Hey Everyone,
So the point of this challenge is to find a next great book to read. I am supposed to pick five books on my TBR and read the first chapter of each, talk about them, and then pick on to read. Here are the books that I am picking between:
1. The Fall of Five by Pittacus Lore
2. The Winner's Kiss by Marie Rutkoski
3. The Testing by Joelle Charbonneau
4. Paper Towns by John Green
5. Nevernight by Jay Kristoff
Now I hate reading like this. I usually have three books at a time that I am reading and I simultaneously read all three. But due to this challenge I will be picking up five books and then setting down four of them. Now all four of these I want to read pretty soon, but it stresses me out to start so many books and stop a bunch of them. We will be lucky if I don't just pick up the first book I try out and continue through with that.
#1- The Fall of Five
I have this as an audiobook and the first chapter is 18 minutes long. I listen at 1.5 speed for this series, because the readers are too slow for me.
While I didn't mind this chapter, I wasn't hooked to it. Let's move onto the next book.
#2- The Winner's Kiss
I have this book in a hardback and the first chapter is 14 pages long.
I got a few pages into this book and knew it wasn't the right time to read it.
#3- Paper Towns
I have this book in a paperback and the first chapter is 8 pages long.
I liked the beginning of this. It had me caught right away, and I was in the mood for this kind of writing.
#4- The Testing
I have this book in hardback but as I sat reading the summary I found myself not in the mood to start it. So I moved on.
#5- Nevernight
I have this book in hardback. But a few things stopped me from reading it. First my interest was piqued with Paper Towns. Second I am expecting a book to come next week that I will be picking up as soon as soon as it gets here. So I want to start something short, and this book is not as short as I want. Saying that, this will be next on my list to try the first chapter of once I am done with that other book.
Happy Reading
