I can not believe it. It is finally 2011. Happy New Year!
Mr. Whimsy and I are back from our travels and I am looking forward to reading.
I sure did miss you gals.
So what I want to know is, what book will be your first read of the new year?
I am trying to decide between Halo and Love in a Headscarf.
I'm working on two: Undressing the Moon (A goodreads winner) paper back version and the netgalley kindle version of The Lying Game. Once I finsh those two I will move to UnEarthy, I think. It sounds really good and will satisfy my first month's read for the DAC challenge. How about you?
ReplyDeleteWoohoo! Happy New Year, Juju! Glad you're back home and safe :)
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Juju!!!
ReplyDeleteI just started Vixen by Jillian Larkin. It's 1920's flappers so it should be fun. :)
I thought Halo was pretty enjoyable a bit slow paced though. I'll be looking forward to seeing what you think of it when you read it.
Happy New Year to you too!
ReplyDeleteMy first book is Rebecca by Du Maurier.
I love the cover for Halo and want to read it myself, so you should go for it. :)
Happy New Year Juju! So glad you had a great holiday and are home safe and sound now. :o)
ReplyDeleteMy first book was actually Unearthly, I just finished it this afternoon and could not put it down. So good! Next...I can't decide between Across the Universe by Beth Revis or The Lover's Dictionary by David Levithan.
Happy New Year! Can't wait to hear your thoughts about Halo. I'd be reading Matched or Last Sacrifice.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year. I am so excited 2010 is over (kicks it out with my boot) Welcome 2011-whoop!
ReplyDeleteWelcome Back - I hope you enjoyed your travels!! :)
ReplyDeleteMy first read for 2011 is Nightshade; I just started it.
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year, Juju! I'm still working on my holiday reads and then I still have a stack of review books left over from last year!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back, Juju! I'm reading a book that starts out with a scared woman receiving a mysterious phone call from a man whom she agrees to meet secretly. She hangs up just as her husband enters the room . . . It's called The Rhythm of Secrets.
ReplyDeleteYay welcome back! Hope you had a happy New Year! The first book I read of 2011 was Withering Tights by Louise Rennison (brilliant) and now I'm reading The Betrayal of Natalie Hargrove by Lauren Kate, which I'm loving so far!x
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Juju! Halo is a very good choice. I'm starting the new year with Clockwork Angel. =)
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year, Juju! I hope 2011 is brilliant for you :)
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Juju, hope you had an amazing vacation.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to what everyone is reading to start 2011 also. I chose Beneath the Skin by Nicci French, my first time reading her.
Happy New Year!! :)
ReplyDeleteMy first book is The Unidentified by Rae Mariz! I haven't heard of Love in a Headscarf... but will be looking forward to your review :)
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! Cute picture...as always :) Ohh! I like the sound of Love in a Headscarf! I'd pick that one because I really want to read your review. My first book up is Lily of the Nile by Stephanie Dray.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year and welcome back! You were sorely missed! I have Halo in my short stack to hurry up and read too but I'm trying to finish Tana French's In the Woods....oooo, oh so good!!!!
ReplyDeleteI already finished my first of the year (of course, I started it last year). It was Inside Out by Maria Snyder. It was very good.
ReplyDeleteHAPPY NEW YEAR!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes for the new year :)

Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm reading Unearthly on my Kindle and Dash and Lily's Book of Dares in "real" book form =)

A lovely New Year to you, too. I took an unexpected detour and read Nocturne in one sitting, a welcome change after finishing 1984. Now I'm reading the book I have been wanting to read for a year (since I got it last Christmas)-- Saving CeeCee Honeycutt.
ReplyDeleteKim: Oh I love when I get sucked into a book and read something in one sitting :) Good luck with CeeCee. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you too Juju!! :D
ReplyDeleteCherry: Thanks doll! Did you do anything splendid to ring in the new year?
ReplyDeleteI'm a little late, Juju, but happy New Year! May this New Year be even better than the last! =D My first read of this year was The Candidates (the copy I won here!) and I'm currently reading The Maze Runner. It's getting good! =D
