READING PROGRESS

Did you join the 2015 Reading Challenge? I thought it was a great way to push myself to read a bit more, the way I used to before I discovered scrapbooking. And had kids. Ofcourse.

Since the new year started I have read seven books, and my list now looks like this: 


I have read:
  • Headhunters by Jo Nesbo
  • Styckerskan från Lilla Burma by Håkan Nesser
  • Dregen: självbiografin by Dregen and Tore S Börjesson
  • Himmelstrand by John Ajvide Lindqvist
  • The Wicked Girls by Alex Marwood
  • Revival by Stephen King
How did I like them?

All the books I read for this challenge will be posted to my "2015 Reading Challenge" Pinterest board with a very short review in the comments. 

Plans for future reading:

On my nightstand I have a pile of books waiting. They are Mr Mercedes by Stephen King, The Killer Next Door by Alex Marwood and Zombieöverlevnad - din guide till Apokalypsen (Zombie Survival - your guide to the Apocalypse) by Herman Geijer and Jimmy Wallin. I'm looking forwards to all of them! I traded my Himmelstrand copy for the Zombie Survival book. A good trade I think! Inside my nightstand the two parts of A Storm of Swords by George R.R. Martin have been waiting for quite some time. I love those books, but they're such a heavy read. They keep getting bumped down on my to-read list. I'm still looking for a book that will scare me. That's a tough one! I'm hoping to find a copy of House of Leaves by Mark Danielewski. Hopefully that one will do the trick.

How is your reading coming along this year?

  1. I think I am on my 4th book. It is a longer one, not quite 500 pages for that category though. How fun you have read 7 already!

  3. I am also on the lookout for a book to scare me, but in all honesty, I don't really like to be scared! Ha ha. Maybe I will change it to a book that will "slightly" scare me :). Loving how this challenge has brough excitement and purpose back to my reading. Fun stuff!!
