My 'To Read' Stash

Wow- I haven't written a book post in a while. Note to self: write more book posts! I have a confession- I have not read a book for fun in over a month! I have just not had any time, and my 'to read' pile has really been stacking up! These are the books that I have been meaning to read:

1. The Hobbit
I know, I have fallen for the craze. I just wanted to read this and see what all the hype was about. However, it is a very hard read considering it is meant for children(I have already read the first chapter!)

2. The Kill Order
I finished reading the Maze Runner series about six months ago now, and when I found out that the prequel, the Kill Order was being released, I got so excited. This is a Must-Read!

3. The Knife Of Never Letting Go
This books sounds very interesting(google it!), especially as I love dystopian novels! I am really excited to read this!

4. Atonement
I found this book on my sister's bookshelf, and immediately filed it away as a 'to read' book. I have wanted to watch the film for a while, too.

5. Finnikin Of The Rock
I bought this book ages ago after reading some really good reviews on it, and I still haven't read it(oops). I am looking forward to it, I need to read more fantasy novels.

5. Long After Midnight At The Nino Bien
I bought this book on a whim, and am yet to read it, but it looks interesting. I think that this is a romance book? I haven't read one of them in a while!

6. Is It Just Me?
What more can I say than Miranda Hart?

7. Occupied City
I only just found out that this book is actually part of a trilogy(Toyko Trilogy, and it is book number 2! I will be reading this as soon as I look up the synopsis of book one! It is all about the world ending in Tokyo, which Sounds interesting.

What books are you going to be reading soon?

The Never Ending Book List

I think that I read as much as I write, or probably even more than I write, which is crazy. I love reading new books, especially young adult ones. S is it really a surprise that I read a number of book blogs? My favourite definitely has to be YA Crush, I love that blog! They're so funny too, go check them out! And through a process of reading their reviews and wanting more, hearing everyone rave on about certain books, and getting books recommended to me, I have accumulated a pretty large book list.

These are the books which I want to buy. Oh no, reading them alone is simply not enough. I like to re-read books. Some people think its weird, other people don't, but it doesn't change the fact that I do it. By his is exactly why I much prefer to own a book rather than just borrow it from the library, especially if the book has been recommended by so many people, and I'm sure that I'll love it.
