2015 Reading Challenge: Feb Update

See this content in the original post

I love reading, and lists, and challenges, so I'm working on the Popsugar 2015 Reading Challenge.

So far I have read four books and I just started a fifth yesterday. 

January:

The Curious Cake of the Copper Corpse - This is a super short story not really a book, but I obviously read it in one day so I'm gonna count it for now, if I read something else in one day I'll change it. 

Yes Please - I love Amy Poehler, and I'm fairly certain that if I were famous and living near Amy, we'd be pals. Amy if you ever read this... I live near the beach and Disney world. We could DRINK AROUND THE WORLD and watch fireworks at the end of the day, then recover on a beach, under an umbrella to protect our pasty skin while drinking umbrella drinks! There will also be snacks.

The Counterfeit Heiress - The Lady Emily series is one of my vary favorites. I hope she never runs out of adventures. 

Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep - Science Fiction isn't my go to genre, but I really liked this book. And now I want an electric pet. 

I'm kicking off February with the giant

Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell. So far the first 12 pages are good, I'll let you know what I think when I'm finished. 

I also have plans to read Son, As Chimney Sweepers Come to Dust, and reread/try to finish 1984.  

I've decided that since this reading challenge is 52 books, and I most likely won't read one book each week, I'm semi cheating and counting books in more than one category if they can. If I read enough to have only one book in each category I would be thrilled, but I still have TV to watch. Not to mention a job, a dog, a husband, and friends. 

What are you reading?
