Monthly Reads Wrap Up 2010

December 2010 Wrap Up

January 3, 2011 by Darlene


I think I did pretty good with getting some books read in December although I still didn’t manage to meet my goal of 100 books. Close but not quite. So, here’s the list for December…

  1. Outside the Ordinary World by Dori Ostermiller (400 pages)
  2. Pretty Little Liars #6 – Killer by Sara Shepard (352 pages)
  3. Dreamfever by Karen Marie Moning (512 pages)
  4. Crank by Ellen Hopkins (544 pages)
  5. Glass by Ellen Hopkins (704 pages)
  6. Dining with Joy by Rachel Hauck (320 pages)
  7. The King’s Daughter by Christie Dickason (480 pages)
  8. Cream Puff Murder by Joanne Fluke (304 pages)
  9. Christmas Letters by Debbie Macomber (269 pages)
  10. Dating Mr. December by Phillipa Ashley (304 pages)
  11. Beach Roses by Jean Stone (336 pages)

December 2010: 11 books, 4, 525 pages

Year to Date 2010: 87 books, 30, 292 pages

Whew! Well that was my best month for a long time now although a few of these were read in November when I wasn’t blogging. My favorites were Dining with Joy by Rachel Hauck and Beach Roses by Jean Stone. I can’t say I had a least favorite – I enjoyed them all. It’s off to a new year now and challenging myself to beat 100 books this time!

How about you – how many books did you manage to read this year? Did you meet your goals or fall short? What’s your goal for books read for 2011?

November 2010 Wrap Up

December 3, 2010 by Darlene


I did get a few books read for November although I didn’t write any reviews until the end of the month. Here’s the short list…as you can see it is doubtful I will make 100 books this year but that’s ok – there is always next year. There were more important things this year than worrying about meeting challenges.

  1. The Snow Globe by Sheila Roberts (176 pages)
  2. Halo by Alexandra Adornetto (496 pages)
  3. City of Bones by Cassandra Clare (512 pages)
  4. Faefever by Karen Marie Moning (416 pages)
  5. Wishin’ and Hopin’ by Wally Lamb (288 pages)

November 2010: 5 books, 1888 pages

Year to Date 2010: 76 books, 25, 767 pages

My favorite was The Snow Globe by Sheila Roberts. I really enjoyed it. Next up was definitely City of Bones – I still can’t wait to get to the next book.

September 2010 Wrap Up

October 16, 2010 by Darlene


September was definitely a slow reading month. Buddy getting sick towards the end of September had me not being able to concentrate at all. I did read a few other books but the reviews will be up in October instead. Here goes for September – only two:

1. What We Have by Amy Boesky (336 pages)
2. Come Sunday by Isla Morley (336 pages)

September 2010: 2 books, Page Count: 672

Year to Date 2010: 65 books, Page Count: 21, 839

My favorite – not to much to choose from – but seriously it was Come Sunday. I really enjoyed this novel.

July 2010: 7 books, Page Count: 2, 220
