What I am Currently Reading:

Let's see, where am I at with my reading? I finished and loved Thermopylae by Paul Cartledge. I learned a lot and looking forward to reading even more by him and on the subject of Spartans in general. I then picked up The Enemy by Charlie Higson, I had started it a long time ago but it kept getting pushed aside. Well- finally- I finished it. Not only that, I finished writing the review of it! Now, I just need to get it typed up and prettified for the blog :). Now I am slowly getting back into the swing of reviewing, so my first review book is Glitch by Heather Anastasiu. So far, it's a little on the dry side. I just started reading it last night. I'm hoping it picks up, I have book 2 for review and I'm participating in a blog tour for book 3. If nothing else, it's got an interesting premise. 

What I will be reading:
When I finish Glitch I will be moving on to Override (book 2) and then Shutdown (book 3). After that, we'll see where my reading mood takes me.   

What I wish I was reading right now:
I would like to clean up my currently reading shelf on Goodreads, books that I've started but have yet to finish for one reason or another. There are a couple of series that I want to get back into and finish up, as well as series that I want to start. But I'm good with the material I'm reading through now and I like being able to randomly pick what I read. I will get through everything eventually. 

Netgalley Adds
I've been approved for a few titles worth mentioning (some that may jump ahead on the reading pile.)
The Enchanter Heir by Cinda Williams Chima (it's sad that I forgot I owned the first three in this series until I was approved for this title.)
Never Fade by Alexandra Bracken (Darkest Minds 2)
Along Came a Spider by Kate SeRine (Transplanted Tales 3) 
Fear Has a Name by Creston Mapes
Ready to Die by Lisa Jackson (I Love Her!)
Qurantine 2: The Saints by Lex Thomas (I have been waiting on this title for a year!! It's moving up!)

Well, that's all from my desk! Leave a link or mention in the comments what you're reading this week!!

Always Shine,
Starr
