What I’ve read:

My goal that I posted last week was to finish 1 of the books that I had been reading at the time.  I did not accomplish my goal.  I’m closer than I was a week ago but still it seems so far away.  I even know what is preventing me from accomplishing my goal…Christmas.  I’m knitting up a bunch of handmade Christmas presents this year and I’ve been working on those since I’m down to a little over a month until Christmas.

What I’m Reading:

Darkfever (Fever, #1)

I’m 188 pages into this book, which according to goodreads puts me at 55% of the way through this book.

The Scorpio Races

No progress, still 47 pages in.

The Lost Hero (The Heroes of Olympus #1)

No progress, still 255 pages in.

My goal for the next week:

My goal for the next week is to finish and post the review for Darkfever.  I’m also hoping that I can make a little more headway in the other two books I have listed above.

What else I’ve posted this week:

This weekly meme is hosted by Bookjourney.  This is where we get to tell everyone what we’ve read, posted, hope to read and is yet another way to find more books to add to one’s wishlist!  It’s been a REALLY slow week here on Tales from the Crypt.  Not much going.  The upside is I’m 3 “likes” away from 60 “likes” on the Tales from the Crypt page.  3 more “likes” and I’m going to do a facebook giveaway!

What’s been going on:

Created The Book Junkie’s Bookshelf – I read and review books in Mystery/Thriller/Suspense, YA (Minus the paranormal), Westerns, and Romance (Contemporary, Historical, Suspense) on this blog.

Let’s Talk about Genre’s – Discussion post where I talk about the genre’s I read and ask you the readers a couple questions.

Teaser Tuesday #2

Beth Revis 19 Book giveaway

What I’m Reading:

Darkfever (Fever, #1)

I’m over 100 pages into this book now.  So far I’m liking it. I’ve met Barron’s and he’s in this “he’s being a prick” stage…Doesn’t help that Mac keeps egging him on.

The Scorpio Races

I’ve made no progress on this one.  Still 47 pages in.

The Lost Hero (The Heroes of Olympus #1)

No progress.

What I Read:

In Bed with a Highlander (McCabe Trilogy, #1)

Review coming soon on The Book Junkie’s Bookshelf

Seduction of a Highland Lass (McCabe Trilogy,  #2)

Review coming soon on The Book Junkie’s Bookshelf

Never Love a Highlander (McCabe Trilogy, #3)

Review coming soon on The Book Junkie’s Bookshelf

My Plan for the week:

My plan for the week is to get my three reviews posted on The Book Junkie’s Bookshelf and finish 1 of the three books I’ve got going right now.  Small plan but hopefully do able.

“This is a great way to plan out your reading week and see what others are currently reading as well… you never know where that next “must read” book will come from!”  So I just created my blog last Friday so I don’t have much on here yet but I will show what I’ve been up to so far.

Currently Reading (Click the covers to go to Goodreads page):

The Lost Hero (Heroes of Olympus, #1)

Still working on this one.  I’m a bit of a slow reader so this REALLY thick book is taking longer than I had hoped.

The Scorpio Races

So far I’m really impressed with this book.  I go the chance to read an ARC of it and I didn’t care for the layout of the ARC….The finished copy is soooo much better.

Darkfever (Fever, #1)

Yet another series that everyone seems to have read but me.  I literally just started this book so not much to report yet. 🙂

What I hope to read:

One Foot in the Grave (Night Huntress, #2)

I’m finally going to see what all this “Chapter 32” business is about!

Currently Reading (click covers to go to Goodreads page):

Halfway to the Grave (Night Huntress, #1)

This is the first time I’m reading a book by this author and so far I’m really happy.  I’m about 140 pages in and Bones and Cat are exceeding my expectations so far.

The Lost Hero (Heroes of Olympus, #1)

I picked this book up on a whim one day and I’m very glad I did.  I’m about 255 pages into it and it’s REALLY good!

I don’t really know what I’m going to read next.  I just got a bunch of new books in the past couple of days and a couple of them I’ve heard nothing but great things about.
