This year is off to such a good reading start, y’all. The stories I pick up have been interesting and entertaining, I’ve not felt the need to bail/DNF anything yet {I’m pro-DNF, but it is nice not to have to}. I’ve also been doing better balancing my library reads and reading my own shelves.

Clearly February was another winning reading month, in spite of being short. Look at all those stars! And the pages really added up too: according to the data {Goodreads and The Storygraph}, I read 2,644 pages in 29 days. {Not counting the 80% of an ebook I didn’t quite manage to finish before the month ended}. As I said: such a good reading year so far.
Also: House of Flame & Shadow … One of my most anticipated reads of the year, and it did not disappoint. So good. So so good. Crazy fast-paced, from page 1, and yet SJM still managed to up the ante the last 100 pages of the book. I don’t know how she does it, but I will gladly read and reread. My work bestie and I read this one together {mostly; I finished ridiculously fast, oops}, and plan to start working our way through the Throne of Glass series soon. That will be a reread for me, and a first read for her, so I’m very excited for that.
Another book totally worth the hype? Fourth Wing. I know, I’m late to the game on this one, but when a copy landed at the library/the holds list was finally gone, I decided to pick it up for the interval before we start Throne of Glass. Took me a minute to get into it, but then I was hooked – to the point I ordered my own copy, and a copy of Iron Flame, and returned the library’s. Clearly I am in my Fantasy Reading Era.
How did your February reading stack up? Read something amazing? Did anything earn a DNF? Tell me all your bookish news!
