Magical March Reading Challenge!


I have been in this blogger world for awhile now and I noticed something that book blogs did that I was interested in doing but just didn't have the time for. That would be reading challenges. So I have decided I will finally just go ahead and do one.

The timing all works out for me for March. I got a pile of books from St. Martin's to read and why not make it a little more intersting? Some of them don't fit in this challenge but oh well, I still have a TBR pile that just keeps growing so I will be attacking that too.

So here it goes! I am joining the Magical March reading challenge hosted by Roof Beam Reader. I am aiming for at least 4 books so I am aiming for Sorcerer's Class. These are the books that I have that fit in this challenge and are hoping to get through, not in any specific order:

1. Hunger Games (Have had for awhile but hasn't been able to get to it yet)
2. Mocking Jay
3. Catching Fire
4. Wake by Amanda Hocking
5. 13 to Life by Shannon Delany
6. Glimmerglass by Jenna Black

Obviously that's more than my goal of 4 but I might just skip over Mocking Jay and Catching Fire but haven't decided yet only because I haven't read the first one yet.

There is still time to join this reading challenge if you are interested. If you meet your class you get entered to win a free book (each price goes by class you acheive). Head on over to this page HERE at Roof Beam Reader and take a look!

Good luck!

I'm already 100 pages into my first challenge book (The Crystal Cave by Mary Stewart - book 1 of her Merlin Trilogy) because I'm enjoying it so much! This has me excited because I put all three books from the trilogy on my list - and they're long (About 400 pages each). If I enjoy them this much, though, and read them this quickly - I might actually hit my goal of 4 or 5 books this month. w00t!

I think you'll probably want to read Catching Fire and Mockingjay, after reading The Hunger Games. I think Catching Fire (which is Book 2 in the trilogy) was my favorite of the 3 - I was a bit disappointed with Mockingjay, as it just left me wanting more from a finale.. but the series was really good and a really quick read.
