Ten Of My Most Recent 5 Star Reads

As I've mentioned in previous Bookmarked... posts I've had some great reads this year, with quite a few 4 & 5 clock reads. Going through my lists though most seem to be 4 clocks, rather than 5, so my list was actually harder to put together than I thought. I didn't want to include 4 clock ratings so this is the list I came up with, I think there are 2 standalone books that aren't on here with my top rating (and half of the Skulduggery Pleasant series...) so it worked out quite well!

So That Was... #2 - February

What a great month for reading! I've had nine '5 clock' books this month, thirteen '4 clock' books and just one dud (a '2 clock' freebie on Kindle) so I think I might have really got into a rhythm with my reading at the moment. Of course, whether this carries on throughout the rest of the year remains to be seen! Having so many high rated reads also makes it impossible to pick a favorite book of the month so I've picked 3, and that was too hard... I narrowed it down even more by not including rereads which helped a teeny tiny bit!

I managed to read slightly more books from my own shelves this month (yay!) and despite still not having my replacement Kindle have read 6 books whilst hunched over the Kindle app on my phone.

Bookmarked... #16

The return of the (mostly) weekly post letting you all know what I'm reading and have lined up for the week! It's my own version of Sheila at Book Journey's It's Monday What Are You Reading (now hosted by Kathryn at Book Date) and I have her permission to rename it for my own nefarious reasons...

More great reading over the last 14 days! I don't want to jinx it but I don't think I've had a bad read yet this year and my 5 star reads seem to be happening frequently. Maybe I've found my reading groove? Either that or my non-planning plan of what to read by choosing at random is working...
