Books I Gave Up On (4):
- Jennifer Armintrout's Lightworld/Darkworld. I felt very confused by the world... I gave the series 85 pages and it just wasn't pulling me in at all. I give up.
- Velveteen by Daniel Marks. I gave it 100 pages and nothing was compelling me to read it. I just think it's not my cup of tea.
Challenges Completed -- None yet, but I'm making great progress.
Comments -- A mixed bag this month. I read a few great books and a DNF'd a few books. I felt very schizophrenic this month. But I am happy with my page counts and challenge slots. I knocked off quite a few books from my TBR list. Onward to March!
