Let’s be honest, the second half of the year was a major bust with me when it came to reading and reviewing books. I majorly sucked at it. Actually I kind of just gave up even trying which isn’t fair to the authors I love to support, the books I have read and loved, and my awesome readers. In the new year I have been trying to be better about reading and reviewing (I already have a couple of reviews for spring releases already written) but I still want to and need to go back to a few gems I read in 2015-2017 that I never reviewed.
Over the weekend I noticed that Alexa of Alexa Loves Books had a post called Read of Die ’18. In the post she mentions how it is similar to The Picky Pledge that she does with Hannah of So Obsessed With. It got me thinking about my own kind of pledge that I should make to myself and my readers, and that lead me to this post, my ReRead and Review Pledge.
What is a ReRead and Review Pledge? It is my promise to you that I will reread and review 7 books I have read over the last 3ish years that I was such a slacker on. What are those 7 books? Well since you asked:
Coming Up for Air– Miranda Kenneally
Read: June 21-23, 2017, I did read it as a BETA reader so this will technically be my 3rd read.
Rating: 5 Stars
A Court of Wings and Ruin – Sarah J. Maas
Read: May 1-3, 2017
Rating: 5 Stars
Tower of Dawn – Sarah J. Maas
Read: September 5-12, 2017
Rating: 5 Stars
Letters to the Lost/More Than We Can Tell – Brigid Kemmerer
Read: March 24, 2017/July 23, 2017
Rating: 5 Stars for both books
When We Collided – Emery Lord
Read: April 7-11, 2015, this was read as a draft so I could be blurbed for the ARC.
Rating: 5 Stars
The Lies About Truth – Courtney Stevens
Read: July 23 – 25, 2015
Rating: 5 Stars
There are countless more books I could add to this list, but I’m starting small and starting with these 7.
If you have any books you would like to pledge to reread and review, share so in the comments. Or feel free to create your own blog post.
Wish me luck!
Good luck with your reread and review pledge. I love this idea for you. I have 8 reviews to write currently (which always grows of course) and I’m hoping to get them knocked out this month. Wish me luck!
