Friday Five - January Reads

I'm taking a bit of a break from my usual Friday Linkups to try something a little different.  Michelle over at Because Reading is Better Than Real Life   used to do a Five on Fridays that I always enjoyed and I've seen a few other variations on the theme.  As well I'm in a list making kind of mood so I thought I'd give start making random five lists.  Sometimes they'll be bookish other weeks not so much. This is the first Saturday of January so I'm looking at my top 5 January reads.


1. Careless Whiskers by Miranda James - I have this one coming up on my review schedule and I love this series so win-win.


2.  The Summoning by Heather Graham - I pre-ordered this one and then never read it.  Now is the time.


3. Hearse and Gardens by Kathleen Bridge - This has been on my TBR for awhile and it looks like a fun read.


4.  The Day of the Storm by Rosamunde Pilcher - I've been wanting to do some rereads and this was one I remember I enjoying.


5.  A Perilous Undertaking by Deanna Raybourn - I have the most recent book in this series on my review schedule so I've got to catch up!

What are you hoping to read in January?

  1. You might want to join Kathryn at Bookdate, she is hosting something similar.
    I already have a lot of review books scheduled for January, and a few more I’m hoping to get to including Mix Tape by Jane Sanderson, Chosen by Kiersten White and Burial Rites by Hannah Kent.

  2. I'll be mood reading this year so I'm already trying to decide what my mood is so I can get my next reads picked out! I'm still in the mood for non fiction at the moment so I'll probably go with that.

  4. These will certainly keep you reading most happily I suspect. It is interesting to do a reread. I am doing that at present and do you know I do not remember one word of it. Mind you probably was at least 30 or even 40 years ago!

  7. A list of 5 seems so much more doable than a list of 10, I think. Book Date is starting something like this on Fridays, too.
