February 2016 Reading Map

It’s the beginning of the month and time to plan out my reading. I do this with a ‘Reading Map’. This is like a road map of my reading journey. Each month I do a ‘check-up’ to help me see what I’ve accomplished towards my reading goals and to help me see what needs to be done next.

First I like to take a look at what I’ve accomplished over the past month.

What I read in January

• The Secrets of Lizzie Borden by Brandy Purdy
• Everything I Never Told You by Celeste Ng
• The Things We Keep by Sally Hepworth

What I DNF’d

• Noah’s Wife by Lindsay Starck

What I’m currently reading.

• The Witch of Lime Street by David Jaher
• My Sweet Vidalia by Deborah Mantella

And now it is time to look ahead for this month. You may remember that this year I am going to split my reading map into two legs. The first leg will consist of ‘must-read’ books; books that I have committed to read for reviews in the next few weeks. The second leg will be books that I want to read, and am currently in the mood to read, but there is no pressing need or commitment to read them now. Depending on my reading moods and what may come along this month, I may or may not complete the second leg!
