Hello there guys!
I've already started signing up for challenges for 2016 because I'm gonna limit myself to 3 that I know I'll be able to keep up with.
One of them is hosted by my friend Sarah from The YA Book Traveller, the #RockMyTBR challenge! And to make it a lil more fun, she's even made a book tag for it!
I don't usually take part in tags but I'm making an exception here because it can work as a lil bit of a list of books I plan to tackle during 2016 for this challenge!
1. SMELL LIKE TEEN SPIRIT (Nirvana) – A Contemporary I Want to Read
I've had this one for quite a while and I'm pretty sure I'd love it because Ann Aguirre made me love NA!
2. SHUT UP AND DANCE (Walk to the Moon) – Most Anticipated Book You Have
After adoring ADSOM I really wanted to read this one but it's in one of my many unpacked book boxes and I cannot get my hands on it until they're unpacked
3. CENTURIES (REMIX) (Fall Out Boy) – A Twist on a Classic or Fairy Tale
I don't read many retellings, but I have heard so many amazing things about this one, so I hope I'll get to this one soon!
4. YOSHIMI BATTLES THE PINK ROBOT (The Flaming Lips) – A Science Fiction Book or a Book Set in the Future
I heard so many great things about this one and I grabbed it on a whim from Book Outlet, so I hope I'll finally get to reading it!
5. SHE LOOKS SO PERFECT (5 Seconds of Summer) – A Book with a Girl on the Cover
My #TBTBSecretSanta got this for me last year and not just one girl but three are in the cover! I've wanted to read it forever, but it was also packed away!
6. AFRICA (Toto) – A Book Set in a Foreign Country
Another of my #TBTBSecretSanta books from last year! It's set in Amsterdam, the Netherlands and I'm sure it's gonna be absolutely amazing!
7. ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST (Queen) – A Book or Books That Will Complete a Series
I loved the other books in this series but I'm a bit scared of the potential heartbreak on this one! But I must be brave and read it once and for all!
8. SOMEONE NEW (Hozier) – A Book by an Author You Haven’t Read Yet
I own more than one book by Claudia Grey but I still haven't read any! 2016 will be the year for sure!
9. HELLO (Adele) – A Book your DNF or Weren’t in the Mood for at the Time
I'm such a chicken! I know I'll love this one and I started it, but the first book was so creepy that I had to cover all mirrors at night! I've been meaning to continue reading this one but only on daylight hours... so I have to set up one of my days off aside to read this one!
10. LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT (Kylie Minogue)– A Book you Bought Because of the Cover
I am usually quite reluctant to go for books only on cover lust (been burned too many times, I'm afraid!) but this one was too adorable to pass up!
I won't be tagging anyone since I so rarely do them myself, but if any of you feel like doing this one... Feel free to tag yourself!!
And maybe join the #RockMyTRB challenge, because let's be honest here... our TBR piles are life hazards! ;)

I have The Waking Engine. It is a really philosophically deep book. I had to take a break from it, and then kind of forgot to get back to it. Please tell me whren you are going to read it and we can buddy read! Octavia sent it to me because when she requested it she thought it was YA. I have Vicious, too.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, I love the idea of budy reading both books with you!! The Waking Engine is out of the box, so many we can read it in Jan?
DeleteJanuary sounds great because as of right now my next ARC isn't publishing until March. 😀
DeleteHAHA! I've been hesitating on Public Enemies too Pili! I'm nervous about it for some reason, which is weird because Ann Aguirre has never let me down. Maybe we can read it together:) Can't wait to see what you think of Cruel Beauty! I loved that one so much:)
ReplyDeleteWe should totally do a buddy read of Public Enemies and support each other through the scary stuff, Jenny! ;)
DeleteYay :D Awesome post Pili. <3 Wishing you the best of luck with this challenge :) I loooved that first book. <3 Ahh. So good. I hope you will read and love it very soon :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much sweetie!!I hope I'll love the Ann Aguirre book too! *hugs*
DeleteInteresting book tag! I LOVED Cruel Beauty. Sadly I hated Public Enemies... I might still read Infinite Risk, but man, I was crushed by how much I didn't like book two. I hope you read (and enjoy!) all of these books, Pili!
ReplyDeleteAlyssa @ The Eater of Books!
Thank you Alyssa! I hope this challenge will help with my quite dangerous TBR pile!
