Take control of your TBR-pile Read-A-Thon.

I did one read-a-thon last year and I had so much fun, that I decided to participate in a few this year. This read-a-thon sounds great and I have more than enough books on the shelves I need to read. I really hope to lower my TBR pile, because the amount of unread books is overwhelming.

You can find more information here at the host: Kimba @Caffeinated Book reviewer. But a short version (from her blog): This month is meant to read away that TBR-pile. Every book must be published before March 2013. Time to read your own books! This Read-A-Thon starts March 1st and ends March 31.

Link to my read-a-thon page: Thedailyprophecy. You can find my progress there.
Planning to read:
1. Wendy Higgings - Sweet evil.
2. Emily McKay - The farm.
3. Robin Wasserman - The book of blood & shadow.
4. Laini Taylor - Daughter of smoke and bone.
5. Sangu Mandanna - The lost girl.
6. Sarah Zettel - Dust girl.
7. J. A. Souders - Renegade.
8. Philippa Gregory - Changeling.
9. Jody Gherman - Audrey's guide to witchcraft.
10. Leigh Bardugo - Shadow and bone.

and I'm currently reading Splintered by A.G Howard, part of my TBR pile.
 
Have you read any of these books? Which one do you recommend to read first? If you are participating, leave a link to your post and I'll definitely stop by!

  1. Yay! You'll be reading Shadow & Bone. That was one of my favourite books from last year, so I can't wait to see what you make of it. Also looking forward to your thoughts on Splintered! :)

  4. Oh The Farm I really want to get that one! And The book of blood & shadow is so good! One of my favs but it does get about 100 pages to get started to be patient it totally pays off! And when it does start, it STARTS! ;)

    1. I keep hearing that, so I'm very excited to start it after I finish Shadow and bone (pretty confusing! Those titles are so similar)

  10. I would recommend Shadow and Bone. I'm one of the ones who was not enthralled by Daughter of Smoke and Bone (it is kind of annoying me that both have bone in their title).

  11. I haven't read any of those yet but I have The Farm. It's a review book so it doesn't count for me but as you saw on my post, I have no lack of choices. :D

    Good luck!

    1. Haha, I know the feeling. It was hard to pick only 10 books I need to read, since I have so many books waiting.

  13. Ahhh! I've been wanting to do a read-a-thon, but I'm scared I'll be really slow at it and get really stressed. I really loved daughter of smoke and bone, shadow and bone, and the lost girl. i flew through them so I hope you do too! Good luck!

    1. Oh, you should try it out! It is so much fun :) There is no need to get stressed. You could always set the bar on 5 books and see how far you can get.

  16. Oooo a read-a-thon sounds like fun. I just read Splintered and thought it pretty cool, but I also read Shadow and Bone and adored it. I couldn't put it down and actually read the whole book in one day. Good luck!
