Now reading 13 Reasons Why by Jay Asher. I don’t want to put this off any longer. I am pretty sure I can finish this before Season 3 starts next year?

My Harry Potter collection has now invaded 3 shelves
My Harry Potter collection has now invaded 3 shelves, and I’m sure the publishers won’t stop selling us different editions. I imagine in the future I will have a wall of bookshelves just for Harry Potter books.

I should be reading a bunch of James Patterson books but I only recently found out that this month is Black History Month, so in honor of this, I am reading The Sun is Also a Star by Nicola Yoon.

Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There by Lewis Carroll
Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There by Lewis Carroll
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I listened to the Librivox dramatization audiobook. Very entertaining, but not as good as Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. The first few chapters of the book was a bit boring, but the rest became more enjoyable. I just had to laugh at the silliness of the characters.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This was a fun read! But then again it has to be, because it’s a children’s story. I only listened to an audiobook of this, and I liked it very much. The version I got used different voice actors for the characters, so it’s almost like watching a movie. I found out that I almost know everything about this story before I even listened to it, thanks to the different types of movies out there, most notably Disney’s. I’ll definitely get a copy of this book for my collection.

Daniel X: Demons and Druids by James Patterson and Adam Sadler
Daniel X: Demons and Druids by James Patterson
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
This was better than the last one, probably the best of the series. Still, it’s not “great”, just good. Loved the time-traveling powers he learned, and also the mythology around England.

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I have a paperback of this book, but listened to the audiobook version while working since I don’t have a lot of time lately to read. It was an interesting book. Quite entertaining on some parts. I know this was written a long time ago but some of the language is still shocking. He has some quotable quotes that can still apply today. The humor actually reminds me of J.K. Rowling. Then again, Mark Twain must have inspired a lot of writers, probably including Rowling herself.

Daniel X: Watch the Skies by James Patterson
My rating: 2 of 5 stars
An ok read. I wanted to say this is worse than the first book in the series, but that sounds bad, and I am not comfortable dissing my fave author’s works lol. I still don’t like the main character that much, so finishing this book was a more difficult than the first. What probably carried me through was the action scenes and the light humor. It could probably use a little more plot twists.

The Dangerous Days of Daniel X by James Patterson and Michael Ledwidge
The Dangerous Days of Daniel X by James Patterson
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
You can rely on James Patterson to come up with a fast-read book. This was a young adult novel, probably his first? It’s his answer to the recent popularity of YA books. It’s sci-fi, so that’s different from his other works. I kind of don’t like the main character Daniel, I thought he’s arrogant. The other characters are likeable though.
In other news, I think I am all caught up with my Goodreads challenge. I’ll continue reading this series to put some buffer when I start reading my other, thicker books.
