January TBR!

Hi! I hope everyone had a good Holiday! My last week of 2014 flew by! I sadly did not complete my Goodreads goal of 50 books, but only by three I believe. So my Goodreads goal for this year is also 50 books! Maybe I can surpass that! You never know. Any way onto my TBR pile for January!

Since the start of January I have read two books, which are  Prophecy of the Sisters by Michelle Zink and Going Down in Flames by Chris Cannon! Both books were really good and I enjoyed them! In both books, there were characters I did not like. I gave them both a 4 stars out of 5. Ironically, both books are also the first book in a series!

I am currently reading three books, which are The Shinning by Stephen King, City of Lost Souls by Cassandra Clare, and Bridges Burned by Chris Cannon. Bridges Burned is a ebook ARC, which I got for sent to me for review and the review will be up on the 27th, the release date. It is also the second book in the Going Down in Flames series. I am not far in either of the three books, but I will be doing a lot of reading today! I am participating in the Biannual Bibliothon reading sprints as I am participating in the read-a-thon, but I am not doing the TBR or the wrap up for it. I am just participating to put myself in the reading mood and to keep myself there!

When I finish one of these books, I will start reading in the Light of Madness by Hemmie Martin, who is amazing and you should check her out! This is the first book in her DI Wednesday series! I also know for a fact that the second book is fabulous as well. Since I read that first by accident. :D I will be reviewing this as well since the lovely AuthorAmp.com sent me the ebook! Thanks so much Kris and Hemmie! I am really excited to read this :D

Then I will read The Patmos Deception by Davis Bunn, which was also sent to me for review by Bethany House for free. I am also excited to get into this book as well.

Night of All Evil by J.M. Shorney

My Rating: 3/5 stars Average Rating: 4/5 stars Format: ebook ISBN13: 9781310806902 I received a free copy in exchange for a honest review from AuthorAmp.com Night of All Evil was a good gothic horror novel about a witch named Freya that has a dark past that comes back to haunt her and her family. Freya was my favorite character and I really enjoyed reading from her point of view. The thing I liked about her was how she acted in the situations she is placed in. She also is just an interesting person that also happens to be a super powerful witch, which is pretty cool. In fact once I started this novel, I had a hard time putting it down. While I really enjoyed reading the story, the character development was just okay and it was kind of predictable. However, it was still a good read that grabbed my attention and kept me entertained.                        ...
