Here’s hoping I’ve packed my TBR with enough romances to keep me from doomscrolling too much this month. Here’s what I’m planning to read February:

Ship Wrecked -currently reading

Coffee Shop Cupid -currently reading

Lucky Dance Date

Therapy Game Restart vol 4

Bunny Hop Beau

Firework Flame

That Time I Got Drunk And Saved A Human

Costume Party Crush

Tinsel Time Treasure

The Two Lions

There might be a new release towards the end of the month that throw this whole TBR out the window, but we’ll have to wait and see! 😊

The Aotearoa New Zealand Readathon Part Two

Aotearoa NZ Readathon is still alive and kicking and with ten days left in February, I have a few more books to add to my list. Above, we have Cousins by Patricia Grace but I’ll actually be reading her new short story collection Bird Child and other stories which I am very excited to get my hands on. I seem to have several short story collections on my library requests list which will be a nice…

°․✶ JANUARY WRAP & FEBRUARY HOPEFULS

[tealeavesand-roses]

Rating: 4/5

🐺✨

I started Wolf Gone Wild by Juliette Cross a few days ago and finished it this morning. I was immediately bewitched by the cuteness this paranormal romance book constantly exudes. The fact that it's a series with a standalone for each of the Savoie sisters is even more of an appeal. I look forward to reading the rest of the series. 🧚🏻‍♀️

[littlereadsandteas]

Here's my selection to read this month. A mix of fiction & non-fiction.

So Let Them Burn: 4.75 stars

When No One Is Watching: 3.5

My Sister, The Serial Killer: 4.25

[franticvampirereads]

I meant to post my February tbr a couple of days ago but got distracted by the books I’ve been reading 😅. And I maybe kind of already threw part of this tbr out the window 😂🤦‍♀️. So here’s what the original reading plan was:

Fake Dates & Mooncakes -almost finished

Omega’s Pretend Mate - 4⭐️

Magic Steps

F*ck and Fall In Love

Glass Syndrome

Take A Hint, Dani Brown

Power Plays & Straight A’s

Squire

Like Real People Do

Headcase

Somewhere in there all my ebook reading plans decided to change and now I’m trying to finish all of the Harris Cove series. We’ll see how it goes 😂.

February TBR--

It's Girl Scout cookie season AND I get to finally read the next book in The Empyrean series? It's going to be a good month. I'm also continuing on with the Sci-Fi series I started last month. Plus I'm diving into a translated High Fantasy novel that I found a few months back while browsing in a book store.

Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros (The Empyrean #2)-- Year two at Basgiath War College for Violet Sorrengail is destined to be more grueling and brutal than the first. Now the real training begins and Violet must contend with a new vice commandant who has made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is--unless she betrays the man she loves. But Violet knows the real secret hidden for centuries and nothing, not even dragon fire, may be enough to save them in the end.

Iron Wolf by Siri Pettersen (Vardari #1)-- This is a Fantasy Mystery built on a foundation of Norse Mythology about blood, desire, and addiction. Juva knows all about blood readers. Praised for their Sight, they are nothing but swindlers preying on people's fears. Born by blood readers herself, she knows only too well and has vowed never to become one of them. Then her family is threatened by vardari, the eerie lasting ones, who never age. Juva is entangled in a desperate hunt for the blood readers' legacy: a dark secret that once changed the world and may do so again. I don't know a ton about this one. It was translated somewhat recently so I'm excited to get to it. The second book in the series has come out but has not been translated yet so hopefully I'm not setting myself up for heartbreak here.

The Exiled Fleet by J.S. Dewes (The Divide #2)-- The Sentinels narrowly escaped the collapsing edge of the Divide. They mustered a few other surviving Sentinels but with no engines they have no way to leave the edge of the universe before they starve. Adequin Rake has gathered a team to find the materials they'll need to get everyone out.

The Fake Out by Stephanie Archer (Vancouver Storm #2)-- In this one, we follow a girl who decides to get back at her horrible ex but fake dating his rival. But fake dating hockey star Rory Miller is fun and addictive. He's sweet, funny, and protective. He teaches her to skate, sleeps in her bed, and convinces her to break her just-one-time hookup rule. He kisses her like it's real. Which makes her wonder if Rory was ever faking it to begin with. There are just so many things here to make my heart happy. I liked but didn't love the first book in this series so I'm excited to see how I feel about book two.

Floating Hotel by Grace Curtis (NetGalley)-- Welcome to the Grand Abeona, home of the finest food, the sweetest service, and the very best views the galaxy has to offer. All year round it moves from planet to planet, system to system, pampering guests across the farthest reaches of the Milky Way. The last word in sub-orbital luxury--and a magnet for intrigue. I'm excited to see what kind of take on a Sci-Fi Mystery we get with this one.

Cursed Cruise by Victoria Fulton and Faith McClaren (Horror Hotel #2; NetGalley)-- We rejoin our group of teen ghost hunters as they're invited to travel onboard a haunted historic cruise ship. They'll record onboard the RMS Queen Anne, a transatlantic ocean liner with a colorful past of violent deaths. I'm excited to enter this world again. It's been about two years since I read and enjoyed the first one.

Such a Lovely Family by Aggie Blum Thompson (NetGalley)-- This one almost didn't make it to this list before it posted. I got approved for it late in the day while at work yesterday. But if I've got the time I'm going to read it before the end of the month. The Calhouns are in the midst of hosting their annual party to celebrate the cherry blossoms being in full bloom when a brutal murder transforms the yearly gathering into a homicide scene and all the guests into suspects. The family has secrets and drama and I'm sure they're stupidly rich. Who doesn't want to read about rich people drama?

I didn't realize how many second books in series I'm going to be reading during the month. I'm glad I'm making progress in these series. I know a lot of people in the bookish spaces are focused on reading series this year.

Can't help myself. Additional February TBR. Probably gonna sit on this all season, to be honest.

These feel special tho. Gonna keep them close to my heart. 3 I found on our birthday trip to the mall and one poetry book keeps reminding me the universe is on my side. Storybook was my daughter's first birthday theme. And the library had it set up for Valentines, a little present for myself. The universe keeps working in my favorite, keeps leading me back to my books and love of reading and cozy times.
