Yall know I'm a Mood Reader and dont do well with lists like "heres what I'm definitely going to read in this timeframe!" because chances are I will change my mind as soon as it becomes time to read What's Next lol thanks brain!

HOWEVER there are some books I definitely want to read this year! I think it's Time! This does not include books that have not yet been released, because lets be real, I'm not reading those when they're released. (and of course now that I say that I want to prove myself Wrong.) These are also in no particular order except for when I notice them on my shelf.

This will be The Year of Finishing (Or Continuing) Series, unless I decide not to read any of these in which case I will delete this list and pretend it never happened. Most of these I own physically, and what I don't, I have in ebook form so this will also put a big dent in my Read What You Own challenge too! Exciting! Lets go!!
