Today I am going to be doing my Reading Wrap Up for the month of February. I read 26 books in the month of February. I am not going to be listing every single book I read (because we would be here forever) but I will be mentioning the significant ones and grouping series together.
Here are the books that I read in February:
To start off, let’s talk about my Reread Challenge (in which I reread one of my favorite series per month). For this month, I reread the first half of The Grey Wolves Series. I read this series a couple years ago and I fell in love instantly. It felt good to revisit them and see some of my favorite characters again. I hope to be able to reread the rest of the series sometime soon.
My reviews for each of these books can be found individually by their title below:
- Prince of Wolves (The Grey Wolves #1) by Quinn Loftis
- Blood Rites (The Grey Wolves #2) by Quinn Loftis
- Just One Drop (The Grey Wolves #3) by Quinn Loftis
- Out of the Dark (The Grey Wolves #4) by Quinn Loftis
The first books of the month that I read was the first two books in the Desolate Lands Trilogy. This is a New Adult Dystopian Reverse Harem. I rated them both pretty highly, but I ultimately decided to stop reading the series after the second book for reasons listed in my reviews below.
The next books I read this month were the first two books in the Blackthorn Mountain Men Series. They are Adult Contemporary Romances. They were both fun to pass the time with, but there was nothing too special about them. That is ultimately why I decided to stop reading the series. My reviews for both books is listed below.
- Claiming His Mountain Bride (Blackthorn Mountain Men #1) by Madison Faye
- His Captive Mountain Virgin (Blackthorn Mountain Men #2) by Madison Faye
The next books I read this month were the first two books in the RH Fated Alpha Series. The series is an Adult Fantasy Reverse Harem. The first book was really good and I highly enjoyed it. However, the second book was a disappointment and made me decide to drop the series. My reviews go into further detail and can be found below.
- Elizabeth and the Clan of Dragons (RH Fated Alpha #1) by Ava Mason
- Elizabeth and the Call of Dragons (RH Fated Alpha #2) by Ava Mason
Next, I read the first two books in The Ravger Chronicles Series. It is an Adult Science Fiction Romance. I absolutely adored the first book and, for reasons explained in my review of the second book, eventually dropped the series. My reviews for both books can be found below.
- Princess SOS (The Ravager Chronicles #1) by Sara Page
- The Dark Princes (The Ravager Chronicles #2) by Sara Page
After that, I read the first two books in the The Bullets Series. This is an Adult Dark Reverse Harem. I had been dying to read this series for months and I was not disappointed. I could not put the first book down for the life of me. The second book was a different story. It was my first DNF of the month for reasons that I explain in my review below.
- Sunshine and Bullets (The Bullets #1) by Coralee June
- Summer and Smoke (The Bullets #2) by Coralee June
The next book was one that I unfortunately had to DNF. I am not a fan of DNFing books and I typically do not do it, but this book was just one that I could not make myself finish. That is a shame because this was a New Adult Contemporary Reverse Harem that I had really been looking forward to. I go into further detail about why I DNF’d this book in my review which can be found here.
Books By Alexa Riley:
For those who don’t know, I am a big Alexa Riley fan. This co-author duo writes A LOT of short books and, because of that, they are my most read author. I have read over 50 of their books and there are so many more to get to. In my last Wrap Up, I decided to put them at the bottom of the list in their own separate category so that all of the books would be grouped together instead of randomly spread throughout it. I decided to carry that on as a monthly thing so here is that section for this month. I read 6 books by Alexa Riley this month and here they are:
My reviews for each of these books can be found individually by their title below:
- Closer by Alexa Riley
- Con Artist by Alexa Riley
- Locked Up Love by Alexa Riley
- Paid For by Alexa Riley
- Hungry For More by Alexa Riley
- Virgin Husband (Virgin Marriage #1) by Alexa Riley
February In Review:
As far as the quantity of books I read goes, I am happy with this month. I read a good amount of books and I am on track for my 365 goal. As far as the quality of books I read goes, this month was not as good for me. I only had a handful of 5-Star reads and I DNF’d more books than I would have liked. I am hoping that next month will be better in that regard.
A Sneak Peak Into March:
I was recently given Fire & Blood by George R.R. Martin as a gift. I am a GIANT Game of Thrones fan and I was SO excited when I received the book. I will be reading and reviewing it sometime in March.
I am still debating which series is going to be the one I read for my Rereading Challenge in March though.
