January 2012 Wrap-Up

Here's a summary of my book-related activity for January. This month I mostly focused on catching up on the few NetGalleys and review copies I had received in December. I was also on a self-imposed book buying ban in order to try to catch up after buying too many books in December!

Books I read (linked to the reviews)

Tuck Everlasting by Natalie Babbitt (TBR pile)
The Grimoire Chronicles: Veil Between Worlds by Sally Dubats (new book)
Steam-Powered 2: More Lesbian Steampunk Stories by various authors (review copy)
Interview With the Vampire by Anne Rice (re-read [but this time in audio!])
Behind the Beautiful Forevers by Katherine Boo (review copy)
Caught in Crystal by Patricia Wrede (NetGalley)
The Vampire Lestat by Anne Rice (re-read [but this time in audio!])


Books I bought

I was a good girl and didn't buy a single book in January. It was SO HARD you guys!

Books that magically appeared in my mailbox!

Aaaaah so exciting!!

Progress on challenges

Tuck Everlasting was my January book for the Read Your OWN Library! Challenge.

I completed the following letters for the 2012 A-Z Book Challenge: B, C, G, I, S, T, and V. (I'm on a roll! Haha, except obviously this challenge gets harder as you go and you have less letters left to choose from...)

I read 2 books for the Mount TBR Reading Challenge.

I read 2 books for the 2012 Anne Rice Challenge. You can still sign up!
