It's time for our Waves of Fiction 2015 Reading Challenge Update!
Several of us at Waves of Fiction started this reading challenge at the beginning of the year. To learn more about it, you can go HERE for the details.
Sounds like it was another good month for the team here at Waves of Fiction. So, let's see how we all did!
I was able to complete NINE books towards my challenge this month! I've finished entire two categories on my board (Title and Rec'ed) and I hope to finish all of my challenges by next month with only a few categories to go!
So let me share with you what I completed this month:
A book with time travel - Outlander
A book with a one word title - Changeling
A book with a number in the title - The Rise of Nine
A book set in another country - The Prize
A book you shouldn't read in public - Can You Keep a Secret?
A book made into a movie - Insurgent & The Longest Ride
A book most of your GR flist has read - Landline
A book with a place in the title - On Dublin Street
As you can see, I finally finished Outlander, which was probably my biggest accomplishment for this challenge. Very excited to mark that book off of my TBR. In addition, it was fun jumping into TWO books that were made into movies because I planned to see them both.
Next month, I'd like to finish my board and see where I can start to double up. This challenge really helped me dive into books I've been meaning to read for a while and dapple with genres I have tried for some time.
It's exciting to see my roomies make amazing progress on their boards too!
A book you shouldn’t read in public - After Hours by Cara McKenna
A book with more than 300 pages - Soaring by Kristen Ashley
A book with a military theme - It’s Always Been You by Jessica Scott
A book by an Australian author - Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty
I completed seven books this last month and I loved most of them. This challenge has been forcing me to pick up books I probably wouldn't have read otherwise even though they've been in my TBR for a while. I hope to get to My Highland Lover by Maeve Grayson for my "time travel book" and Scream For Me by Cynthia Eden for my "third book in a series book". I don't have anything else planned beyond that, but a book set in a college should be easy with all the New Adult books out there.
This month was a little slower for me. I crossed off three which wasn't bad, but I am hoping next month I'll pick up more. Here's what I managed to read this month...
A book set in the summer-The Bargaining by Carly Anne West
A book set in a college-Wicked by Jennifer L. Armentrout
A book by an Australian author-Cinnamon Rain by Emma Cameron
Next month I really want to tackle the time traveling category and the highlands category. Those two are the ones I am not sure if they will fit my reading taste so I want to dive in and see how it goes.
Good job everybody! You guys are killing it!!

Your doing really well with the challenge, too, Eva! I'll have to check and see what you thought of Breath of Scandal. That was a super addictive read for me. I was enraged for the first 25% of the book and couldn't wait for our heroine to dish out some much deserved revenge! :)
DeleteOh man, I know what you mean! The beginning of the book was so hard to read and I was so, so furious!!!!!!!!!
