For this week’s Road Trip Wednesday, YA Highway asks what was the best book you read in February?
Compared to last month when I read 20 books, this month has been a bit pathetic. I only read six books. That’s a terrible total for me and my only excuse is that I’ve been writing quite a lot (about 50,000 words this month). So anyway, I’ve tweeted every book and I’ve liked them all. Oh, and I signed a book deal this month, so that’s something. Anyway, here are the books:
LOVE YOU HATE YOU MISS YOU BY @escottwrites Sad and deep. Kind of depressing, but hard to look away.
Just finished LOLA AND THE BOY NEXT DOOR by @naturallysteph – So sweet and sexy
Just finished PERFECT by @EllenHopkinsYA . Perhaps I finally really understand her genius.
WHAT I WAS by @megrosoff Gorgeous writing, suspenseful, romantic. UK writers seem to have a whole other approach to YA that I really dig.
FOREVER by @mstiefvater Nice conclusion to a great trilogy. Loved how the series evolved. Go Wolves!
HUNGER by @JackieMorseKess – “why didn’t I think of that” premise. Doesn’t pull punches about anorexia. Nice mix of contemp& paranormal-WIN!
Congratulations on your book deal, and thanks for sharing these! I love this RTW because I always get books to add to my list.
Yeah, I think 50,000 words and a book deal makes up for not reading as much! 🙂 Congratulations on both!!
Congratulations! That is awesome news. Also, Lola was my book of the month when i read it.
Wow, congrats on your book deal!!! That’s awesome.
And I adored LOLA so much. It’s definitely on my top books of the year already, and I only read it in January 🙂
Congrats on your book deal! That’s awesome! I too read a small amount of books this month. I’m glad February is over!
I have heard so much about Lola but refused to add it to my to-read list because I’m not a fan of the cover. Petty, I know. I have officially added it as of now! I need to know what the fuss is all about!
I know. The covers suggest a level of prissiness that just isn’t there. ANNA AND THE FRENCH KISS even has an F-bomb! And there’s plenty of talk of sex, and lots of off screen sex too. And even some drugs.
Well, congrats on the book deal! You threw it out there so nonchalantly. 🙂 I know how exciting that is.
I loved LOLA 😀 (not as much as Anna but still a wonderful read!)
I need to check out some of the other books you mention…
You are so impressive with your all the books you read and then just throwing in that you got a book deal. lol I’d be a whole lot more loud about that. Congratulations, Gabrielle! You deserve them!
I think I might get Lola and give it a read. Thanks for sharing all these fantastic books. 🙂
