Hi everyone, I can't wait to take part in this challenge. Here are my resolutions.
1. I resolve to read more historical fiction
2. I resolve to read the books that have been on my TBR for the longest (since 2014)

[Rebecca]

Hello all, I am working on making my resolutions.

[Rebecca]

so my first resolution will have to be to read as much of my rar to be completed shelf as possible- https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...

[Miranda]

1. I resolve to finish 4 series this year
2. I resolve to finish all of the books I currently own by the end of the year

[Holly]

Hi everyone! I look forward to being on a team with all of you!

1. I resolve to finish all of the series I have on hand
2. I resolve read at least ten of the unread books on my bookshelf and at least ten unread books on my kindle

[Rebecca]

okay so my second resolution would be to read all the books on my currently reading shelf

My resolution is to
1. Read a series every other month and to read 2 books in the other months.
2. Not making unnecessary noises when something unexpected happens.
3. Remember the dates I finished books
I can only try.

[Rebecca]

@Favour I like 2. but does it include sobbing noises?

[Rebecca]

I also have a new resolution-
3. Read 2 one off books a month (not part of a series)

YES!!

@Kirsty I swear I am seeing you doing buddy reads in the review post then thinking "I have that book... if i read it we'll get extra points... I'm going to read it... oh balls I'm late starting... that's okay as long as I post 4 status updates into the buddy read thread it still counts... right?... I'll start it tonight... Oh wait I'm reading (insert name of book here)... I'll start tomorrow... Or maybe the day after... as soon as I've finished at least one of the books I'm reading now...sometime over the next few days hopefully"

Haha, I've just been really lucky that loads of the books I wanted to read have had buddy reads this month. Also, I haven't had many classes this week so I have had plenty of time to read.

[Rebecca]

haha- I always feel bad about starting them late but better late than never- are you doing any more this month? and when? I feel like if I ask you, you might be doing some I wanna do

[Kirsty]

I've been really good this month and planned what I was going to read as I usually find out about buddy reads half way through the month. I'm currently reading Happily Ever After by Kiera Cass, Attachments by Rainbow Rowell on 15th, Carry On by Rainbow Rowell on 18th and Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Claire on 25th.

[Olea]

Sorry I haven't been here for a while.
1. I resolve to finish Divergent
2. I resolve to read 35 or more books

[Rebecca]

Is clockwork Angel the first in that series? I may join you for that one
@olea not a problem just enjoy your reading

[Kirsty]

Yeah Clockwork Angel is the first book in the Infernal Devices trilogy

[Rebecca]

I might join you for that one

[Rebecca]

OK, I am trying to keep you guys up to date on my buddy reads I'm starting;
tonight on the following buddy read. https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
on the 20th with https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
on the 24th with this thread https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...


I'm planning on finishing and within the next few days- possibly tonight if i push myself. And I'm also going to start reading some of the short reads from my rar to complete shelf...https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...

I may also start the buddy read with @Kirsty on the 25th but I'm struggling to find that thread so if you could help me out Kirsty it would be much appreciated.

[Kirsty]

Yeah sure, the link is here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

It is a series buddy read of all of Cassandra Claire's books in the Mortal Instruments and Infernal Devices series.

[Rebecca]

I've got them on kindle just haven't got round to reading them yet. Do I have to finish reading the mortal instruments first to understand them?

[K.W. Penndorf]

I would love to read more and write more reviews for other authors. I also can't wait to bring out book two of my Freya series.

I don't know I've only read up to book 3 but the person that created the thread suggested a reading order and she suggested reading the first 3 of the Mortal Instruments then the 1st of the Infernal Devices.

[Sarah Elizabeth]

That's the order recommended by Cassandra Clare on her website ☺
