Latest Review: "Incandescent" by Shannon Avangeline

Post by lmoses »

My reading goal for 2016 on Goodreads.com is 200 books. So far, I am at 102 books. I love to read and with my husband being deployed, I have a lot of time to do it! Most of my books are romance or fantasy, but I have decided that this year I will add more crime and biographies, to mix things up!

I have already gotten most of the list done. I love to read anything and I read at least 2 to 3 books a week. This is going to be an excellent challenge!

All the ones that I have marked are for different books. I just read a lot and I also read really fast. :)

I'm glad you enjoyed V for Vendetta, Gravy! Is the last line in reference to it? (By the way, your avatar kind of gives me the willies! :lol: )

I just marked off 12) Read an officially reviewed book, not including your own review and/or books of the month.
- Return to the Dirt: Three Tales of Work and Death by Geoff Sturtevant - it was really good! A definite 4/4 star rating!
