The Clean Sweep ARC Challenge runs between May 1 and 31. It’s hosted by Kimba and Kimberley, and allows us to clean up those ARCs that may have been sitting around for a while. There’s still time to sign up if you’re interested in joining in!
It’s definitely time for a little autumn cleaning around here – I am so far behind on my review books that some of them were published almost a year ago (*blush*).
Here are the review books I’ll be trying to read this month. Almost all of them are e-books:
- Finish current read – In the End, Alexandra Rowland – released June 2012 – Done
- Shadow of Night, Deborah Harkness – release date July 10, 2012
- Samurai Awakening, Ben Martin – released Oct 10, 2012
- Mage’s Blood, David Hair – released Oct 23, 2012
- The Mad Scientist’s Daughter, Cassandra Rose Clark – released Feb 7, 2013
- The Scrivener’s Tale, Fiona McIntosh – released March 26, 2013
- Fireflies, PS Bartlett – released March 30, 2013
- The River of No Return, Bee Ridgeway – released April 23, 2013 – Done
- The 5th Wave, Rick Yancey – release May 7, 2013 – Done
- Tesla: Inventor of the Electrical Age, W. Bernard Carlson – release May 8, 2013
Then there are these that I received from the authors for review after they were already released. I’m counting them as part of the challenge, since they’re review copies.
- Covenant of the Faceless Knights, Gary Vanucci
- The Duchess of the Shallows, Neil McGarry & Daniel Ravipinto
- Lizzie Speare and the Cursed Tomb, Ally Malinenko
- Dragontamers Daughters -Pt1, Kenton Kilgore
I think fourteen books is a high target – if I can get to ten I’ll be stoked.
Best of luck with your clean-up goals!
Yeah, I need to sign up for this one. Think it’s time to really list all those review books to get my butt in gear. Will never finish them all *glares at NetGalley* but worth a try.

Good luck Hannah! This is by no means a full list of my review pile, but realistically it’s going to take me a long time to get through ALL of them :-/
Yeah, try not to think of it as a chore, prioritise the most interesting ones. Otherwise you’ll get yourself into a slump. 🙁
