January Random Reads

 
Hosted by I'm Loving Books!
 
What is Random Reads?

In short, Random Reads is a meme where we pick a random book from our shelf to read within the month. I’m on Goodreads so I’m using a combination of the sorting feature and Random.org to pick the book I’m going to read.
 
 
I'm just randomly picking two books from my TBR pile, I'm going to be picking two different books from different piles! My Received for Review (cause I feel bad that I'm slow to getting to the novels) and TBR pile, as I seriously need to make both of those piles smaller! So, here we go!
 
 
November Picks:
 
Happy Birthday To Me (Birthday Trilogy #1): I started it but it didn't quite hooked me, was in a reading slump though, so I'll try this one again!
 
Whisper of Death: Oh my god! "His story telling is hypnotizing and absolutely spine chilling"
 
 
Now for this months picks:
 
 
~Picks~
 
Frostbite (Vampire Academy, #2)
Frostbite (Vampire Academy #2) by Richelle Mead
Publication Date: April 10th 2008
Genre: Young Adult Paranormal Romance
 
 
~Summary~
 
Rose loves Dimitri, Dimitri might love Tasha, and Mason would die to be with Rose...

It’s winter break at St. Vladimir’s, but Rose is feeling anything but festive. A massive Strigoi attack has put the school on high alert, and now the Academy’s crawling with Guardians—including Rose’s hard-hitting mother, Janine Hathaway. And if hand-to-hand combat with her mom wasn’t bad enough, Rose’s tutor Dimitri has his eye on someone else, her friend Mason’s got a huge crush on her, and Rose keeps getting stuck in Lissa’s head while she’s making out with her boyfriend, Christian! The Strigoi are closing in, and the Academy’s not taking any risks... This year, St. Vlad’s annual holiday ski trip is mandatory.

But the glittering winter landscape and the posh Idaho resort only create the illusion of safety. When three friends run away in an offensive move against the deadly Strigoi, Rose must join forces with Christian to rescue them. But heroism rarely comes without a price...
 
 
I loved the first one so I can't wait to get to this one and with the movie coming out next month, this is a perfect way to get prepared for it!
 
 
 
Pretty Dark Nothing (Pretty Dark Nothing, #1)
Pretty Dark Nothing (Pretty Dark Nothing #1) by Heather L. Reid
Publication Date: April 23rd 2013
Genre: Young Adult Paranormal
 
 
~Summary~
 
It’s been twenty three days since Quinn has slept for more than minutes at a time. Demons have invaded her dreams, stalking her, and whispering of her death. The lack of sleep and crippling fear are ruining her life. Energy drinks and caffeine pills don’t make a dent. When Quinn dozes off in the school hallway, Aaron, an amnesiac with a psychic ability, accidentally enters her nightmare. The demons are determined to keep them apart, and Aaron from discovering the secret locked away in his memory. Together, they could banish the darkness back to the underworld for good. That is, unless the demons kill them first.
 
 
There you go, now lets start this year off on a good note! Can't wait to read these!
 
 
Thanks for stopping by!
