October 2015 TBR

A Dance with Dragons Part 2: After the Feast by George R.R. Martin 

(I started this in September after finishing Part 1 and I am so excited to finish this book and finally be all caught up with this series.)

Elixir by Hilary Duff 

(I started this book in September but I put it down to read other books and just never got back to it so I really want to finish it in October.)

Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon 

(This was actually one of the September picks for the Readalongs with April group on Goodreads, but I couldn’t get my hands on a copy until now so I will be reading it this month instead.)

The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin 

(This is one of the October picks for Readalongs with April and I am so excited because I have been wanting to start this series for some time now. It’s actually been on some of my past monthly TBR lists but I just didn’t get to it.)

Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs 

(This is the October pick for the Read-a-Long with Priceiswong Goodreads group and yet another book that I’ve been really wanting to read.)

Four Seconds to Lose by K.A. Tucker 

(This is the third book in the Ten Tiny Breaths series. The second book wasn't great but I do want to continue on so I will be reading the this book.)

Between the Lines & Off the Page by Jodi Picoult and Samantha van Leer 

(It has been one of my goals this year to read all of my unread Jodi Picoult books and these are the last two on the list. Hopefully I can get to both of these this month and it will feel like such an accomplishment when I finish them!)

Harry Potter: The Character Vault by Jody Revenson 

(I pre-ordered this one and it just arrived in the mail. So excited to read this!)

Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone: The Illustrated Edition by J.K. Rowling and illustrated by Jim Kay 

(I also pre-ordered this one and I cannot wait to finally get my hands on this book! I don’t think I will be reading it fully as I completed a re-read of the entire series earlier this year, but I will definitely be devouring all the beautiful illustrations.)

I might go with whatever I feel like this month, instead of trying to read the books on my currently reading list on Goodreads. But I'm definitely in the mood for:

Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling - I would love to finish the audiobooks (I'm almost done with Order of the Phoenix) before my copy of the illustrated edition of Philosopher's Stone arrives. I can't wait to see all of the gorgeous illustrations! I'm waiting to see if I'm in the mood to read the whole thing though. I just might!
Queen of Shadows by Sarah J Maas. I am 1/3 the way through so far (impressive since September was a reading slump) but I will be speeding up progress through the book by skipping or skimming the witchclan chapters. I don't like those characters and I get bored reading them. If it becomes necessary to read them fully, I'll set aside some time specifically to focus on those chapters.
Percy Jackson by Rick Riordan. I am up to the third book in the series and I have the Heroes of Olympus series on laybuy (I picked up over $100 worth of books, hence the laybuy) and I'm really looking forward to catching up both series before moving onto Riordan's new book.
 The Heart of Betrayal by Mary E. Pearson. I finally bought this book! So I can't wait to continue the series.
Sapphire Blue by Kerstin Gier. I finally bought this one too! Yay!!
Snow Like Ashes by Sara Raasch. I've been seeing people review this series on Booktube lately, so now I'm in the mood to start it.
