February reading round-up!

This is the second wrap-up post I've done, and these are all the books, YA or otherwise, that I've read this month and a brief little description and rating. If you want to know more about what I thought of them, feel free to read my earlier posts or add me on goodreads (lizebronwen). Enjoy!


The pile doesn't look that big, but that's because I read 1 hardback, 6 paperbacks, and 3 kindle books, resulting in a total of 10 books this month. And if you're wondering how I'm doing with my goodreads challenge, I've read 19 out of the 100 books I want to read. Pretty sure that puts me ahead of schedule, but I could be wrong. So, these are the books I read...

Girl Online by Zoe Sugg - Penny anonymously blogs under the persona of Girl Online, and only her best friend Elliot knows it's her. When the family go to New York, Penny finds herself falling for a mysterious boy called Noah, and blogging about it. What could possibly go wrong? 5 out of 5 stars

Jessie Hearts NYC by Keris Stainton - Jessie is visiting New York City for the summer with her best friend Emma. Finn lives in New York City, working in insurance when he would rather work in architecture, and is in love with his best friend Scott's girlfriend, Sam.

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz by L. Frank Baum - the first book in the Oz series, when Dorothy is transported by cyclone to the mysterious land of Oz. Desperately wanting to return home, she ends up making friends along the way.
