#fridayreads

This weekend I am hoping to finish:

Cinder by Marissa Meyer

This is a retelling of Cinderella where "Cinder" is a cyborg (part human, part machine). I'm about 60% through this book so far and I'm loving it. I can see the bits and pieces of the original story but I am so glad that Marissa put her own imagination into the story so it is not just a linear retelling as some tend to me.

I am also listening my way through the audiobook of:

The Host by Stephenie Meyer

Next I plan to lose myself in the world of:

Destiny's Fire by Trisha Wolfe
What are you planning to read this weekend?

March TBR

Here is what I'm hoping to read in March:

1.  The Runaway King by Jennifer A. Nielsen (began in February)
2. Cinder by Marissa Meyer
3. Destiny's Fire by Trisha Wolfe (YTBookClub pick)
4. The Spear of Destiny by Marcus Sedgwick (Doctor Who E-Shorts #3)
5. A Corner of White by Jaclyn Moriarty (April 2013 release)
6. The Host by Stephenie Meyer (Audiobook)
