May TBR

This may be a little optimistic considering I've only been able to finish four books a month lately, but I'm hoping that if I aim high I'll be able to reach it.

Currently Reading + Plan to Finish
I've been rereading Game of Thrones and it's so great to be back.  When I finish this book I'll be watching season one (which I've never seen).
I've also been listening to an audio version of Rebel of the Sands and hopefully it won't take me long to finish this one.
And I've only got about seven chapters left of Siege and Storm so my goal is to complete that tonight.
During the Rest of the Month
A Court of Mist and Fury comes out tomorrow (*squee!*) and hopefully I'll be able to start it as soon as it arrives.
Last Call at the Nightshade Lounge is an ARC I've been trying to read for a while but I keep getting distracted by other pretty books.  Hopefully this is the month!
The Crown's Game is another book that comes out this month and one that I've been anticipating for quite some time.  I'm going to start this one as soon as it comes out.
Winter is the final book in the Lunar Chronicles and I really, really need to finish this series.  I'm also terrified to see how it ends... but I've heard great things!

Brittany at Space Between the Spines is hosting a review train and this is the book I hope to read.  I don't normally read contemporary, but I do like them a lot on occasion, and this one comes out in the middle of the month so I think that's a perfect place to read it.

Other Bookish Plans
To finally go to a brick and mortar bookstore!  It's been over a hundred days and I'm having serious withdrawal :(

What are your bookish plans for the month?

Top Ten Books On My Spring TBR

Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by the Broke and the Bookish

I haven't done a Top Ten Tuesday in a while, simply because they take time and I don't really like all the themes each week.  I do like doing it occasionally, though, so I plan to do it sporadically.

This week the theme is top ten books on my spring TBR, but I don't actually know if these are my top ten, per say.  It's more like, these are the next ten I plan to read (as of now).  I expect these to change at some point, but would like to get to most, if not all of these.

1. Last Call at the Nightshade Lounge

2. Winter

3. The Trick to Landing

4. Glass Sword

5. Me Before You

6. The Devil and the Bluebird

7. A Court of Mist and Fury

8. Wild Swans

9. The Crown's Game

10. The Serpents Shadow

What are you guys looking forward to reading this season?

February TBR

We're officially a month into 2016!  Wow, that's really crazy to think about.  I haven't had such a hard time writing 2016 instead of 2015 as I thought I would, but I am having trouble getting over the fact that 2006 was SIX YEARS AGO!  I mean, that feels like two years ago, honestly.

Anyway, this month I'm super excited for the books I'll be reading.  One of them is particularly exciting and will absolutely break my heart and put me into a book hangover, I expect nothing less.

1. Six of Crows
So, originally, I was going to finish the Grisha trilogy before reading this one, but you know what? I know that you don't have to read them in that order and I just don't want to put this one off anymore because I every day I wake up and stroke it for a few seconds.  So, yeah, I'm super ready to read this one, and I'll be starting it ASAP.

2. Passenger
I wasn't a huge fan of the Darkest Minds, but I've heard really great things about this one, and also, time travel (my favorite genre).  So, yeah, this is going to be an awesome read and I'm super ecstatic to get to it!

3. Morning Star
This is the book that will leave me absolutely heartbroken and torn to pieces and with such a book hangover that I'm a little afraid to start it, actually.  I thoroughly expect to have to skip classes to get over this one.  We'll see how hard it hits me.  I've already read the free preview which was the first five chapters (I think) and I was a puddle of feelz after page one.

4. Tell the Wind and Fire
I received an ARC of this one from Netgalley and I'm rather excited to read it, since it's one of my most anticipated of the new year!

5. Winter
I'm going to finish this series guys and I don't think I'm ready!  I've heard great things about this conclusion (and I've managed to avoid spoilers!) and I cannot wait to finally take the plunge.

6. Words of Radiance
I've been "currently reading" this one on Goodreads for several months and I really need to finish this.  I love what I've read of it, but the size has just daunted me.  I need to sit down and just finish it at this point.

So what are you guys planning to read this month?  Let me know in the comments!
