'm not counting that book in this challenge because I started it awhile ago. I will review that book shortly.
I'm not quite sure what books I'm going to read in this challenge. I have so many on my TBR pile. I'll try to update after each book. I'm sure I'm not going to get through a lot. I've had stuff randomly popping up that I have to do. Ah well I'll try my best and keep ya updated!


+Update+ If you really want to know what I'm reading then check out my Goodreads. It will be the most updated. I've decided to read Twisted (Fearless #4).
Good luck to everyone!
