2014 New Releases Reading Challenge

[Nichole]

January-
I finished it today! I didn't really care for this book. Hopefully my February pick will be better!

[Lisa Kay]

Hopefully, Nichole.

[Catherine]

hey...February is tomorrow...and the list hasn't been compiled :(

[Moderators of NBRC, Challenger-in-Chief]

February posted here.

[Joni]

I didn't see this one but would like to try it. Please start me out as Newbie. Are we reading only the books in the monthly post or are others ok if we come across anything else newly minted this year?

February

June

July
A Shiver of Light
The Farm
How to Lead a Life of Crime

[Moderators of NBRC, Challenger-in-Chief]

Welcome to the challenge, Joni! You may read anything - regardless of whether we post it are not - that is released in 2014. If you get an ARC (Advanced Readers Copy) before anyone else, you may count it. If a book comes out in February 2014, but you read it in June 2014, it counts.

In February there are 6 new releases I'm interested in. I've finished one, The Line, and have bought another, Cress. Now, I'm trying to decide what I want to do with the others.

[Moderators of NBRC, Challenger-in-Chief]

Looking good, Lara!

[Moderators of NBRC, Challenger-in-Chief]

Welcome to the challenge, Lil!

[Nichole]

I read for February and I loved it. I can't wait for the next one.

[Catherine]

new releases for March please! lol :)

[Lisarenee]

They're coming. I just have to add book covers.

[Catherine]

cool! as if I need help! I just walk into my local bookshop...and voila!

[Lisarenee]

This list is a doozy and we'll see if I can put in all the covers without going over the post limit. The GR system is slowing so I'll finish it off in the morning. The lag between trying to get a cover to come up and selecting it for the post is too much. Hopefully tomorrow will be quicker.

[Nichole]

I just finished goodreads first read and I loved it. Jaye Wells is now one of my favorite authors!

That was a good book. I loved the world building, but found the ending somewhat lacking/anti climatic. I thought it should have ended with Kate or her ex-fiance going to confront Kate's uncle and leaving us hanging as they say hello.

[Lisarenee]

FYI, That was me up above.

[Elena]

A great challenge to try and keep up with all the new releases! I'm a little late coming in and will try to aim for the Novice level, I think. I'm going to list books that interest me for my own reference and check out ones I manage to get my hands on.

And huge THANK YOU to the moderators for keeping track of and posting all the upcoming releases. Such an enormous effort which makes it so much easier for the rest of us!

I swear I added the new releases at 8AM but they disappeared. That's okay I had a back up copy. They're up again.

I think the only thing that bothered me was that Volos turned out to be a real jerk. When he helped with the antipotion, I thought he was decent. Boy was I wrong

It was good? It's going to be one of our BOMs So I've been trying to be good and wait to read it.

[Nichole]

I really liked it. I've read some mixed reviews , so it's not for everyone, but I will be getting the next one as soon as it comes out.
