January 2012 Monthly Wrap-Up: Books and Reviews

Ye Grande Olde TBR(e) Challenge Update

I started January with 269 unread books sitting around my house. And I ended with … *drumroll* …270! January was kind of a terrible reading month for me; there were two weeks in the middle when I read practically nothing, because I was thoroughly stressed out with real-life stuff and had neither the time nor the attention span to read anything more than a few pages at a time. Still, a +1 TBR for the month is not a terrible way to start the year! And February will be better, I’m sure.

…anyways, let’s take a look at the breakdown:

Neutral books – Read, but don’t affect the TBR pile

Audiobooks – Peter and the Sword of Mercy by Dave Barry & Ridley Pearson – METAtropolis ed. by John Scalzi – Clockwork Prince by Cassandra Clare
Read but not owned – Fables, Vol. 16: Super Team by Bill Willingham – Chew, Vol. 4: Flambé by John Layman – Morning Glories, Vol. 2: All Will Be Free by Nick Spencer – The Scottish Prisoner by Diana Gabaldon
E-Books – Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen
Re-Reads – The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien

Changes to the TBR pile

Read from my TBR pile (huzzah!) – The Help by Kathryn Stockett – The Discovery of Jeanne Baret by Glynis Ridley – Enchantments by Kathryn Harrison

Added to my TBR pile (all-around shame!)
– Flashman by George Fraser MacDonald	– The Mirage by Matt Ruff
– The Fault in Our Stars by John Green	– Arcadia by Lauren Groff
Non-TBR Acquisitions (storage-space-related shame!)
– Fables, Vol. 2: Animal Farm by Bill Willingham
