Ides of March Read-a-thon

Hello to all!,


               As you already know i've entered the March  Take control of your TBR  pile challenge hosted by the Caffeinated Book Reviewer and so far i'm not behind my goals i think as you can see my updates here. However i must say that i'm starting to slow, the air  pollution happening this week is tiring me down with huge headache and thus reading was a little put aside...so this read-a-thon relaated to the main challenge is simply right on time to keep me motivated ^^.

Thus here comes the Ides of March Read-a-thon by The Caffeinated Book Reviewer that last until St Patrick Day ^^ just after my birthday

Books:finished: The Goblin King by Shona Husk, The Summons( novella)
started: 

I'm starting slow by participating in my first mini challenge: the Cover Puzzle Challenge hosted by Ginny from Ginny Book Notes. Easy and interesting it reminded me some titles to check^^. Then i joined the other hosts i still didn't know and discovered Villa and her blog Backchatting Books, her challenge surprised me and made me smile so i participated too in the When in Rome... challenge.

Oki concerning the reading part i wanted to start The Goblin king because i'm quite in a celtic mood at the moment^^ but first i had to finish the review of the last book i read and when i opened the book i saw there was a prequel novella... after verification i did own it too so even if onlybooks count i decided to start by the beginning ( it was so worth it^^) and The Goblin king was read in matters of hours and i'm working on the review



Friday
Number of pages I've read today: 152pages
Total number of books I've read:1
Books:finished: The Goblin King
started: Bloodstone

There is still a mini challenge i wanted to participate in but today i was so busy i didn't had time so i concentrate the little i had into reading . Yesterday i discovered that i was really in a celtic mood, wanting to read about druids, celtic legends and such and while perusing my list i saw that quite a book were related to that^^;; and i still think of one or two i could add from my pile but first i started Bloodstone by Nancy Holzner that was waiting for me for a long time already...so far so good.


Saturday
Number of Pages I've read today: 253 
Total number of books I've read:2
Books:finished: The Goblin King, Bloodstone
started: Dirty Magic

The mini challenge 6words or less was really tempting me so i participated between my reading. I finished Bloodstone by Nancy Holzner and to change a little started Dirty Magic ( not as happy as i hoped i would be so far)
Tomorrow is my birthday so probably i will have some reading time^^ and i will see what i decide to try

Sunday
Number of books I've read today:
Number of pages read today:
Total number of books I've read:4
Books:finished: The Goblin King, Bloodstone,Dirty Magic, Storm Warrior

The weather was perfect sunny and  not cold ( not warm either so i took a great plesure reading by the open windows and it helped me read faster too ( oki in fact i read faster when i enjoy)...i put aside Dirty Magic because i didn't like it as much as i hoped and jumped on the next one i really wanted to read and review for St Patrick's Day " Storm Warrior" and that one i devoured  in less than 2hours ( obligatory breaks included) so i was delighted and i  could restart and finish Dirty Magic just after .

With those 2 i definitively read more than expected so i'm quite happy and i will try to continue for the rest of the month
