As I mentioned last month, this year I'm going to post a list of the books I've read at the end of each month.
It's a fun way of breaking up the yearly reads. It's also a cool way of listing the different types of stories & books I read.
Here's my February list:
- The Pool House by Tasmina Perry
- The Death House by Sarah Pinborough
- Gunslinger Girl by Lyndsay Ely
- Big Driver by Stephen King (DNF @ 18pgs)
- The Abyss Surrounds Us by Emily Skrutskie
- Satellite by Nick Lake (DNF @ 80pgs)
- Odd Thomas by Dean Koontz (DNF @ 100pgs)
- The Wonder Down Under by Nina Brochmann & Ellen Støkken Dahl
- Forgotten Women: The Leaders by Zing Tsjeng
Novels read: 9
Non-fiction: 2
Non-fiction: 2
Novellas read: 1
Short stories read: 0
Poem collections read: 0
DNF: 3
Finished series: 0
Yikes, I had a bit of bad luck this month with the DNFs. I was really surprised about how boring Satellite turned out to be. So dull I lost interest and had to put it down. Not enjoying Big Driver was an even bigger surprise because I usually love King's work. This story just handled a trope I despise. Ugh.
As for Odd Thomas, as much as I wanted to like it, I'm not surprised I gave up after 100 pages. For some reason, I haven't been able to read a single Koontz story all the way through. o.O
Although I'm determined to read more novellas, short stories (+anthologies) this month I only read novels. But I did add a bit of non-fiction to the list. ☺
Happy reading!
