Monthly Wrap Up: December 2012

As you can see, December was an AMAZING month for reading. This is the most amount of books I have ever read in a month. Ever. I'm amazed with myself. I have to thank Lani from Read It, Reviewed It for forcing me to read the Lux series, because without her book pushing I wouldn't have read this fantastic series for a long while. The month isn't over yet, but I doubt I'll be finishing any other books so here they all are:

2. Ironskin by Tina Connolly (Bland)

3. The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien

Book of the Month:

I'm sorry, I couldn't pick just one! I have fallen in love with this series. Everything about it is perfect, from the characters to the dialogue, and Jennifer's writing style in general is just FLAWLESS. I cannot express how much I have enjoyed reading this series so far. I read all three books in under a week! And now I have to wait seven months for the fourth book *cries* Luckily JLA has another YA series that I can get into!

Reviews:

• Spark by Brigid Kemmerer
• Ten Things We Did (and Probably Shouldn't Have) by Sarah Mlynowski
• Ironskin by Tina Connolly
• Scent of Magic by Maria V Snyder
• Mystic City by Theo Lawrence
• Gravity by Melissa West
• Ship Breaker by Paolo Bacigalupi
• Splintered by A. G. Howard

In 2012 I read 132 books! Not bad at all, considering in 2011 I 'only' read ~106! I'm only setting my reading goal at 100 books for 2013, because I'm hoping to get a job, and that will probably cut into my reading time. Unless anyone wants to pay me to read? 

Happy New Year, everyone!
