Books In January 2015


I love books. Especially paranormal romances. Yes I'm a sucker for anything that has to do with dragons, fey, mermaids, angles. And the books I am reading are like 50 shades but better. To be honest I did start 50 shades but I have never finish it.  Don't get the hype around those books.

Back when I was in collage I hated books. Well not all , just the school books... they were boring. I had to force myself into reading it. Most during the summer I read a horror novels by Graham Masterton. I really like the books he wrote and I did read at least 15 of them . The after that my dad gave me a first book in a 47-volume story of family bloodline ' The Legend of the Ice People' and I was hooked! I read all 47 books three times!
For the past few years I have been reading a lot. I have to somehow kill the time while I'm stuck in subway on my way to work and back. It takes 45 minutes sometimes more.  The best way to spend it is with a good book. January was a great month when it come to reading. I read a quite a lot. 
I decided to make this post permanent and post it monthly and keep track of the books I read. 
I will not go deeply in the books , I take an easy way and copy whats on the back of the book :) I know I'm cheating haha . 
Any questions please ask in comments below!:)
Sorry for my Polish readers but this post will be in English. I don't know if any of the books are available in Poland.

During those wars, in a fit of grief-induced madness caused by the death of his mate, Fey shapeshifter Rain Tairen Soul nearly destroyed the world in a blaze of tairen fire.
Now, a thousand years later, the fierce Fey king must fight to save his race from the brink of extinction and once again stop the evil rising in the homeland of his enemies, the Eld. The key to his success lies in the mortal city of Celieria, where the Mage Wars began, and with a young woman whose soul sings to him in ways no woman’s ever has, whose presence reawakens the primal fury of the tairen within his soul, and whose vast, untapped power can either save or destroy him and his people.

  3. Nie znam żadnej z tych książek. Eh, przydałoby mi się zacząć czytać po angielsku, bo niby mówię w tym języku bez problemów, ale czuję, że się zatrzymałam w miejscu..

  4. I'm going to have to bookmark this to come back to later, as I'm sure I would like to read some of these. I did read the Kresley Cole and liked it quite a lot. 50 Shades annoys me so much--I only read snippets online, and commentary from people I trust leads me to believe it's got BDSM all wrong.
