My Classic Choice for Summer

I have charged myself with reading one if the longest classic books of my life today!  I want to complete Les Miserables by Victor Hugo by the end of the summer.  I know it's a huge book but am hoping that it will not be a hard read like some other classics can be.  This will be one of the first classics I have picked up in over a year, and I'm really hoping to enjoy it throughout the summer.

And then of course I will be watching the movie!  I have actually seen this performed on Broadway while in High school in NY, and am intrigued to see how the film turned out.

My 2013 Reading Goal

 

This year I decided to take a reading challenge! 

I originally set my goal at 75 books for the year, but then had to bump it up to 100 books.  Since I read tons of series authors that have atleast 10-15 books in them my numbers tend to creep up quickly!

Thanks to some new Facebook groups dedicated to the awesomeness that is Paranormal Fiction.  Through all the other fans I have found tons of awesome new books and series to try out!

Im thinking if i stay on pace I may have to bump the goal again!  I have a slight problem!  So stay tuned for some of my favorites as I review them!

Welcome

Welcome!

I love reading anything I can get my hands on but mostly paranormal romance and historical fiction.  I have been doing a personal book reading challenge this year and thought that I would also try my hand at a book reading/reviewing/obsession type blog!

So a little info about myself!  My name is Anya and I'm 31 years old and have 2 wonderful children
 ( Liam 6 and Maggie 3) and a houseful of crazy furry babies too (Sunny, golden retriever and 4 cats).  I don't have tons of free time but you probably guess how I prefer to spend it!

Like previously said I do prefer to read paranormal romance, but for me to really enjoy them it has to have way more plot than just the hero and the other main characters having sex all the time!  I also usually read series since I read pretty quickly and love how the authors continue building the world and characters through out the series.

Some of my favorite series are:  The Black Dagger Brotherhood by J.R. Ward, Dark Hunters by Sherrilyn Kenyon,  Argeneau by Lynday Sands, Fever series by Karen Marie Moning,  and Sookie Stackhouse by Charlaine Harris to just hit the tip of the iceberg.

My goal with this blog is to have some reviews, some free book links and some fun sayings and quotes!

Enjoy!
