It’s Monday! What Are You Reading?
Welcome to It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? This is a meme hosted by Sheila @ Book Journey; and I think it is great to start the week with what I’m reading right this minute, and what I’ll be reading (or planning on reading, anyway) for the rest of the week.
Please visit Sheila’s blog to sign up on her linky, that way you will have other Monday bloggers coming to visit you as well.
Last week, I read the following books:
Rise from Darkness by Ciara Knight, the first book in The Battle for Souls series is the story about Gaby who has to move very often due to her father’s work, and in this new place, she realizes there is a lot more to the world than what meets the eye.
3 stars
The second book in Ciara Knight’s Battle for Souls series, Fall From Grace continues shortly after the end of Rise from Darkness, and shows how Gaby has a lot of work to do in order to maybe save the world.
3 stars
The third and last book in the Battle for Souls series, Ascension of Evil, is where the final battle between good and evil happens, and the characters have a lot of trouble knowing whom to trust.
3 stars
Wrong Ways Down is a novella in Stacia Kane’s Downside Ghosts series, and I don’t have enough superlatives to describe how much I loved this installment, told in Terrible’s point of view.
5 stars – my review will be up tomorrow.
Right now, I’m reading
Ever After; book 11 in Kim Harrison’s The Hollows series. I don’t know how, but I thought this book was only being published in October, and I actually had it on my kindle all this time… Good thing, too, because I started having withdrawals here 🙂 so far, I love it!
I am also listening to the audiobook of Slammed by Colleen Hoover. I love how the narrator brings the characters to life so far – it’s really well done! I haven’t listened to any audibooks before, so this is a real treat for me 🙂
And next week, I’m planning on reading the following books:
Bound by Night (Moonbound Clan Vampire #1) by Larissa Ione, I somehow have managed getting an ARC both from Edelweiss and Netgalley for this title, and I have no idea how that happened. Anyhow, I’m really looking forward to reading this.
The Next Best Thing by Kristan Higgins is a contemporary romance novel, and since I love those, and usually enjoy KH’s writing, this is another one I look forward to. I have an eARC from Netgalley for this one as well.
Here are the posts that appeared here at (un)Conventional Bookviews during this past week:

Thanks for stopping by today, have a great Monday and a fantastic week 🙂
Wow. You’ve got plenty of books to read this week, Lexxie. I can only finish 2-3 books per week, 4 if I got lucky. :C
Have fun reading.
Thanks Charlotte. The Battle for Souls series is three books, but they are only around 190 pages each 🙂
Have a great Monday!
I loved The Next Best Thing after I got over a little ick factor lol. Kristan Higgins is my go to feel-good author! Have a great week and happy reading 🙂
There’s an ick factor? Really? Now I’m even more intrigued! I usually enjoy Kristan Higgins books myself, so I’m looking forward to this one.
Thanks for stopping by Teddyree!
Ooh nice! Love Kim Harrison! So can’t wait for her next book next year! The second to last one I believe! So shocking that it’s almost over! 🙁
Happy Reading! 🙂
Here’s my Monday Wrapup
Have a GREAT day!

I’m going to feel so sad when The Hollows series is over! I have read the first nine books in more or less one month, and I just want more and more 🙂
Thanks for stopping by Jessica!

I have Bound by Night also and I need to read it. I am so behind on my netgalley and edelweiss reading!! UGH. I need to quit clicking request!!! 🙂
I know… I should just completely stay away from Netgalley and Edelweiss for a little while. But there are so many cool books there!
Thanks for stopping by Stormi 🙂
I just discovered Kristan Higgins and am looking forward to this book. Have another great reading week.
I have enjoyed other books by Kristan Higgins, and am looking forward to this one as well 🙂 Thanks for stopping by Nise’.
Great post. I’m currently reading Crash by Lisa McMann.
I usually enjoy Lisa McMann books 🙂 I hope you’re having fun with this one!
I can’t wait for you review on Wrong Ways Down! 😉 And I remember you saying something about Ever After being published in Oct and I thought maybe it was a European thing! *giggles* I still need to read Pale Demon and Ever After because the next book comes out in Feb! I’m hoping Kim comes to Denver again. 🙂
I love, love, love Slammed! I hope Bound by Night.
I just finished Unstoppable by Ginger Voight – my review will be up tomorrow. I’m currently reading Stay With Me by Elyssa Patrick. My review will post Friday.
Have a fabulous week, Lexxie!
That was supposed to say I hope you like Bound by Night. 🙂 My fingers can’t keep up with my brain! *giggles*
I love Slammed too, and it’s really great to listen to the audio book! I chose a book I already love, and I’m really curious as to how the slamming will be when someone else is reading it for me 🙂
I hope I’ll enjoy Bound by Night as well, I usually enjoy Larissa Ione’s books, but I have no idea what to expect with this one.
LOL your fingers are faster than your brain? That’s quite a feat 😛 Thanks for stopping by, Brandee! *hugs*
Heisann! Og tusen takk for titten hos meg, så koselig! Nå har jeg kikket litt rundt på bloggen din, og syns den er helt herlig. Her skal jeg titte innom flere ganger, det er helt sikkert 🙂 Klem fra Anette 🙂
Takk for det, Anette 🙂 Jeg skriver bare på engelsk, og leser mest engelsk, og. Men det er alltid hyggelig å “møte” andre norske bloggere. Takk for at du kom innom en tur. Klem 🙂
I read the ARC of Ever After and really enjoyed it. I hope you do too. Come see my Monday Report if you get a chance. Have a great week!
So far, I have loved everything in The Hollows series, so hopefully, Ever After will be good, too. Thanks for stopping by Kathy 🙂
What a great lineup, Lexxie. I don’t read YA very often, but I am hoping to make time for Slammed at some point. I had it gifted to me by another blogger who insisted that it is the book to make an exception for. Enjoy your books.
I have already read Slammed, Belle, and I loved it so much! The audio book is pretty awesome so far as well.
Thanks for stopping by 🙂
