So I've been been to my word and putting down my reading devices (hopefully) for the summer. Don't get me wrong, I love all my electronics, as stated in my original Reading it Old School post. I just wanted to take a little break from them and I'm really enjoying focusing on my physical books.
The books on my list:
The Chosen Ones by Tiffany Truitt
Legend & Prodigy Marie Lu
Mila 2.0 by Debra Drizda
Shatter Me & Unravel Me by Tahereh Mafi
After the End by Amy Plum
Guardian by Alex London
These Broken Stars by Megan Spooner
(City of Heavenly Fire by Cassandra Clare is not pictured. It's currently on loan to a friend.)
So far I've finished Legend by Marie Lu (it was fantastic!) and now I've moved on to Prodigy, the second in the Legend series. I even picked out another one of the bookmarks from my collection (pictured above). This one is from Taking On the Dead and signed by the author Annie Walls. It shows one of my favourite her I ones ever Kansas, waiting to kick some zombie butt. Cool eh =D
As I said in my original post there will most likely be a couple ebooks that find their way into my hands like Opposition by Jennifer L. Armentrout which releases on August 5th. And Queen of Hearts: The Wonder by Colleen Lakes which releases on July 22nd. Other than those I've been sticking to my list.
Do you think you could unplug yourself from your reading devices for the summer or maybe give it a try? Share your thoughts with me.


*sees all the yummy books* *grabs at computer screen* I love physical books much more than I like reading the books on my kindle. I like flipping through pages and smelling that new book smell. :) I hope you get to read all those great books!
ReplyDeleteThanks Monique =D I'm hoping to finish all, or most of them, this summer. *fingers crossed*
